Nevertheless, here are my PHOTOS OF THANKFULNESS
SATURDAY: My family. (So obvious, but still true). The three handsome men in my life who I love deeply and who have been a major support and encouragement to me throughout the ups and downs of my life. I am so proud of them!
The Boss
Son #1 Son #2
SUNDAY: My Church which, after nearly 40 years, is my other family. What would I do without them and what would I do without the Lord?
MONDAY: Scruffy, my sweet and beautiful cat who brings me so much fun and joy. There is another cute photo of him on my side-bar. He is a sweet, sweet charmer.
TUESDAY: My home -- the outside, front and back, some of which I helped design. You can't see the patio on which I'm standing, but it has a waterfall and bird feeders. My favorite summer time spot.
WEDNESDAY: My Ladies' Wednesday Afternoon Bible Study, when I learn as much, if not more than they do. This group has been going for 3 years. Before that I had another group for 10 years. Such a blessing!
THURSDAY: My home, the inside. It's not that I am so proud of my home, but that it is just how I like it -- convenient and comfortable. We've had many years in this house and lots of opportunities to make changes. It's never perfect, but it reflects me.

FRIDAY: My hobby of painting and drawing, which I found later in my life but which gives me hours and hours of pleasure. ( Water colors and Prismacolor pencils).

Thanks for this opportunity to share. I may not be able to make it for the next couple of weeks -- but
I WILL BE BACK!

Your men are very handsome. I can sure see you in your sons.
Your home is lovely inside and out and of course your loving cat just adds the best touch.
What would we do without the Lord, church and our Bible studies.

You have a lot to be thankful about. Nice to have such a nince family, nice to keep them close, but isn't that a young Captain Kirk on the right?
What a lovely, peaceful place your home is, Chris. You have three handsome men in your family, and a very darling cat.
Your back yard is just gorgeous, and it's wonderful you discovered your talent for painting and drawing.
I certainly enjoyed visiting with you for Coffee Klatch Friday.

As far as the shoes go Chris, some days it helps and others not. I cannot wear Dansko's at all but do well in Earth Shoes.
