Day 317 of 365 Days of Being Thankful

         Today I am thankful that I finished wrapping a few more  Christmas presents.  I also ordered a few things online. I only order online when there is a physical store that I can return the item to if it doesn't fit.  I found that I ordered a lot online from Boscovs this year..

I went to the Hyperbaric Chamber yesterday and I am going again today but I haven't really found any relief from the pain yet.  At the end of tis week, I will have had 9 sessions. I hope I am not one of the people who the chamber doesn't work for, it is supposed to help 2/3 of the patients who use it. After I go in the chamber, I am going to go to the marijuana superstore with my friend Joann. I am going to get a cream/lotion with THC, maybe that will do the trick to help my pain.
Olivia's boyfriend's niece was in the hospital overnight last week.  I bought a small bracelet for her and Olivia wrapped it.  She took it to his house on Sun afternoon.  The little girl loved the bracelet and wore it and shook it on her wrist, it had small charms attached. Her cousin, Frankie's other niece who is the same age, was upset that she didn't get a gift. Olivia felt really bad but it is something that kids have to learn. For Christmas, we will give them exactly the same gift so that there won't be any hurt feelings. 

I went to the marijuana superstore with my friend Joann. I picked her up after my time in the hyperbaric chamber.  We had so much fun chatting on the drive. She bought some type of marijuana juice that you can put into foods.  She is going to bake brownies with it.  Afterwards we went to the regular marijuana store because I wanted to get the lotion that Frankie's mom told me about. We went to Paneras for lunch.  All in all, a really nice day.

Day 77 of 365 Days of Being Thankful

       Today is St Patty's Day! Happy St. Patrick's Day to everyone!  This isn't a holiday that we usually ceIebrate because Dan and I are not big drinkers.  I don't drink at all, maybe a sip of champagne at a wedding but that is it. Today I am thankful  that Olivia and I are going to the thrift store. I love going to thrift stores. I absolutely need nothing but I always find something there.  My youngest daughter Olya is a great thrift store shopper, she always finds new name brand clothing. I guess if you're pretty and thin, you look good in anything! My girls could wear paper bags and look good! Since it is St Patrick's Day, the thrift shop is giving 17% off of purchases. So I am sure we will come home with plenty of stuff we don't need.       Today was Joe's birthday.  When we called him we asked what my granddaughter Kaylee wanted for her birthday in April.  She will be 7. I asked her if she wanted a gift card/money to buy what she wanted or if

          Today I am thankful that we are having a good time on our vacation in Texas!! We didn't have any set plans and just decided to do things as we had time.  Dan really wanted to visit NASA so we did that and we all enjoyed the visit.  Time just keeps moving forward in life and it is the simple things and shared moments that mean the most.  This was the MOST crowded place we went to on our trip. After Nasa we decided to head to Galveston.  We found a great place to tour.  It was called the Bishop's Palace. It was a beautiful historical house that was once owned by a very rich couple, Josephine and Walter Gresham, and later owned by the Catholic archdiocese of Galveston and became the Bishop's home.  The woodwork inside was magnificent and breathtaking!  Olivia and Olya really enjoyed touring the home.

          Today I am thankful that we went on a vacation to Texas for the Winter break!  We wanted to go somewhere new and just have a relaxing and fun time together!  We went to see the George Bush Memorial and Presidential Library. The museum part was closed due to the government shut down but it was very humbling to visit the grave of George, his wife Barbara, and their daughter Robin Bush. Robin died at age 4 from leukemia.  Robin's legal name was Pauline.  There was a cop on duty, I guess to prevent vandalism or grave robbing.  The place was mobbed!  I was so surprised because the museum part was closed.  We could see his desk and his presidential limo inside the gate of the museum.  I am wondering who funds the presidential libraries and how they choose a place to erect the presidential libraries.  Bush's Presidential Library is on the grounds Texas A & M University. I know he attended there.  The girls googled some of the other presidential libraries.  Clinton&
