💪🏾 Thanks For Everything, NovaCare
After 6 months of hard work, today was my 39th and last PT session for the right frozen shoulder and impingement at NovaCare in Bala Cynwyd. My range of motion is about 90% better and I've been told the rest should return in time with continued therapy on my own at home. Thank you to Kathryn (left) and Nicolette (right) for taking over my sessions after Matt, my original therapist, moved on to a new job at MLH Home Care & Hospice last month. Also, shout outs to Nadia, Max, and Tamika for filling in as needed. I appreciate the water bottle they gave me as a parting gift and it was so hot today, I started using it immediately. Last, but not least, special thanks to my hubby for his coaching and support every step of the way. I'm grateful to ALL for the teamwork!

😇 Stepfathers Are A Blessing From God
There's a man at my house, he's so big and strong.
He goes to work each day, stays all day long.
He comes home each night, looking tired and beat.
He sits down at the dinner table, and has a bite to eat.

Never a frown, always a smile,
when he says to me, how's my child.
I've been studying hard, all day in school.
tryin' to understand the golden rule.

I think I'll color this man father.

I'm gonna color him father.

He says, education is the thing if you wanna compete,
because without it son, life ain't very sweet.
I love this man and I don't know why,
except I'll need his strength, till the day that I die.

My mother loves him and I can tell,
by the way she looks at him, when he holds my little sister Nell.
I heard her say just the other day,
that if it hadn't been for him, she wouldn't have found her way.

My real old man, he got killed in the war,
and she knows she and seven kids, couldn't of gotten very far.
She said she thought that she could never love again,
And then there he stood, with that big wide grin.

Footnote: In 1969, this song ranked #2 on the R&B charts and #7 on Billboard's Hot 100; the composer, Richard L. Spencer, won a Grammy Award for Best R&B song in 1970. Click on the record label for a link to YouTube and listen to this classic gem, the only one of its kind, which pays tribute to all of the stepfathers holdin' it down out there. And, always remember, as my pastor so eloquently pointed out in a sermon once... Our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ was actually raised by a man who played the role of a stepfather and his name was Joseph. So, never underestimate the importance of the part you play in God's divine plan. You are loved and appreciated much more than you know. May God continue to bless all of you!

⏳ #ThrowbackThursday
There is only a corner of L&T in the Bala Cynwyd Shopping Center still standing as of today. The store opened in 1955 and closed a few years ago to make way for new apartments and retail stores. And, even more recently, we lost Chili's in the same shopping center and Landmark Americana @ Saint Joseph's University on 54th Street near City Avenue. Well, like the song says... "Everything must change, nothing stays the same." - Benard Ighner
