Here I am again on the beautiful Sunshine Coast, it's still raining. It has been for nearly two weeks.

The last 24 hours I have had a blood pressure monitor strapped to me and it reminded me of having a new baby. Every twenty minutes this THING goes off and records your blood pressure. In the night it only goes off every hour. I had quite forgotten how tiring it is to have a new baby and be sleep deprived. Anyway I am thankful that I live in a country where we have medical expertise to monitor these things.

I read on my granddaughters blog of 100 things to do before you die. I know I can't do any of the things of her list but I will make a list of my own things that I want to do. I want to be able to complete a crossword puzzle in ink. I have nearly done it a few times but always do some of it in pencil (I don't want to die yet).

I am thankful to God for every day He gives and the blessings he gives us along the way.
