Giving Thanks


Thanksgiving is a time for giving thanks for everything that makes our lives special.

Here are some of the things I am thankful for:

My husband
My friends
My cats
Good food
Wine 
Diet beverages
Being safe and warm in my house
Being able to buy groceries
Dining out
Summer days
Going to the beach
My sense of smell
My health
Exercise
My leaf blower
Electricity
Being loved
Clouds
Sunlight
Evening strolls
The freedom to be myself

Wishing everyone a wonderful and safe Thanksgiving!

Quote of the Week



 
Once you accept the fact that you're not perfect, then you develop some confidence.  
- Rosalynn Carter





I believe this is true.  We can become so concerned with making mistakes, that we begin to doubt ourselves.  Once we are no longer burdened with the fear of imperfection, we are able to accomplish more and thus gain confidence in ourselves and our abilities.

Deep Thoughts


Happy, Sad
Puzzled, Mad
Bored out of your Gourd
Agitated, Frustrated
Revolving, Evolving
Filled with Joy
Filled with Pain
Preaching, Teaching
Forward Reaching
Magic, Tragic
Receiving, Achieving
Fantastic, Spastic
Hot, Cold
Timid, Bold
Fearful, Cheerful
Shrieking, Freaking
Calm before the Storm
How do you do
Not a Clue
What does this Friday say to You?

Nursery Rhyme Redo: It's Raining, It's Pouring


It's raining, it's pouring
And the cat is snoring
Upon the pillow beside my head
And there he will be until morning



This seems quite appropriate considering the rainy day here.

The Chilly Side


Waves on the Gulf
Result of last night's cold front.
It's a bit cooler today.

Have a good weekend everyone!
