1. The beautiful fall weather. The sunshine and cool breezes really make for a perfect day!
2. That James didn't have to go to work first thing this morning....I have him to help with grocery shopping.
3. Grandma's recipes. I got them out this morning and it brought a tear....so glad she gave them to me for me to keep her tasty treats going.
4. Fall leaves. They may be all over my yard right now, but they are just so pretty to look at and it brings memories of me and Jhanai gathering fall leaves to press.
5. My good neighbor friends. They live on the other side of town but our schedules are so different that we don't see much of each other, but we manage to call each other twice a week!
that Mary and Dale got the money they've been waiting for.
that Mackenzie Jo is coming to spend the night.
for a bountiful Thanksgiving menu.
for His blessings everyday, not just on Thanksgiving.
for Yankee "Christmas Tree" candles.
that there is even a small possibility of snow soon.
for all my Jaded buddies.
1. Jhanai getting an A in her Math class! She's doing so well in school. 2. Having the schedule work out for my best interest.....I didn't have to crawl in a corner and cry! 3. Having most of my shopping done for dinner.....now...who wants to cook it all for me!? 4. For weekends! I can't wait for this weekend. Mine & James annual get together in Portland. My husband actually looks forward to this Crafts Fair!
5. Every friend I have made here with the Jaded Ladies....you are all wonderful!
1. The sun shining, after all that rain yesterday and last night!
2. Diet coke-man I really needed it this morning! it is my coffee.
3. Getting my grocery shopping done early today! It is going to be a madhouse later!
4. DH being the sweetie he is. He asked me what I wanted for Christmas and I looked at him like "Are you serious?" he has done so much for me/us lately, I don't want or need anything more. That is waaaay more than I could ever want. Well, maybe a sewing machine!
5. For all my Jaded Lady friends who keep me coming back. I probably would have given up on ever losing weight had it not been for the support and friendship of you ladies-for that I am forever grateful.
