Truly Thankful


Besides all the usual stuff I am always THANKFUL for... family, friends, a great job, a car that continues to start, good health, a place to live, etc. This year I can add a few new things to the list...

A brother who lives close enough for frequent bathroom visits when the pipes freeze- buckets to fill the drain water when the washer drain is also frozen- a clean kitchen floor thanks to all the water- space heaters for every room- a heavy coat and a few inches of snow to cushion a tumble down the driveway-no broken bones or bruises-a brother who still comes to snow blow even when he has another house to worry about.

This past week has truly been a blessing in many ways. How especially thankful I am to live now and not to have been a pioneer woman.

I am so glad you posted about this - I have been worried about you. Almost sounds like you need a warmer, safer, non-flooding place to live :) Way to be positive. Love you

3 words 4 U... I Love You!

Don't ask me why this clip doesn't fit in the column like it should... but whether it does or not... it doesn't change how much I love this song!

Sometimes that's all that needs to be said - I love you! And I do.

from a distance...

I heard this song for the first time today. The artists name is Taylor Swift. I love the words much more than the video. It would seem for me that love will always be... from a distance.

My kinda day... "if only"
