Had a couple of days when my pain meds don’t seem to be working and disruptive sleep patterns have come to bite me. Of course when this happens you get those unhappy thoughts returning.
The dogs had to be walked, so they took me to the beach. We don’t have the best beach. It’s not the prettiest beach. It’s normally more windswept than anything else. But today it was like taking a happy pill. Ok we all know happy pills don’t make you happy....but it did, for at least a little while lift my spirits to a more even keel.

So I’m thankful for the small things. Thankful the rain stand away. Thankful the sun kinda came out. Thankful I live so close to the beach. Thankful the beach was almost empty. Thankful to my dogs for being needy.
