Thankful Thrusday. Why didn't someone tell me

Ok here I was going over some emails thinking about what I would post"tomorrow" for Thankful Thursday and it dawned on me Duh, today is Thursday. I am such a moron this week. But it is still Thursday even though it is evening so I think I can redeem myself.

I am thankful that it is payday. The cupboard was bare but not any more.

I am thankful that I am able to maintain my attitude even those around me are going south so to speak.

I am thankful that the weekend is upon us and I have some time off.

I am thankful for the very thoughtful bookmark that I just got from Edie today. Talk about a nice surprise. Thanks Edie, I needed a pick me up.

I am thankful that although everything around my house seems to be breaking all at once, I so far have been able to fix it all myself.

And with that I think it is time to get ready for bed.

Have a great day, I mean evening,
Greg

I kept thinking today was Friday!

Last year, both our dishwasher and microwave died in the same week. I actually found it harder to live without the microwave and decided I wanted to replace that first! We went out to buy a new one and happened to find a great deal on a dishwasher as well. So we ended up buying both!

Blessings, Leslie

Greg,

I think we all have days like that or worse yet, weeks where time just escapes us. I completely missed it last week. I too am thankful that despite all the things going wrong for you, you are great about being able to fix them yourself. You are one talented man!

I love the way you always find thanks in even the things that aren't so great! You always lift my spirits and help me to look at things differently.

Hope you have a fabulous weekend!

It's Sunday as I'm reading this Thankful Thursday, and I am feeling very thankful. Both kids are home, and our house is all sparkly and warm and bright. The Christmas season is here, and I am loving it.
God bless you and your family!! I pray you have a healthy and happy 2010.
It's okay that you forgot it was Thursday; that's just a sign of old age. I walk into a room sometimes and cannot remember why I went into the room in the first place.

Hey Greg,

Just wanted to stop by and introduce myself and thank you for the Christmas Card! Wasn't that a great idea that Kat had so we could meet other bloggers?

Anyway, loved the card. Thank you and Merry Christmas to you and yours!

Hey Grandpa, What's for Supper

Image
Were havin fried chicken so crisp and hot, With tatters and gravy make sure and take a lot. There’s green beans and fatback and biscuits with butter, And cold cold milk, straight from the udder. And fer desert, get ya some pie, There’s sweet tater, apple and of course yer favorite shoo-fly. YUMMMM YUMMMMM Hee Haw was one of my father’s favorite shows. He loved it for the ummmmmmm music. Or so he said. This morning, I was thinking about what to have for supper. A couple of things came to mind. First there was some chicken in the refrigerator but I remembered Salmonella and decided not to fix that. I bought a beef roast yesterday but now I am having second thoughts because of possible Mad Cow Disease. I could always make a salad but we might get e-coli from the lettuce. Ok the only thing left is water but with all the mercury and arsenic in water these days, maybe I will just sit quietly and breathe. I just hope there isn’t a smog alert. Then I thought why not just go out for dinner. The...

If you are coming here from the "Time" article, please feel free to look around. I didn't find out until today that they used a link to my blog. Welcome. Very quickly, My wife and I got married at this plantation. It is right around the corner from where we live now so if you have any questions about it, feel free to email me and ask. In a few days, I will post some more photos of the house. I wrote an interesting story about the plantation as my last post. Check it out by clicking here . Thanks to my son, Gregory for taking the pictures. He is making a power point presentation for Irving House Winery. You can see it if you come for a wine tasting.

The legend of Flat Stanley (A Horror Story)

Image
There are a few things in life that upset me: Spiders, rude people, unruly children and spilling my coffee to name a few. But nothing gets my blood boiling faster than hearing the name Flat Stanley. On the surface, Stanley sounds like something innocent, but I am here to tell you that he is evil and has the power to tear your family apart. Flat Stanley was the brain child Dale Hubert, a third grade teacher from Ontario Canada. Back in 1995, he decided to start this project to inflict pain on unsuspecting parents and students as well. The concept is simple: You take a picture of Flat Stanley and decorate it. Then you cut it out and there you have it….Flat Stanley. Then you send it to other people and they take stupid photos of them with Stanley or you take him on vacation with you in order to ruin your vacation and Dale should be shot or better yet put in a pot of boiling oil and slowly fried and tortured and and and Ha Ha….Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha….Whahahahahahahahaha Sorry this happens every ti...
