Presents

I have received a few fun presents latetly. First, I called to find out how to order a rolling bag for my vest. I heard there was such a thing and since the zippers ripped out in my old traveling bag, it was time to upgrade. While I was on the phone, I mentioned a problem with my electrical cord. It turns out a lot of people had the same problem and they offered to send me a new machine at no charge. The rolling bag was part of the package.

Now, I can vividly recall my parents making payments on the original vest that took up a good portion of my living room. It was large enough that it couldn't fit in a car and cost more than any car my family owned at the time. My dad eventually brought it to college in the back of his truck.

My next venture was to find out how to have oxygen tanks delivered to Florida. I figured it was best to start with my oxygen company here as I can't imagine that I am their first customer who wants to visit Mickey. As it turns out, they offer a portable machine that turns the air into oxygen without having a tank. They also provide it for two weeks a year to their customers for free.

I also had my last trainer appointment at 7 a.m. this week. We are moving to a schedule that works much better for my sleep schedule and works around preschool. I managed to hang out with some of my nieces this week and keep my good name as I upheld a promise that I made and forgot. Apparently, ten year olds remember everything!

Today, I am thankful for our Barbie house that provides so much entertainment. I am also thankful for our bikes and our friends who donated their bike trailer that bring my daughter and my dog back and forth to the park. This week, one of my friends with CF had some good news and he was overdue so I am especially grateful.

Blessings,

Cindy
