I opened my eyes this morning as my Mom walked into the doorway of my room. She asked if I was awake and because I had just awakened, all I could do was raise my right hand and give her a “Thumbs up” because I could not get the words out of my mouth at that point. She pulled the covers off of me and rolled me over to my side to get me into an upright position after a number of steps in that process. I groaned when she did this and wondered if today was going to be as bad as yesterday was for me. Once I was in my wheelchair, she tilted it back to get me seated properly in it and continued to grunt. These are we’re not good signs and it made me concerned. As my legs got fully extended and I turned my wheelchair toward the bathroom to wash my hands, I smiled. I reminded my Mom that it’s Monday!
I had recently had this cheese and it was perfect for me because it was soft enough to just about melt in my mouth which is very helpful for me now. I recently learned that this cheese was available at Target. I ordered four of them and had Sean pick them up for me. I figured out that I can have half on Thursdays (my FAVORITE Day of the week) and I decided to space it out on have the other half of the cheese ball for lunch along with my protein shake on Mondays because who likes Mondays?! I have a number of reasons to NOT like Mondays and the biggest one is that my Dad died on a Monday. The least I could do is have that’s really good cheese mark that day for me!
I’ve written before about the fact that I really dig simple pleasures. This is a simple pleasure! I would title of this post #SimplePleasures but I had already titled a post that. I recently read a tweet that said when you write a hashtag, you should capitalize the beginning of each word to make it more inclusive for visually impaired people and then it would be read aloud properly. I always thought it was just me being OCD and picky but it’s inclusive! And, to say that I do not sing this song in my head every time I think of simple pleasures would be a lie!!:
