Mornings Take a Little Longer to Get Ready

I realized this morning how much longer it takes to get ready. Having a catheter and associated piping certainly increases the time. What used to take me 10 minutes (top) to shower, shave and get going on a weekend morning is now taking 45 minutes. Don't get me wrong, I am not complaining. I can still get ready on my own and don't need assistance from a third party.

One of the blessings of this challenge is the awareness of good things in my current and past life. Taking longer in the mornings is just an inconvenience. I can still get a hug from my grandson Dustin (which I did this morning) and I can still enjoy a shower all by myself (even though there are shower police in the house a.k.a. "A").

I guess what I am saying is that I am feeling grateful this morning. My grandson Dustin is standing beside and getting ready to help me publish this blog. He will help me check the spelling and we will have a little fun reading some of the words. I am off to one of my 12 step meeting at 10 AM. I need a meeting fix! More tomorrow.
