Author Notes
I’m thankful for so many things.
Every morning when I wake up, I am thankful for my bright, comfortable, spacious home. I am thankful for the two goofy pups that bring me so much joy. I’m thankful for employment, health and the best family and friends that a person could ask for. And I’m thankful for a God Who listens to me grumble and groan about what I DON’T have and loves me anyway.
I am so blessed.
And I’m thankful for a holiday that reminds me to remember that.
Speaking of Thanksgiving, does anybody have any leftover turkey? How about cranberries or brussels sprouts? I think I can help you out there…
