Thankful Thursday - April 25, 2013 and Blissful White Wednesday, and Amaze Me Monday!

Afternoon Sweet Friends,

Hope you have had a beautiful spring week,

so far.........if not, maybe it will be a beautiful

Friday and spring weekend............lol 

I had a good Monday and Tuesday, but saw something
accidentally on facebook that was very discouraging to
me, as it involved people that I really love, and have
been a bit down yesterday and today, so started cleaning
the bathroom trying to put it behind me, so tore apart a
floral arrangement in there to wash the flowers, so thought
maybe I should play some, since I had those flowers out
(after washing them of course) and maybe that would cheer
me up,  and actually it did, that along with a lil sunshine to
boost my melatonin levels!  lol

So then decided I should make it a Blissful white Wednesday
post too.......so we will see how you like it,  have way too many
pics so decided to use some now and some for next week.

So.............here we go.......................


#1
I am thankful
for this pretty and modern looking  pitcher
Dee and Jerry got me for my birthday, so
decided to make a Blissful White Wednesday
post with it.

#2

I am thankful

my son made it to Spain safe and sound.

and hope he can have a good time.  Hard

to leave wife and baby so soon.

#3

I am thankful
that a lil boy named Luke who had cancer and
underwent a bone marrow transplant is home
and cancer free......best news I have heard all
week.

#4
I am thankful
for the bright sun shiny days we have had lately,
have been getting out there and working on my
tan,  so I don't have those pasty white legs when
I wear shorts..............lol

#5
I am thankful
for dear longtime friends who will listen and
empathize with you, but will also tell you what you
 need to hear,  not just what you want to hear......
We all need at least one friend like that,  they are
truly a gift from Heaven............

#6
I am thankful
that we got some pics of Miss Brooklyn printed
finally...........for my Grammy book!We also got to
 see her on Tuesday and took a few more pictures,
  she is really starting to respond so much, she is 
just so adorable!!

#7
I am thankful
that Dee and Jerry are coming over on Saturday
to help us move our bedroom furniture around.
Have been wanting to do that for quite awhile
now,  so that will be a thrill for me.

#8
I am thankful
for christian music and how it speak to me so
much,  and so many times just when you need
to hear it the most.

#9
I am thankful
that I had a good appt. at the dentist and only
have one more crown to be done,  but probably
want be until August,  as our dentist is going on
maternity leave in May,  and want be back till
August I think it is...........so I get a break too!  lol

#10
I am thankful
for a new chicken casserole recipe I am trying tonight,
and hoping it is really good.  I will let you know.

Made a veggie casserole this week,  that had rutabega,
carrots, parsnips and onions and hated it................lol
It was terrible................it had dumplings on top,  and
thankfully we did like that part.............so it wasn't a
total loss.  That is a rare happening I have to say,
Thank Goodness!

#11
I am thankful
when we hear about people who are so kind and

 generous. Read on yahoo, about a lady who gave a 

wedding to a couple, because the bride has an

 aggressive form of breast cancer and they think she

 could only have a few months left, but the love and

 generosity of those that were involved gave the bride

hope she can beat this thing.............and I so pray

she does.......................

#12
I am thankful
that doing this post cheered me up so much!!
A great benefit to blogging,  takes your mind off
things sometimes.............lol
and thankful for you sweet friends who come
by to visit as well.................
