I tied my shoes this morning and guess what......The bow was in the center of the shoes not off to the side.

I did it without holding my breath, grunting and face turning red.

Odd how small things like this make us so happy.

Expect trouble as an inevitable part of life, and when it comes, hold your head high. Look it squarely in the eye, and say, "I will be bigger than you. You cannot defeat me."

That is so funny cause yesterday I stepped outside at work and sat on the curb and was thinking to myself wow I have never been able to sit like this before EVER! I had my arms around my knees (knees to chest) and I had tight jeans on and I was comfortable. It is great how we do enjoy the little things that so many other have taken for granted. Tying my shoes and turning blue while doing it is what really made me think seriously about the surgery that and my daughter of course.

What Sawyer would call me on LOST: ladybug

"People will argue with you that getting what you want in life isn’t something you can learn, if you’re destined to be one of the worlds winners as opposed to one of its perpetual whiners, its because you have been born with the right talents and temperament and have a big dose of self-esteem, ambition, and good judgment." Kate White

Okay, I don't approach this subject but I wast told by the nursing staff that tongs were used by bigger than myself people to do their toiletries. I was a contortionist.
