Gratefully Accepting Lessons Learned in 2020
As we all know, this year has been like no other in recent history. I am very guilty of saying it's been a horrible, horrible year. However, when I realize a few things that have changed in my life, I'm not sure it's been that horrible. I've learned some valuable lessons this year. First, let me tell you WHY I say this year has been horrible.... March 9th, 2020, life as we know it in our family changed forever. My husband Troy suffered a heart attack, coming very close to not making it. I was told 30 minutes was about the time he had left when we arrived at the ER. A stent was placed and he was good to go. (Gratitude #1) But this totally changed our world. Troy had smoked for 50 years, and he led a pretty sedentary life. I mean, he works and he works hard, but he really didn't do any kind of exercise to get the heart rate up. He is now up to 2.5 miles on his walks. I joke that next year he will be running a 5K with me! He also stopped smoking. So proud
