I love this manifesto of sorts and thought I would share it with all of you.It sums up my philosophy of life pretty well .

I enjoyed my trip back home to see my sister a lot and loved seeing my niece and nephew so much. I only wish they were closer.

In the pat couple of months I have been having trouble with my left knee and last Monday night it went out.I had to have an MRI which showed and meniscus tear which will probably require surgery at some point in the near future. This was not what I wanted to hear right before the holidays.

I know though that even with that piece of bad news I have much to be grateful for and I am counting my blessing everyday.
I hope to get back to blogging regularly and posting book reviews. I have a few book reviews to share this week. I have read 56 books so far this year.I know this doesn't seem like a lot compared with other people but is good for me as I work a full time job.
The weather is definitely changing here . This weekend was our first big storm and MT Hood got 24 inches of snow. I actually heard thunder last night for the first time in four years. The sound of thunder in itself is something to be thankful for.

I hope you all are having a good week and I invite you to follow me on Twitter and Facebook( see links on right).

Welcome back Yolanda. Very sorry to read about the problems with your knee. That will not be fun to deal with; as a nurse, you are on your feet all day. Wishing you all the best.
