Gratitude - November 26th 2007

[J.C.]

Monday,

start of the week

for all, but the last week

of November.

Next will be December a month

to finish the year,

a month when it is so easy

to say ''Love you all'',

a month when wishes are made,

a month when we are granted good wishes.

Grateful for the good day I had,

the reading I did at night

after wrapping some gifts and

grateful that the pile is much

bigger this year, more friends

made during the year.

Have a good week

Jackie

Grateful that thanksgiving is OVER. The day passed smoothly for the family, but was pure agony for me. Luckily I am "the great pretender", so no one knew the wiser....except maybe Connie, who called to let me know she was thinking about me, and how Thanksgiving day was also exactly 10 months to the day my mom passed away- and that I wasn't ok, and THAT was ok too!!

It was just us and Rick's parents and my 1 brother. None of my other family came or even called. It felt very small when last year it was a full house.

Did I mention I am grateful Thanksgiving is OVER?

I am thankful for my new cell phone...I've needed one for a LONG time and this one is the coolest of the cool.

I am thankful for my UGGs (boots) which I don't get to wear often in Texas. It was 30-40 degrees here the past few days....that's COLD for us!!

And always, I am thankful for my husband and kiddos and for all of you.

I am thankful for Jackie for being here everyday to remind us to be grateful and thanksful and that life IS good! (((hugs Jackie)))

I am thankful for my little dog's playmate, Holly. I keep her each weekday morning for about 4 hours. She and PJ make me smile and laugh outloud.

I am observing how they enjoy everysingle minute of their time together and never sit and mope anticipating the time Holly must go home.

I am taking notes and trying to live my days for each moment vs. worrying and stewing over what has been or what yet may be.

((((Jackie))))

I am grateful that I have most of my projects caught up and can spend the next two weeks packing for my trip and enjoying my home. I am looking forward so much to time with my family and grateful that I will be spending the holidays with them.

I am also grateful that I have my home and friends here to come back to.

Today, I am thankful that this darned cold seems to be a wee bit better. I have had this cold for eight long days and am more than ready to feel better again.
