Thankfulness Thursday

My friend Patti nominated me for a gratitude challenge on Facebook.  I am supposed to post three things for which I am grateful for five days in a row.  It seems like a nice idea and I thought I would start here, although I will also post this list on Facebook later today and I will follow-up with the facebook challenge.  I might continue to pursue this idea here, hence the title of today's post.  Or I may not.

Today I am thankful for:

1.  Being able to get out of bed and stand and walk pretty much to my hearts content.  It has been 3 1/2 months since my surgery and I am still filled with grattitude when I awake in the morning and stretch my toes, even the toes on my left foot which remain partially numb.

 

2.  Freshly picked tomatoes.

 

3. The scent of roses on a summer breeze.
