That Time of Year
I decided to look back and see what I was blogging about last year at this time...my blog just celebrated it's one year birthday. Cute little tyke.
Well, funny thing, last year at this time I had just purchased my Sting tickets and was trying to figure out what snacks to bring to a game day. Today, having just purchased U2 tickets, I am also going to a game day to which I am bringing snacks. I do know what I'm bringing though: this dip my mom used to make...it's just a bar of cream cheese with those tiny shrimp and cocktail sauce poured over it with crackers...and some chips and dip for the picky eaters.
Looking on to the next day, I was commenting about my grandmothers moving...well, just last night my mom was telling me that my grandmother is moving in with them for a few months until her space opens in the new complex. The one she was initially going to move in burned down during construction. At first she was afraid that jinxed the place and wasn't going to move in, but the alternatives were moving to Burlington which is too city for her or staying in her big, cold old home for another year...plus the new place is going to be really nice.
Back to perusing last years blogs. I came to a blog about me whining about how sick I was feeling...YESSSSSSS I found something. I found a big change for the better. My health. I know I talk about it a lot, but you'd be surprised how quickly I start to feel sorry for myself and how physically abnormal I feel even after all the surgeries that have improved my life so greatly. It's a normal thing according to the people I have talked to on all the chats about my health stuff....But, looking back and remembering how totally physically crappy I felt last year at this time...it is a good reminder at how far I've come and how thankful I need to be for what was able to be done. It's truly a miracle, when you think about it.
So, a lot has changed and a lot has stayed the same in a year. Who knows what another year will bring.
