Today's Thankful....and Question  

Posted by: Joanie in , ,

I am thankful for my daughter, Tina. She is beautiful inside and out. She is fun and independent. She forked out on her own before I was ready. She has grown into a wonderful young woman. She is loving and kind. She is adventuresome, which is a characteristic I envy.

I love you, Tina!

Question of the day: Which is more irritating to you...someone who NEVER uses the blinker on their car, or someone who NEVER turns it off? Quite a conundrum, huh?

Also ... Happy Veterans Day, with reverance and respect to all our veterans and our armed forces serving now...and THANK YOU!

I want to share today about my son. I am thankful for my son. He is so generous in spirit. He has so many talents, is a hard worker, a good dad and is such a loving person. He has been through some tough times, but I know he will continue to shine. He needs to allow himself to do that. In thinking of him, it fills my heart..I miss him and I love him!


It looks to be another great day as for weather! I had an early morning meeting and so started my day off a bit earlier than normal. I had hoped to get up earlier and exercise, but, whoops, slept clear till the alarm. I have to get back into the habit of morning exercise. It is getting dark so early, it is hard to walk at nights. At least I still have my little exercise class three days a week.

I have not had any great blogging revelations lately. Biggest Loser on tonight. I am fearing who will get sent home this week!

Todays Thankful....and Mourning Monday

Today I am thankful for my oldest daughter Chrissy. She is so loving and caring, sensitive and just a beautiful person, inside and out. She is a wonderful daughter, sister, and mom. And although I did not give birth to her, she is like me in many ways! I love you, Chrissy! I thank God for bringing you to us, and making you our daughter!!!

There is so much in life to be thankful for. I am, however, having trouble being thankful for Monday mornings! I will work on this one. I know Monday is a good day. I just know it!

Sunday, however, I did appreciate!

Have a wonderful week, one and all!

Today I am thankful for the wonderful fall weather.

It was a beautiful day yesterday, and I enjoyed it so! It may seem like a small thing, but really, a beautiful sunny day cannot be wasted! I took the dogs out for a walk after I did go out and clean up the yard, leaves and all that stuff. It was just so nice out that the work didn't even seem bad at all!

I walked to church this morning and fixed brunch for my hubby and two hunting buddies. Now, after posting, must finish the laundry before the dogs and I go outside for another walk. Supper, which will be baked potato soup is all done, and will only need the finishing touch. It is cooler today, but aw, it is so nice for November!! Enjoy your day!!

Todays Thankful...and Super Saturday!

This thankful stuff doesn't take much thinking so far, as I find I have so much to be thankful for!! Today without question, I am thankful for my mother in law. Last night, she was taken to the ER and had to be admitted to the hospital. It sounds now as if it were a "small" heart attack, but they are not sure yet. How scary! We'll hear more later today. My mother in law is wonderful, and loves me and treats me like one of her own. I am lucky. I hope we hear good news later from the doctors. I love her dearly!!

It looks to be a beautiful day. I have my cleaning done, and no real big plans. I could go out and clean up some leaves...but we'll see! I do think it would be a good day for a walk to the dog park! I'll have to discuss this with Sammy.

Have a wonderful day! Remember to tell your loved ones how much they mean to you!
