I am thankful that today I was not alone…that I could go to church…eat till I was stuffed…listen to good music…walk in peace in the woods…talk and text relatives on the phone…that my children had places to go for Thanksgiving being so far from home at college…have an online community that I can learn and share with. Peace be with all of you!

  10. I’m so thankful that we were able to host Thanksgiving at our new house today. It went beautifully. We had to re-arrange the tables more than once, but finally settled on an arrangement that worked. People had enough room without feeling crowded, ate a ton, and enjoyed the day. I’m thankful to have a house, where I was inside, out of the rain that was pouring down, surrounded by people I love and who love me.

  13. I am thankful for the friends and their children that welcomed us into their home and shared their meal with us. I am thankful that my dad who is 89 and has dementia felt comfortable enough to tell me he didn’t want me to visit today because he has so much company the last few days it was bothering him. My niece is taking him out of the house for a couple hours today(Friday) to get a flu shot and his groceries for the week. I am thankful for her as she has stood in my place because I live too far away to help. I am thankful that the ankle I messed up is only sprained (and now deal with tendonitis) and not broken. I am thankful that last night as my children and grandchildren traveled it was rain and not freezing rain or sleet that they drove through. I am thankful for you Brandy and everyone that posts here as you have helped us see the light in tunnel from the debt we had when Hubby and I lost work and lost everything. When it overwhelmed us, depressed us and almost defeated us. I would come to your blog and read out loud and it would give us hope and not feel so alone Blessed be

  14. I am thankful for this blog and the wonderful folks I have “met” here. I’m also thankful that while the income would have been nice you chose to keep your blog as ad free as possible. The side ads are gentle, relevant and not obtrusive. I am thankful that your income has headed in the right direction, that Merivenes knees are mending, the Juls job and health is better and that those who have had to face many health issues know that they are not alone and that they have a rooting section here, waiting to offer hope, prayers, ideas and love. I am thankful I was looking for “pantry” one day and the web (GOD) brought me to YOU. And I am thankful I was smart enough to read the website, get hooked by the wise musings of a caring and sharing woman and that she then got a blog going so I could meet all these wonderful, doubting, sharing, scarred, honest and loving folks who give of themselves in so many ways. You all are the best things to happen to me in many years. Thank you!

  15. I am thankful for a healthy family (we are now over the stomach bug), loving boys, and all of my needs met.

    Today I ask for prayers for those in our community who have been evacuated from their homes due to the wildfires in the area. We are also praying for the firefighters who are working around the clock and their families.

  16. I’m thankful for wonderful neighbors who invited us to share their Thanksgiving celebration and who act as surrogate grandparents for our son, especially now that all of his grandparents have passed on.

  17. As the others have said, I am a huge fan of your blog. I admire your blog, and I admire the way you and your husband raise your children. You are an inspiration to me, a much older woman, trying to stay on a budget and give my family the best things of life. Thank you.

    I am thankful for my husband today. He is so good to me. I am so blessed.
