I’m happy and grateful just to be able to share thankfuls!!  I’ve not always been in this place/space…so it merits a LOUD HALLELUJAH just to “selah” (pause/consider/reflect/marvel) that!

Here’s more:  I’m very thankful I didn’t have a nervous breakdown this week due to magnifying a mere misunderstanding (as my cousin would say if she were still in Texas, rather than Heaven:  “you are SO Dramatic!!”).  Yeah well, when God created me I guess he left out the Divine equivalent to Valium.  

Seriously, though–in a conflict of whatever size, my best defense is JESUS and the Holy Spirit’s gang unit.  A win-win, and no blood spilled!

I’m once again, and always grateful for the few excellent friends I have…as Kermit the frog sang, “it’s not easy being green”–and it’s not easy for reasonably normal folks to inhabit the world of a green person (cousin of Kermit).

I’m thankful we still have NO snow–some days rain, but mostly gorgeous sunshine with the promise of more, since Daylight Savings Time is just around the corner.

Glad and grateful to have a truly caring caregiver–it’s still a miracle to me that she comes back each week…and girl, she folds all my clothes up in neat little squares after doing laundry!  The first time, I laughed–but she insisted they’d fit in the bureau drawers better.  I feel like a queen–because I was used to quite happily just balling up and smooshing everything into drawers.

I’m thankful for all the Customer Service folks I speak with on the phone when I have a question, or want to make payments…they’re so friendly, ‘specially the guys (who’ve evidently been brought up to be kind to old women), very nice and helpful.  I guess that counts for “socializing”, right?

I’m thankful the Scallops Alfredo turned out well last night–it’s even better tonight!

And my nabe and I exchanged dinners again, mid-week:  I made turkey vegetable soup, she cooked Mexican.  But it’s about to get rough–she has to stop pretending she needn’t follow Dr’s orders to absolutely QUIT sugar…so there go all the yummy desserts…

I’m grateful for a change in perspective about blogging this year–I’m no longer a prisoner on the chain gang of Stats…sweet Freedom indeed!!

And I’m thankful to be fully immersed in this rich Lenten season…so good to feel the depth of the Lord’s love, that He would submit to the agony of His last days on Earth so that I could be with Him forever–washed clean, made new, a Somebody beloved of God.  Jesus be the Name I praise!

PS:  I think I went over 10–is there a fine for that?😉
