MariJ Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Happy Monday everyone. Ready for another week of gratitude? We all face challenges. Some are small and some are rather large. But every challenge makes us stronger. Start a layout about a challenge you faced and why you are thankful for the experience. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LauraYB Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 Hmmm, I also have to wonder what yours will be, Marilyn.... But, you know you are surrounded by some good, supportive friends! I wonder if I can catch up? I'm in desperate need of some stress therapy, and no better way than to scrap photos of some blessings! I'll get started . . .

princessrunningfingers Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 I too, have had a couple of huge challenges this year, one still going on. However, I am seriously thinking about scrapping something more in the way of a minor challenge, relatively speaking. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted November 16, 2015 Share Posted November 16, 2015 You all are so kind to be thinking of me... And, to be honest, I'm finding scrapping a challenge to be a challenge.... but I did actually start with an ATC size before I read this.... And, I'm just back from a new dr/surgeon visit and a HUGE needle in my shoulder, which was a surprise..... was that a challenge? Time for a nap ZZzzzzzzz........ And I like that idea of scrapping a minor challenge, I should have read this thread before starting...... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

englishrose Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Mmmmm. this "challenge" challenge is a real challenge! Usually when something major goes on it's not photographable or we're too tied up in it to think about photographs. I will definitely be thinking about something that's a minor challege.

AnnBK Posted November 17, 2015 Share Posted November 17, 2015 Well, this has certainly been a year of challenges for us! I'm thinking of scrapping the "positive" challenge if I can find some time. That seems to be the biggest challenge of all! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are a trooper and we are behind you! awwww.... you make me smile... the lidocaine in the shot yesterday made the pain temporarily better, so "proved" it's the shoulder causing the trouble (SERIOUSLY??????)... He then added that he'd also injected cortisone which should kick in in a week and if that helps, we're good... If not, then we go in arthroscopically to check and clean it out. Since I've already had cortisone shots, I'm not too optimistic, but we'll see...... So nice to have such kind, caring SG friends. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MariJ Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Here's my layout - Challenge Having my car hit in January has been challenging in many different ways both physically and mentally. Having 2 friends face devastating ones, though has put mine in perspective. While I can’t actually be thankful for the experience, one thing to come out of it is what started as a physical therapy “concussion walk” to help my head heal. Amazingly, while I began with struggling to walk half a block - I’ve progressed to often 5000+ step walks. More surprising is that I’ve kept up with it. Walking continues to be helpful as I deal with life’s challenges and healing so I made my layout about challenges and perspective. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Boatlady Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 My life has challenges but there are so many out there with huge challenges so I took a different approach. Rather than tell of mine I inspire to "meet them head on." My inspiration came from two women who faced huge challenges in an amazing way. My Mom and my friend MJ. Here is my Challenge page.

princessrunningfingers Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 Nov. 18th I did my challenge page about the move I made to a new complex earlier this year. I was still trying to get adjusted to the loss of my DH of 61 years when things began to go downhill where I lived. There were just a lot of problems that were making me unhappy. I talked myself out of moving several times, but finally decided in January of this year to move. I made the move in March, and it was a big challenge because I was moving away from friends and neighbors I knew to a place where I would have all new neighbors and would have to make new friends. As a shy person this was not easy for me. I have lived here for 8 months now, and have never regretted it. I have made a lot of new friends, and am much happier in a place that suits me much better. This experience has been good for me and as a side note, I was just elected last week to be the new president of the resident council. Go figure.

Ande43 Posted November 18, 2015 Share Posted November 18, 2015 My Challenge This was a very challenging year....I had both my knees replaced within 8 months. I should have had this done years ago but kept putting it off until I began to hear rumors that my Dr was thinking of Retirement.....He is THE BEST and so I bit the bullet and scheduled the first one. I was really nervous....had no idea what to expect...what rehab would be like, how long the recovery would be....It was not bad at all. They have a Joint Replacement Center at the Hospital and are so organized. I did so well, at my first appointment with the Dr a week later I told him to put me on his calendar for #2.....I did the second one 8 months later. It was so much easier since I new the drill, so to speak....Piece of Cake LOL In and out and on the road to recovery in record time. It has now been 6 months since the second surgery and seems like it as been years....Both knees are PERFECT in every way, Flexible, Pain Free and not even a twinge ever. I was very fortunate to get the Physical Therapist I did....he was amazing and he deserves a lot of the credit for my success. He made it enjoyable and yet was so challenging.
