Today I am scheduled to have surgery on my ankle. It turns our I not only fx the distal fibula, but additionally tore the deltoid ligament. I will be glad when the surgery is over.
I didn't sleep much last night. Apparently pre-op nerves and an over active monkey mind. I thought about getting up at 3 am to write this post. But wisely decided to wait til morning.
But in my monkey minding last night I thought of all the things I am grateful for:
I am grateful for business class and first class air travel. All flights over 5 hours should be this way:)
I am grateful for my adorable grandson, his wonderful hugs and happy laugh. I am grateful for my lovely daughter, her decision to go to massage school, and the awesome massage she gave me yesterday....sooooo needed!
I am grateful for my yoga asana practice, even though right now it is confined to non weight bearing poses, at least there is something physical I can do.
I am grateful for holistic and allopathic health and medical modalities, as that is what is going to get me through this.
I am grateful for my dear friends and family who have private messaged me, texted me and phoned me to check on, encourage me and offer assistance. Thank you all so much!
And I am most grateful for my dear Husband, who has tended me, made dinner with my incessant instructions, cleaned house and put up with my grumpiness and frustration with myself.
Grateful!
