Our FIRST Snow...

This was our First Snow for this season.... it was still dark out at 7:00 am.

The snow was still falling and it was one of those very hushed, quiet snows....you could have heard a pen drop. BEAUTIFUL!

BLACK FRIDAY SALES...

Well this is the "first" year in a long time that I was not out there at 4am shopping.
Although PP was and still is. I believe she left around 3:30 this am....I am going out later this afternoon... which is still suicidial!

The Rock and I spent a quiet and relaxful day together for Thanksgiving. We still had the Turkey, noodles, scalloped corn, sweet potatoes, dressing, cranberries, etc etc, which all was excellent...later we watched the movie Hancock...

This just in...PP just called me... after 4 hours of early morning shopping to report on what she purchased and the crowds...YEAH! Gotta GO!! 26 days left

Wishing everyone a Safe and Blessed Thanksgiving!

I am Thankful for my Children and Grandchildren and my Husband, who all love me unconditionally!

I am Thankful for my health...even though I complain (to myself and to God) ...I look and see someone worse than I am and I'm truly thankful that I have to take only a cholestral pill and that happy pill every day.

I am Thankful for where God has me in my life at this moment!

( I hope he gives me years more of Moments)

I am Thankful that God has made me the person I am.

(But God...could you take a few pounds off of me!)

I Love my Babies and my life...Thanks be to God!

TURKEY DAY TODAY

Today is our "THANKSGIVING" with my mother and family.
Coooked and baked most of yesterday. PP's 'significant other' is going to cook the 2- 22 lb turkeys. I am so grateful for this...I usually cook the turkeys. The Plus side is HE is a GREAT COOK!! His Lasagna is the BEST of the BEST!
Stopped by there yesterday, (to give the Diva her new phone), and one of his desserts did not turn out....HE THREW THE WHOLE DESSERT IN THE TRASH! ..... it LOOKED EDIBLE TO ME!

Still trying to get out of my DEPRESSION of losing Josie! Last night not even the painting helped, so gave it up!
Anyway...looking forward to visiting with family today!

Busy....painting....

Well...I've done the unthinkable, I have painted 3/4 of my living room a "CREAMY WHITE"!
Anyone who knows me. knows I only go for color....usually 'BOLD' color! Must be my metabolism! AND....I LIKE IT! Okay...the other 1/4 Is a deep, rich BURGANDY!
NOW...going to work on the kitchen!!

Happy Birthday Chase!

HAPPY "15th" BIRTHDAY CHASE!
Celebrated Chase's Birthday with family and friends at a Japanese resturant. Our cook was hilarious! He kept a conversation going, with Rennie, and together they had us in stitches!
Great food!!

God grant us the Serenity

to accept the things we cannot change,

the Courage to change the things we can,

and the Wisdom to know the difference.
