I know it's November 19th and Im way past due on posting what Im thankful for. However on a sad note Its' been a difficult month. Losing a friend and now my son has also lost a friend from high school, only 22, way to young. both funerals same day same funeral home. crazy life......

Thankful.......
This isn't very creative, but is heartfelt.
Grateful for: Our good health- all of us
Charlie, my best friend,and husband of 34 years
Charlie B, my oldest son, Jill (our love for scrapbooking) and Zella B
Andrea, Dallas and Ella
April, soon to be our home nurse and boy could we use one!
Randall, no longer my baby. grown into a fine young ,man
The memories I have of my mother and father
Awesome parents growing up- we never had much but it never seemed to matter
My brothers and sisters who I don't get to see as often as I would like
My friends, my job, although retirement sure sounds good, 20 years at US Airways, but started working 38 years ago.
Grateful I can still see my computer screen and don't have carpel tunnel after 20 years working on a PC
Thankful we have such a beautiful home, and aren't upside down in our mortage.
Thankful for our farm house in Illinois. great summer getaways there.
Thankful that my family enjoys my cooking that they look forward to our holiday meals together.
I have so much to be thankful for, I am blessed.

  2. Kimberly, So sorry for your losses, I wish I could give you a big hug. Your positive outlook is an inspiration. It's hard without our loved ones, but we do still have so much to be thankful for. Thank you for that example.
