Ruhu's Journal, 04 May 14

Mom's happiness yesterday with moving back to her own apartment was short-lived as she woke up with back pain today! She's had problems with a disk in the past requiring an epidural shot. We shall see. She was assessed yesterday by the long-term care insurance's nurse who agrees she needs the higher level of careā€¦ without even knowing of today's issue.

But, I'm feeling good and easily staying my course, now on Day 7 NSNGng. DH & I had a nice dinner out last night with our friends and I feel good having eaten mindfully & really enjoyed my meal -- a nice salad to start, grilled calamari (one of my favs) and broccoli rabe.

I've been to early workout & am heading up to work now as I'll be away for over a week. But, with Mom's news, I thought I'd better get on here & journal, and spend a little time in prayer first. Care to join me?

God grant me the serenity
to accept the things I cannot change;
courage to change the things I can;
and wisdom to know the difference.

Living one day at a time;
Enjoying one moment at a time;
Accepting hardships as the pathway to peace;
Taking, as He did, this sinful world
as it is, not as I would have it;
Trusting that He will make all things right
if I surrender to His Will;
That I may be reasonably happy in this life
and supremely happy with Him
Forever in the next.
Amen.

And I take a minute to remind myself that on on this one day & through each one meal, moment, bite, thought & emotion, I'll pray, breathe, journal, log & express my way. I'm so very grateful for each of wonderful you and out special place here on FS, my family & IRL friends, that Mom's back in her apartment -- back pain & all, that I'll see my boy in 2 days:) and Mom in 6, and having the health & wealth to live this life I love! xoxox
