….is it almost Thursday already??? The day I choose to post to my blog. Usually I have something all written up and scheduled, but it just occurred to me – I have nothing.
But I do have so much. I can complain and moan and groan, but I am truly blessed.
- I have a home that I love. It’s kinda getting old like me and it certainly wouldn’t win any awards on a ‘home show’. But…. it’s mine/it’s ‘decorated’ (if you can call it that) in MY taste and I’m comfortable here. (Well mostly. I do need a new cushion for where I sit or a new sofa or something 😉)
- I have four wonderful kids (not kids anymore, but they always will be to me) – 3 sons and a daughter. They all live far away, but keep in touch regularly.
- They have wonderful families and I have eight (count them – 8) wonderful grandkids – some married, some engaged – all in all a great bunch!
- A great church that I’ve sorely missed during the last few months because of COVID.
- Great friends who’ve checked on me/brought me groceries/mowed my lawn/and generally cared.
- I have three great furkids 🐾🐾🐾who keep me company ALL the time. Koda, Boots & Emma Grace (who all just happen to be pretty close as I type this). And yes, they do follow me to the bathroom 😁 🐺🐱🐈🐾 SO, I had to create a cross stitch chart about them. 😎
Obviously, there’s SO MUCH more that I have to be thankful for! The leaves are turning (my favorite time of the year), and falling. I love to see leaves in my yard.
-
- Part of my front yard
-
- I love pines, this bough was lovely hanging down low
-
- Along my driveway as I walk to the mailbox.
-
- Still Along my driveway
Not the brilliant colors elsewhere – but I’m so blessed with what I do have. I have places to walk and lovely things to see right under my nose. Thank you Lord!
