An attitude of gratitude

So, here I am on another Sunday evening feeling grateful for a pretty decent weekend. I haven't done anything amazing but as anyone with CFS knows, some of the simple things we used to take for granted can feel amazing.

One of my highlights was that yesterday I felt well enough to go to the gym and do some exercise and strength training. I tend to go just once a week, usually on a Sunday if I have a clear day so I can rest afterwards. I get frustrated at only being able to go once a week as I used to go at least 3 times...however I know I am making progress and hopefully the day will come when I will be able to go more. For now, I am grateful for this once a week session as its a little bit of the old me and makes me feel good.

The second highlight of my weekend was meeting up with a friend for a cooked breakfast at the awesome Cafe Brittania in Norwich which is a social enterprise cafe set up to help rehabilitate and retrain some of the offenders at the local prison. Its great place with good food and as the weather was sunny we sat outside overlooking a great view of the city. The sun shining on my face felt AMAZING!

I hope my readers have also managed to do something this weekend that makes them happy....I would love to hear what it was :-) x
