Frozen shoulder exercises!πŸ’›πŸ«ΆπŸ’›πŸ’›

 









When a person has more than one diagnosis or situations going on in their health life, it’s really difficult to manage all of it, especially when he had frozen shoulder for me. I had it a couple years ago on my right arm, but it was due to the residence at my mom‘s place a resident who pulled my arm. I had a frozen shoulder for a long time that side healed because of exercise exercises is this year on my left side is my frozen shoulder, but we don’t know how that started at either. 

So it was heart failure, and diagnosis of diabetes now frozen shoulder pain it’s a lot to handle well. You have to deal with everything else.

But God only gives us what we can handle right !!!??  It’s hard to believe but his grace is sufficient for when we are weak he is strong through us !!”  My fave scripture of Gods promises !! 

My shoulder everyone is getting so much better !!!!    I can now sleep at nights !!”  πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ’•πŸ«Ά

Fire subs today !! πŸ”₯. 4-9-25

 Sometimes going out to eat can be tricky most most places have gluten free options and whole wheat 🌾 works well with diabetics too !!! 

I don’t think it’s a low salt option since my weight been so good we had a busy day !!  I made it as healthy as I could! 


Turkey Ranch no bacon πŸ₯“ no letus !!!!  Delicious 🀀 


               Always check your blood 🩸 sugar levels 2 hours before & after your meals !” It gives your body a chance to adjust the amount you consume in your meals!!


My husband and I had a productive day today, which involved a late lunch. His choice was fire subs, whereas I decided on whole wheat turkey, ranch, and tomatoes πŸ… with zero orange Fanta. After drinking half, I was delighted to discover my sugar levels were great two hours later!

As I embark on a monumental quilt project using my neighbor's memory shirts, I am filled with immense gratitude and humility to work on them. I've rediscovered these adorable quilt blocks that I initiated three or four years ago. These Pooh bear blocks, which I had abandoned due to a pattern issue, have now become a triumphant accomplishment, a happy accident that has blossomed into a breathtakingly beautiful creation! πŸ»πŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›πŸ’›#MyTuesdayMood.

It’s been a crazy long week but we made it through and God carried us through ! My husband and I spent three - days together!   I finally completed labeling my baby quilts πŸŒΈπŸŒΈπŸ’›πŸ’›, a true labor of love. We gifted seven of them, and the recipients were overjoyed! When they asked about their value, my husband  told them , a welcome addition to our next year's taxes. I'm thrilled that these precious quilts will bring comfort to tiny hearts at the children's hospital NICU, a cause close to my heart as I was an NICU infant myself.
