We don't have long to kibitz tonight before the site goes down for maintenance. So how about this? Let's practice some gratitude, just to get set for the weekend in a good mood.
Tell me something good that happened to you today or this week. It could be something big or something small -- doesn't matter. Just something you can feel happy about!
I'll start off. I had terrific news today. I've had a couple of very painful biopsies done on my finger in the last month -- one under the nail bed and one last week in the matrix of the nail (where it grows from) -- looking for skin cancer because that fingernail looked very suspicious. No cancer, baby! Nope! I just happened to grow a cluster of extra nerves in the matrix, a little benign growth that just happens to be very, very sensitive. Now I can heal with a calm mind. So I am very thankful today!
I can also add that Spring is looking particularly beautiful today. Flowers in Portland are gorgeous and so are the trees.
Tell me something good in your world... Also, share any weekend plans, menus, or anything else that may be on your mind. This is an open thread.
Kitchen Table Kibitzing is a community series for those who wish to share part of the evening around a virtual kitchen table with kossacks who are caring and supportive of one another. So bring your stories, jokes, photos, funny pics, music, and interesting videos, as well as links—that you think this community would appreciate. Readers may notice that most who post diaries and comments in this series already know one another to some degree, but newcomers should not feel excluded. We welcome guests at our kitchen table, and hope to make some new friends as well.
Recommend current diaries and share on social media for impactful viewership and activism. Your support of Kitchen Table Kibitzing friends is appreciated.
