Hump Day Gratitude


It's time again for your favourite weekly post! What are you grateful for?

I'm grateful that I can walk. I saw two long-time friends on Sunday. One whose feet was swollen up bigger than a softball because she had been on them all day. It was quite alarming but she said it was normal. The other is using a cane and had to keep stopping as we walked to the subway because she was in so much pain, due to years of standing on her feet as a cashier. She's had two surgeries on it and might need a third.

While I had that broken toe scare in the summer, and the bad sprain over the Christmas holidays last year, and occasional sprains in years past, I have never been that bad. I ask a lot of my feet and the only time they let me down is when I was running myself down anyway. Thank you feet. Thank you ankles. Thank you, legs for being there for me.
