Memorial Day

Thankful for my Father’s service and sacrifice (killed in 1966 before I was born) even though I never knew him. Thankful for my path because of him.

Thankful for my Step-Father stepping in when I was three, and his 26 years of service (two tours in both the Korean War and the Vietnam War).

Blessings.

Leader

My supervisor is this image of a leader. She inspires, motivates and encourages. I have been incredibly blessed by her leadership, and hope that I can do the same one day.

Thankful.

Knees

So after a 115 pound weight loss:

Apparently per my rheumatologist I am no longer bone on bone with my knees!  I am to take it easy with exercise, and to build up the muscle around my knees, but for the most part, I can start doing things I want to do as long as my body allows it.

Dancing, yoga, jogging—really anything I want to try.

2 Years ago yesterday…was my gastric sleeve surgery and while I am not at my lowest weight I am no where near my heaviest! I have had some regain but no guilt. I am so very grateful for my path here.

So…blessings today and always!
