It seems appropriate that today on my anniversary I would be thankful for my husband:
1) I am thankful for four years of marriage.
2) I am blessed to be married to not only a wonderful man but one who is my best friend, my lover and my biggest supporter.
3) I am thankful that I'm married to someone I enjoy spending time with.
4) I am thankful for better and worse, richer and poorer, for good times and bad, health and sickness, and for every other thing.
Thank you God for my husband. I have been truly blessed.

A rap about Jesus
I am a fan of the fact that we do not all of us worship God in the same way. I am also a fan of rap music. This song is raw, but I really like it's honesty. Check it out:

Thankful Thursday 10
Today I am thankful for:
1) The lady next door who shared with me an intimate hurt because she knew I would pray. In seeing people's deepest hurts I see God, because we are fragile but God has given us one another.
2) My beautiful niece Natania - life is so precious and she is a gift.
3) Simple pleasures: Mt. Dew, pumpkin spice candles and Friends marathon's.
God is good, Christians say this all the time, but do we really believe what we are saying? I do, God is great and greatly to be praised!

Why oh why?
I have always been a klutz, I have no idea why some people are prone to this and others are not. A friend of mine in college told me that he thought it was tied to our emotions, the more emotional a person you are the more likely that you will be klutzy, I don't know if this is true but it seems to fit.
In the last few weeks I have stopped wearing the surgical boot and begun wearing normal shoes, and by normal shoes I mean that I have one pair of sandals that I can wear that does not hurt my very fresh surgical scar. I have to wear these sandals with everything, despite the fact that they are navy blue. I suppose I could go and buy a new pair of sandals, but I just can't seem to justify buying a new pair of sandals that I don't like for a healing process.
At any rate, last week I was shopping and managed to ram my bad foot directly into the shopping cart wheel. My little toe was scraped badly and the toe next to it began to bleed profusely. You know how there are times when you get cut and within seconds the blood is everywhere? Well, I quickly reached into my purse and grabbed a bandaid to cover the bleeding toe (I always have several in my wallet specifically because of being prone to injury).
Well, my foot already looked pretty ridiculous, with an enormous bandaid on the side where the scar is still healing and a huge blister on the other side, so adding a bandaid to the top of this toe just enhanced the bizarre appearance of my foot. But this is not the end of the story.
Sunday I was shopping again. As I walked I again rammed my foot into the shopping cart wheel (how did this happen?). The pain was immediate, but this time I had hit my little toe directly. At the time I was convinced I had somehow ruined what the surgery had fixed. Several days later I now know that while my bunion surgery is intact, my little toe is broken.
Since my surgery (July 2) I have injured this foot six times. Six times I have been injured by no-one's fault but my own clumsiness. It's beginning to get ridiculous...I just want this foot to go back to normal, is that too much to ask for?
