receiving the mesage on how greatful I should be for what I do have and not dwell on what I don't

I began my Sunday morning at 7:30 a.m. by getting up to do my arm and leg exercises with my weights. After doing so I then began to do my stretching. Once I had done so I preceded to do my ankle exercises hopefully someday that will be strong too. At 8:35 I then shaved before going out into the kitchen to have some homemade blueberry muffins my mother had made this morning with the blueberries I have been picking. Once I had my fill, I then returned to my bedroom to take my shower and get ready to go to church. Once I was ready, my mother and I had left the house to go pick up my grandmother. Once we were at church we went to sit in front like we usually do. The message I receive each week from the cerman really makes me think. on how great full I should be for the things I do have and not dwell on the fact that I have had three strokes, I'm legally blind, I can't drive, My short term memory is really bad and how I have been struggling since my most recent stroke to get back on my feet and strengthen every muscle in my body once again. on and on and on. But I do spend every day thanking god for what he has left me with and what I am able to do and be great full that I can get up every morning and go to therapy and that I had the attitude to keep moving forward. I will get there, I know I will. Once the mass was done, we then brought my grandmother back to the Pierce House. My mother then brought me to Hannaford so that I could pick up my medication. We then arrived home at 12:30. Upon doing so I had eaten some lunch. I then brushed my teeth before laying down to rest. I had slept from 12:40-3:00. I then got up and spoke to a friend on the telephone before sitting down to play words with friends on my I Pad. At 4:00 I then did my speech and breathing exercises. I then took a shower before sitting down to blog. I then went to eat my dinner.
