10 Things of Thankful

Ah yes, I’m a grateful gal!!

The “gigantor totes project” is nearly finished, and still thrilling me.  Thankful they are good quality plastic and quite reasonably priced…I probably only need 2 more, yippee!

Very thankful for my “Russian doll”, caregiver extraordinaire.  Even after falling and wounding both wrists she was still eager to help me–I felt a bit guilty, needing her to use the difficult can opener on 6 small cans of tuna last Monday, but she insisted so I sent her home with another home-baked cake.  Her big smile makes my heart happy!

And yesterday I learned she’s just as good with communication skills, as with shopping and household stuff.  That was a huge relief…I can tell her things, not keep them bottled up for fear she’ll quit.

Very grateful to have a good speaker at church today–the message was “What Do You See?”, and Pastor talked about how we view folks, impacts how we’ll treat them.  Do we see them through the lens of bias or bitterness?  We’re all made in God’s image, and we need to see everyone as HE sees them, with LOVE.

I ordered some yummy mini dumplings from Amazon–oh my, they’re like small potstickers filled with seasoned chicken and cabbage…delightful!

The temps were cold…then last night warmed up and we have serious rain–all of which I’m thankful for indeed (no snow).

I managed to finish the 1000-piece puzzle (with much frustration–but hey, squinting through cataracts, that’s a grateful victory)!

Both of my neighbor’s cats are in heat…after a 2-day absence, they were quite happy to see me (not sure what that means, but I’ll take it as a positive–they weren’t snarling at me).

Thankful for blogging:  the socializing (within my comfort limits), and knowing I can still “write something”.

Always and ever grateful that I’m a beloved child of God, and He is for me!
