My gratitudes are a little blurry (but not lacking significance)…life has been rather busy in the Upper Room–nonetheless, I have a list!
#1, Holy Week was very emotional, culminating in the joyous day of Christ’s Resurrection–I’m nearly speechless, still weepy with gratitude for ALL HE MEANS TO ME.
#2, Both my churches/pastors did a marvelous job with their messages; at Elevation Church in Charlotte, NC, the party atmosphere was perfect!
#3, Easter dinner was very nice–my neighbor cooked a banquet table full of traditional dishes, and I contributed my special brownies and ho-hum coconut bars.
#4, Many thanks to host Denise, and all the others who make 6SS a wonderful part of the week.
#5, And much gratitude to Hagar for graciously filling in for me.
#6, The tulips I received from my caregiver lasted ALL week long, amazing!
#7, I managed to take 2 Huge items off my to-do list, with the Lord’s help: moved furniture, a better arrangement; and scrubbed the kitchen floor on hands and knees. This was not fun, but served an important purpose beyond cleanliness: my caregiver will now be taking over this task–I bought her a Swiffer today😊
#8, The 2 newest residents are settling in nicely–friendly, quiet and respectful…Mr Rogers would be proud!
#9, The A-Z Challenge is going pretty well so far–I’m enjoying it, and so thankful another blogger reminded me about it, lest I miss out.
#10, My feline nieces downstairs are “feeling the heat”, so there’s been a whole lotta yowling goin’ on–it’s not a bother for me, but my nabe isn’t getting much sleep…I’m glad and grateful I didn’t give in to temptation and adopt one of my own.😺
And a special thank you to all my readers–your comments bless me!😊

It is great that you and your neighbors get together for Easter dinner.

It’s not exactly getting together, my nabe let’s everyone know she’s cooking and they can come get a plate. Our apartments are quite small. But it’s kind of her to do things for those who don’t have families nearby.

It does sound like you have good neighbors. Can the cats be “fixed” so there’s no more yowling? There are usually low-cost spay options if you look for them.

The wait-list for free vet services is LONG since there are so many feral cats to deal with first. She cannot affort paid vet service.

A marvellous list that shouts out thankfulness, Cale. Cleaning on hands and knees sounds beyond the ability of my knee; I have an old fashioned string mop and a bucket for my floors.

Yes, that was the last time I’ll clean on hands and knees–I don’t even pray on my knees, I bow my head in my recliner!😉😊
