I Am Thankful For.....................

My family

Family gatherings

Delicious food (A quick rundown of what we had today - I love reading what other people's menus include - ham, fried turkey, cornbread dressing, creamed corn, deviled eggs, green beans, squash casserole, sweet potato souffle,  cole slaw, cranberry sauce, macaroni and cheese, broccoli salad, five bean salad, pecan pie, chocolate peanut butter pie, sweet tea, and lemonade!!!!)

My health

My home

The fact that my husband loves me and is trying to better our marriage

That my sister is safe, although it was sad not to have her here for Thanksgiving

My precious niece, and everyone that lends a hand in caring for her right now

Laughter

Friendships (and my j-land friends are as true of friends as any)

My BED - that I can't wait to curl up in tonight, after a long day of EATING

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!

We end up starving ourselves all day just to be able to eat just a bit more at dinner, and we always over do anyway.  I had such a headache by dinner from not eating...yeah, I still had pie!!  Take care..

This Thanksgiving was the best I am sure because you value the people around you now more than ever.  I can hear it in your voice.  I am so glad you had such a warm, wonderful holiday.  Call me anytime just to say hello.  I am so happy you all are making a go of it.  And your neice is surrounded by love.
Miss you Ash;
