This week I am thankful for many things as always. I enjoy being able to list these blessings every week because just to see them written down in front of me helps me to realize just how thankful and blessed that I truly am:
- My dad turned 89 years old this week and is a very healthy person. What more can a daughter ask for!!
- I am thankful for my husband and his determination to keep working even though most days he hurts everywhere.
- I was offered and given a part-time job this week that will fit perfectly into my schedule. This will allow me to still help with church related things and with my grandchildren but allow me a little tinee bit of income. CURVES here I come!!
- I am off to the Women of Faith today in Atlanta hoping that I can keep a group of 17 ladies together. Since I am the bus leader also praying that we find where we are going!! smile. I am thankful that I am able to go health wise and financially too.
- I am thankful for the opportunity of meeting such a great man named Elwyn Caldwell. We lost him this past Friday but he is in heaven now.
- I am thankful for my neighbor, Tootsie, she has helped me in so many, many ways over these years that I have lived here in Savannah. She will never know just how much!!
- I am thankful for those who call me "their friend". I always feel so very special when someone tells me that. I love each one of you.
