Who knew what a blessing emptying the dishwasher could be? I certainly didn't...until God brought it to my mind this morning as I emptied ours. I noticed that I had a lot more dishes to wash since DH is home from the hospital and his appetite is increasing. That's a blessing, since that will make him stronger and get him to a place physically where he may be able to cut back or even stop the dialysis treatments.
I have a wonderful kitchen window near my dishwasher, and I can look at my street from that window and see my "new" neighborhood. It is a blessing to live in such a quiet, peaceful place, in a house with enough room for DH and me, with all my "stuff". It is a blessing to live in a neighborhood so near so many of our friends who have been so wonderful to help DH and me during his illness and recovery at home. It is a blessing to have enough money to be able to afford this house, and to be able to pay the power bill to run that wonderful dishwasher.
It is a blessing to have enough food to eat, and people with whom we can share that food. Thank you, God, for the opportunity to empty my dishwasher.

What a great attitude, Susan! I try to be positive but it's not always that easy!! Glad it's going well with your dh.
Susan, you are an incredibly strong woman. With God in your life, you will get through this pain.
