 Greeting Sweet Friends,

Hope this Thursday find you tremendously

Thankful for so many good things in your life.
It is always good to count your blessings no
matter what is going on...............and the
worse the time, the better the counting
of our blessings is....as it helps us gain a
much needed perspective on this life.

#1

I am thankful

that I got to start the day off with a visit from

a sweet friend coming over for breakfast.

#2

I am thankful

that my SIL got resolution on a situation that

has been going on for quite awhile now,  and

also for the ways the Lord protected her and

watched out for her needs.

#3

I am thankful

that our china hutch disaster did not produce

disasterorus results.  As I am still amazed by

it all,  and really do not remember  moving

out of the way.  Think I might have had some

divine help on that.  If you missed that post
and would like to see it,  just click here.

#4

I am thankful

for our new bedroom layout,  we are under

the fan more,  the room looks larger this

way, and it is just a nice refreshing change.

#5

I am thankful

that our room change has not cost us a single

penney so far,  however,  I am looking for

something to go over our bed,  just not sure

what yet...........a simple one piece solution,

is what Dee and I both think is needed.

#6

I am thankful

that Dee is coming over on Friday to do my

hair,  so we will get some one on one time.

Always love that.

#7

I am thankful

that we got to watch Brooklyn twice this

week.  We enjoy her so much,  and she

is just growing like a lil weed.  We have

discovered if she is tired but fighting it,

if we take her outside on the porch swing 

she just loves it and goes right off to sleep.

Ohhhh....wonder how these got in here!  lol
Sorry just can't help myself.....

She just loves these lil hanging flowers in her pack n play. She is 
81/2 weeks old now.................and has surely run off with her
Grammy and Grampy's hearts right from the start, and it happens
again every time we see her!!

#8

I am thankful

that my friend who got the much need test

done,  got good results,  and that the Dr.

actually took some much needed time to

really talked to her,  and he now things her

adrenals glands may have just shut down.

(That was encouraging to me, as I know

someone else that happened to and they

were able to help her, so was able to pass

that info on to my friend as well)

#9

I am thankful

that today is the National Day of Prayer, and

 that our church is having a prayer service tonight.

Every year it seems like the need is even more

needed than ever before.  Am praying for a 

good turnout, but of course, we can pray any

time, anywhere,  but think the Lord really loves

 when we gather together. Just like the scripture

 that says where ever 2 or more are

gathered in my name, I will be in the midst

of them.

#10

I am thankful

that I was able to use Dee and Jerry's steam

mop to clean the tile floors in my bathrooms.

They came out really nice.

#11

I am thankful

that we had leftover paint still for my bed-

room walls,  and we touched them up and

you could never tell we did it,  and the 

walls look very fresh and clean.

#12

I am thankful

that I have been finding time to read more,

just by myself.  Hubby and I started reading

together,  so sorta quit reading as much by 

myself,  so am back to that,  and then hubby 

and I are trying to finish up different books, 

that we are partially done reading. Also,

found quite a few books in my armiore when

we were moving things around that we have

not read at all yet. (Had to take all the books

out to be able to move the armiore, so got

rid of a bunch too.)  So it looks nice, clean

 and organized now which could be #13.....lol

Well, there you have it..............

Thanks so much for your visit,  they are 

always greatly appreciated,  and your

comments greatly anticipated.
