Many years ago, as a university student, I took a New Testament class from a great professor. I later became his teacher’s assistant until the time of his “official” retirement at the age of 72. He lived another 20 years, though, working and researching continuously. Today, I found a listing about him on Wikipedia, and…
I’m thankful that my eldest son has the chance to spend some time taking care of his grandpa for a couple of days. What are you thankful for today?
Today, I’m thankful for my husband’s patience as I drew and redrew part of the garden plans both inside and outside. We discovered that our wall on the east side of the garden is not straight; we had measured it along the back of the garden near the fig tree, but it is considerably shorter…
Today as I dug in the garden and planted bulbs, I was very grateful that we were able to relandscape the garden. That area of the garden had been overrun with solid crabgrass roots and I had not been able to eradicate them in over 15 years. We removed all of the soil from that…
It was a beautiful day today. I watched the sunrise, which was incredible. We had some clouds (a rare thing here) and they made all the difference. I’m thankful that the weather was pleasant (We had a high of 82 degrees F/29 degrees C today). It allowed me to work in the garden all day…
It’s the last day of the month. There are so many things I had hoped to accomplish this month: sew presents, work in the garden, and organize things in the house. A few are done; most are not yet. Tomorrow starts a new month, and I will continue to work to accomplish my goals. I’m…
Today I am thankful for my family.
I am thankful for the upcoming weekend and the good weather we will have.
Thankful for a dog who seems to feel when I am down and comes and lies down next to my chair and next to me when I am in bed (forcefully pushing the husband over!).
I am very thankful for electricity.
I am thankful for my family, and for a good friend in my daughter-in-law’s mother!
I am thankful that I could see my mother today and give her an early gift that she needed.
I am thankful for a lunch date with my husband – we try to get 2-4 dates each month and this was our first for November this year. He had a very rough week and we both needed that reconnection. We took advantage of a lunch special at a local restaurant and had a delicious lunch for not much.

I am not particularly thankful that in every letter I get from a health insurance company that there are three extra printed pages I immediately recycle, telling me my I can receive mailings in any number of languages, that I am not being discriminated against, and that I have rights to appeal the decisions of the company.
But I am very very glad that I have these rights, and thankful for the people who made sure of them.
And I am glad that health mailings are now written for the understanding of the consumer, not for the company as they used to be.
Nov. 21–I’m thankful I’m able to hire Heather to help with the gardening and housework. We swamped out my daughter’s room. That’s about all we did, and I am certainly grateful for her help.
I am thankful for the book recommendations from people who posted in Frugal Accomplishments. I have found some wonderful things to read. Thank you!
I am thankful to be able to spend time with a friend who I haven’t seen in about a year.
I am thankful that I was able to get my hair done, cut and styled. I always cut my husband’s hair and last time I asked him if he could try to cut my hair but he didn’t want to chance it. I trimmed it myself and then decided to get it professionally layered.
