Beverly,
My mother talks so much about out-houses that it makes me think about indoor plumbing. Imagine having to go outside in the cold or using a chamber pot! Yuck!

Today I am grateful for:

- This thread that reminds me of everything I have to be grateful about.
- My country (USA)
- The large selection of food that I have
- A comfortable home
- Family, friends, 3FC, indoor plumbing, cell phone, Internet

Cheryl - I can't imagine having to use an outhouse or chamber pot. It IS a big gratitude.


- everyday is a day to get all of it right.

- good evening last night with our cousin and his wife

- my warm house, my warm coat, my warm gloves, the heater in my car - I am grateful to be warm on a cold, cold day

- music - I could listen to it all day (and sing along, sometimes, too)

- my family, my friends, YOU ALL, internet, cell

- figuring it out
