thankful...

During the month of NOVEMBER....

as is probably customary in many homes.

we TRY and remember all the things we

are THANKFUL for.

Things like family dinners around a Thanksgiving table come to mind.
And just because i can....and find HUMOR in silly things.


but seriously i am thankful for a great number of things.

my list would include:

1. family, a husband and children who love me,
INSPITE of all my
imperfections.
2.friends, who see me with forgiving and loving eyes.
3. a warm HOME.
4. a flush toilet and hot shower.

8. Caffeine Free Dt. Coke...(what's the point, i know...but hey it's MY LIST)

DONE WITH SCHOOL!!!!!!

find FUN and JOY in simple things.
