Wednesday May 7, 2004....




    The rain falling on the roof at work this morning was like there were a million drummers beating on the roof with their bare hands. It was awesome!  I stopped mid sentence to listen and then had to apologize to the customer..  Out the window it was dark gray and you couldn't see the building across the Stream.   It didn't last near long enough.
    Wish I wasn't so cold all the time though.  This Thyroid disease really sucks!  My hair is falling out, I can't lose weight, I'm always freezing no matter the temp, I can't absorb my iron so my anemia is really bad lately and my memory is going.  Thank you Graves Disease.
     But I am grateful for the rain storm and the dark clouds and my hoodie that I would gladly live in all year round. Not much of a fashion statement I know but then I never was into fashion.
     Grateful the day turned out so good.  Grateful that boy 2 got some driving in today and was smiling and laughing.  Grateful daughter didn't have homework and went to bed without fights ensuing.  Grateful tomorrow is Thursday (even though I wish I didn't work on Friday) Grateful the week hasn't been too bad. I've laughed and smiled through every problem today and it really has been a joyful day.
      Here's hoping tomorrow will be just as lovely and perhaps the weather will start clearing up for Mothers Day on Sunday.  Someone took my shift at work so I don't have to work on Saturday and get I my full Mothers Day weekend. (another thing to be grateful for.)
