Eons ago when I had a blog I used to do One Good Thing Wednesday urging people to comment with one good thing, no matter how small, that had happened in their life since Sunday.
I'm bringing it here.

Mine- I actually gave some new people ideas for living with chronic pain.

Now it's your turn.

Oh. Here's my one good thing for Wednesday.
The pipes didn't freeze and we kept power.
Your turn.

@Shelter 😁 caramelize 1/2 a diced onion in about 1/4 stick of butter + cayenne. toss into a pot of half veg stock w parsley, garlic, salt till the onions are almost transparent, add 🐓 of choice and a cup of diced 🥕. Simmer till 🥕 are mostly soft, then + in celery (my leaves had gone soft but I dice up the whole stalk) Use your 🐓 cooking savvy to finish the chicken. Talk to it while it simmers, it's like a spice. Slip bay leaf in when its not looking.
I then add pre-made rice to make it happy.

@Shelter all amounts are to your preference. Except the carrots. Unless you love them, it gets a bit sweet.

@Coffee_and_Salt
I got 16 to eat carrots in soup by buying bags of matchstick carrots.
I love carrots.

@Shelter I finished work on my pickup I started before the big freeze. Then I went to an in-person meditation meeting this evening.

@Shelter

I have survived a bout with kidney failure, massive infection, excessive fluid around heart and lungs, and severe dehydration, all in the same hospital stay ... and somehow, here I am, on the mend (albeit slowly).

@XaoslordErie @Shelter
That's not how to chalk up points...keep on mending.j6

@XaoslordErie
I'm so glad you are still here.
Keep healing, and I hope comfortably.

@Shelter

I've been meaning to post this as my own announcement but,

I GOT AN APPOINTMENT WITH A SPINE DOC...FOR TOMORROW!! And, I made the appointment just this afternoon!

I've been dealing w/ the cancellation of my appt w/ a neurosurgeon for my back, which was supposed to be early Jan & since then it's been one frustration after another.
I was at my PT for my foot at a non-hospital affiliated clinic & I mentioned to the therapist about my back & she suggested I check w/ the schedulers.

@see_the_sus

You did? That's great news! I know you were having one nightmare after another trying to get something going, so I am very glad indeed something is happening for you at last!

@Shelter I found one pharmacy that has my daughter’s seizure medicine in stock. It is the generic version, not the brand version she typically uses, but it will hopefully be okay. Will be calling her neurologist today. Her brand version has been on back order since Dec 12.
