What brought you joy today?

@grldweiner66 agreed

My dogs who love us unconditionally!

Great night sleep can't ask for more 🙂

@northoftheborder My mom would say "This too shall pass". The state 4 diagnosis got me for sure. The things some people endure with a spirit like yours always amazes me. 💕

Remembering that if I could be find a way to be joyful paralyzed in a hospital bed back in 2021 with a prolonged post-surgery ileus, a suction tube down my nose into my stomach, an arm full of IVs, steroid-induced diabetes, and a new stage-4 cancer diagnosis, I can damned well figure out a way to be joyful now with most of my mobility back, a decent appetite, no IVs, and my cancer in remission for over four years.

I've had a nasty respiratory infection (cold? RSV?) for a month that's got me down, but it's just that and nothing more, and I'm on the mend.

As the Anglo-Saxon poet wrote over 1,000 years ago, "Þæs overeode; þisses swa mæg" (that passed, and this can too).

@zenren14 Hallaluah !! Sometimes it's ths simple things that bring great joy 😊

Last big shopping day for a while I gotta get something 🙂

Eating a plate of pasta without a cough.

Deciding not to mention my own advanced prostate cancer when someone told everyone at the dinner table about his very mild case 14 years ago.

Living with advanced cancer is part of who I am now, but after 4 years it's not my whole identity, and there was no need to steal his spotlight.

It feels like progress.

It's Sunday AM and it fells like winter has arrived in AZ 🙂

This wonderful time of year shopping,football and family 🙂
