Changing Thoughts to Change Your World

I have not been out of the house now in five days.  My blow torched throat has cooled down, but the head congestion has begun.  If I could turn off the drippy nose, I might feel human again .  Laney has been on the couch with me and has become a couch hog.  She likes to hog the covers and lay on top of me.  I am grateful that she has not abandoned me.  Her intentions to watch over me has been quite comforting.  I miss the comfort of my bed, but do not want to sneeze or cough on my husband.  I am ready for this virus to go bye-bye.

I just noticed that the room I am in looks different.  I am resting on a different couch than I usually sit on.  It is amazing how sitting in a different spot gives one a different perspective of the room.  Seeing things from a different angle makes me aware of how much I really do not pay attention to.  I can now see my plaque that says change your thoughts and change your world.  Looking for the positive in all situations always makes me smile.  My thoughts today are of how grateful I am for my funny husband and the fact he still makes me laugh even when I am sick. Maybe he'll bring me a bowl of laughter for dinner.  Hint, hint my dear husband, please bring home dinner again.

Well I was just thinking about the 10k that my husband and I are going to do in May.  We have not made it to the track now in about a week.  Between my illness and bad weather, we are very much off of our schedule.  Hoping I start feeling better, and we can get back on schedule.  Feeling the way I do right now, I don't think I could make it around the track one time.  I'll keep my mind focused on feeling better and walking the track in my dreams.  Give someone a hug for me today, but only if you're healthy.  Life is beautiful !!
