Thankful Thursday


Well I had an awesome week last week. Those that follow me on Facebook know that things have finally fallen into place and I was able to get some much needed rest. I have so much to be thankful for so let me get right to it.

We have had some really great weather this week. We got a break from building fires in the greenhouse which means I got some extra sleep. I am so thankful for the warmer weather.

This week I got some financial issues in order. Without going into detail let me just say that it is giving us some relief. I am thankful for that.

The warmer weather allowed us to get some yard work done and I am thankful that I am in shape enough to do yard work.

I am thankful that I am doing well on my diet. So far so good. I am thankful that I have the will power to lose weight still at age 45. Ahem.

I am thankful that I remembered to do this post on Wednesday night instead of having to rush and get it done at 4 am on Thursday. I know that isn't that big of a deal for some people but I hate having to rush.

So please join me in being thankful this week. I am sure you have something to be thankful for.

Greg

Greg C! I was so excited to see your comment on my blog. It's like I just ran into an old friend. :)

I'm so glad things are going well for you and that 2011 is a lot smoother for you than 2010. I feel the same way and I am thankful for that.

I'm also thankful for work! I've been cooking for a family a couple nights a week and catering parties too. And I've also gotten some writing work. Woohoo for work!!!

Greg, things are looking up for you, and that such a blessing.

Always enjoy your lists of thankfulness.

I'm thankful today that the Geek Squad is coming tomorrow to fix a problem I have with my computer.

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...

7 Christmases

Image
Last week, we went and saw the movie, 4 Christmases. It was pretty funny in certain parts but a few areas were less humorous. Well this isn’t about that movie. This is a meme that I invite you to join in if you like and tell us about 7 Christmases past. No tagging involved here. Just play along if the urge hits you. So here are 7 things about my past Christmases. 1. The stockings were hung. As far back as I can remember we had stockings but ours were really socks. We didn’t have a chimney though and hanging them by the kerosene stove in the hall just didn’t seem right so we would put them on the edge of the couch by the Christmas tree. We didn’t get toys in our stockings like kids do these days. We usually got the same thing every year. We got an apple, an orange, some nuts with the shells on them and some individually wrapped hard candy. Coincidently our father liked those kinds of nuts and my mother liked the hard candy. 2. Always a shepherd, never a wise man. Every year, the church ...
