I don't really know what to write about tonight. I just feel compelled to write. So, be warned...this is one of my rambles.
Today my family gathered to take my mom out for Mother's Day lunch. I dressed up. For the first time since my toe amputation I wore a shorter skirt that showed off my legs. I gave up the fear that I always had to wear socks and wore comfortable shoes that matched my navy and white outfit. I looked really good, not to toot my own horn.
My best friend drove down to join us. I'm really glad she did. Her mom died a year ago and this gave her something to help her through the day. They were very close. She stayed until early evening. I think she enjoyed the distraction. She got the tour of my parents' new home and we all had a nice visit there.
My remaining big toe is sore. It looks like I've bruised it somehow. I imagine that I've whacked it on something, kept going, and didn't think about it until the soreness appeared. I know that I worry far too much about this sort of thing. I guess I'm a little gun shy.
This might be a good night to listen to my meditation CD when I go to bed. I need some happy thoughts.
My blood sugar was ok about an hour ago, so I know I did ok eating today. I forgot my blood glucose monitor when I left the house. So, I didn't test as often as I normally do. I did try to be sorta kinda good. All is alright in that department.
I got the pictures back from Snapfish and they turned out awesome. They were a big hit. I put them in an album and gave them to my parents. They seemed very happy to get them.
I keep dreaming about yarn and the things I can make with it. I've got a loom project going right now and I'm really wanting to try crocheting a rug soon. I think the law of attraction is at play here.
I suppose this is getting long enough. If you've read it all, I thank you.
