I am thankful that my husband was able to come home to visit for Thanksgiving.

I am so thankful for all you. Thank you especially for the reminders of how you struggle. It reminds me why I created my website and why I am now writing this blog in addition to my website. I am so grateful for that. Click on the image above to get a…
My brother sent us a beautiful sympathy bouquet that also included a vase that I love. We were given some sliced watermelon and 2 loaves of bread. My mom gave me a pot of white spider mums. I am going to plant it in the front garden. We returned the extra dirt that I purchased…
Last week was a busy week! I sprouted alfalfa seeds. I made steak sauce. When we were asked to bring a refreshment to a cub scout event, we brought popcorn that we popped on the stove, rather than making cookies (which would have been a lot more money). I watched some shows for free on…
I harvested asparagus, lettuce, sugar snap peas, green onions, and parsley from our garden. The peas and onions were used to make my museum pasta salad. Our sewer company switched from annual billing to quarterly billing last year. I have been expecting my new quarterly bill but had not yet received it. When my bill…
I stayed home all week except for Saturday, when I left to go garage sale shopping with my mom (she drove). We hit up a couple of community garage sales as well as a rummage sale. I went with a list of needed items and Christmas gift ideas. I found several books for the children that…
I picked peaches, Mission figs, Bartlett pears, grapes, and apples from the garden this week. We enjoyed some mushrooms that a friend gave to me (she received them in her CSA and she doesn’t like mushrooms). I took some photos of the children. I found a free online typing instruction course for Winter to use…
I am thankful for my husband.
I am grateful my close friend’s adult daughters want to recreate their childhood tradition of the four of us baking Christmas cookies together, so we’ve scheduled that. ❤️
I’m thankful we have finally come to a decision about where to retire. It’s been more and more difficult for us to live alone as we age. I feel like we will be entering a new stage of our lives and I’m looking forward to being close to our children and some of our grandchildren.
I hope you had a wonderful time together! I’m thankful for the miracles of modern medicine. I’ve just finished a round of chemotherapy cream on my forehead to get ahead of some pre-cancerous spots. I look horrible, but it’s all good!
As silly as it may sound I was extremely thankful for ”finding my way back” to my Pinterest account which I couldn’t access for 6+ months. I really do need something beautiful to look at during the dark and cold winter months, and there it is, all neatly categorized 🙂
I am thankful for having a daughter and her family live near by! Yesterday I popped in to grab some compost and we chatted for half an hour while I helped with lunch prep and played with her youngest, who is 15 months old. Having kids in other states and countries make me so grateful to have their family so close and attending church together! It is a gift!
I am grateful for warmer than typical weather.
I am grateful for a good night’s sleep and a warm home to sleep in.
I am grateful that my Mother’s fall off the step-stool resulted in only a bruised ego and a small bruise on her bottom and nothing more.
I am grateful that my parents live only 3 blocks away from us and are still living independently at 91 3/4 and 87 years of age.

I am thankful that Thanksgiving left lots of leftovers in my fridge, which meant less grocery shopping and easy to prepare meals. I am also grateful to watch Christmas movies on my streaming services. I try to be selective, but I love the variety of movies that are out there. One I watched recently, which I hadn’t seen before, was “The Man Who Invented Christmas,” the imagined story of Charles Dickens as he wrote “A Christmas Carol”.
I am very grateful to I who picked up a coupon I had, then went to the store and picked up the free item. She then went and picked up the Christmas cards I made from my photos. So I was able to write almost all of my Christmas cards today. And it saved me a lot of money as I did not have to take a cab. I am really thankful.
Brandy, just saw on Krazy Coupon Lady…..La Moderna pasta .48 on Amazon.Thank you for making time for us and sharing your life with us.
I am grateful for your lovely blog and all of the kind and kindred readers and helpful comments. You are all a blessing and make life better.
