I am thankful for free tickets to a new museum in town, the friend who sent me a link for the tickets, the friend who went with me, and the opportunity to go. It was amazing! We were both really impressed.

On Monday, a friend of mine brought over pear baby food that a neighbor had given to her. I’ll be able to use it for Ivory in the upcoming months when she is ready for food. She also brought over strawberries and some lettuce that she had been given from someone who does some grocery…
I bought no food or toiletries this week. I made two baby bibs (drool bibs) using fabric that I had on hand. I repurposed part of a sheet to make my daughter’s Greek costume (an Ionic chiton). On the bottom edge of the chiton, I sewed some trim that had been given to me. I made a barrette for the…
This post contains an affiliate link. I cut Swiss chard, white and yellow zinnias, and Thai basil flowers from the garden. I arranged the zinnias and basil in blue canning jars on my table for centerpieces that lasted all week. I also picked the first of the Meyer lemons from one of my lemon trees (just…
I cut cucumbers, red noodle beans, thyme, basil, and lavender from the garden. I downloaded 10 free geography worksheets from education.com. They have a limit of 10 free ones each month. I printed free penmanship worksheets, dot to dot worksheets, and math worksheets. I do these each week but I don’t usually list them; links…
Last Week’s Goals: 1. Change the school schedule slightly so that my 5-year-old and 7-year-old have reading with me first thing in the morning, with 5-year-old first and 7-year-old after he is done doing his after-breakfast chores. This worked well 4 of the 5 days last week. I will be continuing this one this…
I sent the children on a walk to gather some pinecones from an empty lot near our house. They brought back plenty for our Christmas decorating. I cut boxleaf euyonomous from the garden to decorate in the house. We watched the First Presidency Christmas Devotional. We used an HDMI cable to connect the laptop to…
I am thankful for your dedication to this blog. The information you and others have shared over the years have helped me to help my family, myself and others. There were times when life was giving me a hard day and I would read about your children or others’ lives and it would turn my day around.
I am thankful for a day at home mostly, to cook gifted pie pumpkins and put up a gallon of pumpkin. I love pumpkin!
I am thankful to the person who returned three sets of military service medals
to a thrift store which in turn donated them to our military museum. They belonged
to my friend’s late father and grandfather. They had been in the possession of her brother who died.
She is very grateful.
I am thankful to all those who fought in World War I and II. Tomorrow is Canadian Remembrance Day. I pray for peace.
I am thankful my last hope to get financial help to replace my hvac, instead discovered it wasn’t actually broken. A year without heat and ac, and it turns out the thermostat which was initially replaced to fix the issue, got power, but was not actually functioning when installed. No less than 5 repairman said it was the furnace that needed replacing. This person checked the wiring connections and determined the new thermostat was faulty. This is a $20k savings!
Wow! So happy for you!
That’s a miracle, Maria, and I am so happy for you!
You have to wonder how often this happens. Glad you finally got a reputable repairman.
I am thankful for my daughter’s phone call today. Was having a crabby day and I am grateful to chat with her about her life at University.

I am thankful for the ability to access medical care. It is truly a miracle when you think about it!
I am thankful for the continued abundance in our garden. My husband in particular works hard in the garden to produce vegetables, fruit, herbs and flowers and due to our mild climate ( southern UK) we are going into winter with fresh veg to pick and plenty in storage. I am thankful for this every day.
How wonderful to go to a museum and see things in a new way!
I am grateful for my colleagues from our previous employer and the good memories we share of work well done.
Brandy…is that you at the bottom in the museum photo? I expanded photo but still not sure. Looks very interesting, whatever it is!
Remember the chaos in our world and pray for peace.

Yes! I went with my friend! We had a wonderful time. We went with zero expectations, not knowing almost anything about it, and were delighted!
I am thankful for my husband and I having finished up all the winter chores outside, except for putting the grill away because it will be nice this week and I am going to partial grill hamburgers to freeze for the winter. I just pop them into the oven when we want burgers and they taste fresh off the grill! Saves going out to a restaurant to have that grilled flavor. Looking forward to the resting season of winter where most things aren’t on a timetable to beat the cold weather.
I am thankful for all the veterans in my life and in service to this country.
I am thankful for an amazing, brilliant red sunset that I can see from my bedroom windon.
I am thankful for a warm home on cold nights.
