Maybe you guessed that this would be our word of the week. We always try to be positive, and we also find that being grateful and counting our blessings, no matter how small, has a positive impact on our well-being and mental health. This week, we have a number of things to be grateful for. First of all, to celebrate that I do not have hyperkalemia, I cried happy tears. I posted the result in last week's post. Truly grateful for the news, I added it to my list of things to be grateful for ...
Adjust is my Word of the Week
This week and in the weeks to come, I will have to adjust to some changes in my life. Well, our lives. They are all doable, I think. Who was able to adjust to the changing of the clocks on Sunday? We just told ourselves not to rush it but to take it slow and […]

March is my Word of the Week
Straight up, I chose March because there is everything to play for. Having things to look forward to is helping us to get out of the funk we are now in with this weather. We ventured outside in the back garden a few times this week just to check how cold it is, lol. One […]
