Well, another Thanks Giving Day come and gone, with all the fixins.
I have to say that late last week, with Thanks Giving looming, we were not even sure if we would be able to have a decent meal, never mind a whole dinner. It is amazing how things come to us, how we are taken care of in so many ways.
Monday came around and we had a Turkey, and the week provided for enough money to buy the rest…yippy!!!
It was a small group of us, my husband Chad and I, his two kids and our two kids, and Hope a friend that is staying with us at the moment.
We had invited several people whom normally would not have had a place to go, however, they were all taken care of this year, which made it a little more intimate, compared to normal…it was kinda cool actually.
Today is a day of thanks, ending a season of growing, harvesting if you will, and looking forward to the winter months, when we can rest, until the spring when the fields are planted once more…or at least that is how it used to be…LOL…for the farmers around here anyhow, most of them have jobs outside farming anymore.
Still, the feeling is the same, so today I give thanks for my family, who have stood by me and have stuck together, growing closer and stronger everyday. I’m thankful that we have a roof over our heads, and that we are generaly speaking very healthy.
I can not begin to tell you how thankful I am to my friends, whom I have not seen in many years, and whom still hold me dear to thier hearts, as I do with them…such support and Love can not be bought.
I am grateful and thankful that our world is truly becoming a better place, even though it is not evident thru the news services, and it seems often that it is becoming worse, however, when I talk to people around the world, I am seeing and hearing a different story…one person at a time.
There are so many things to be thankful for, that I can not begin to really address them, but one thing I can say is that everyday I am thankful for these many things, and more.
Everyday is Thanks Giving day for me and my family, and I hope for others as well, as I believe strongly that the more we are thankful for what we have, and positive in our Attitude, the better the world will be around us.
Love Peace Joy and Gratitude
