It doesn't get much better than this.
Things I am thankful for: ( Idea taken from Jo's Country Junction)
1) My faith: although I am in serious need of some meditation and focus.
2) My health, aside from my 3 daily pills, I am able to do most anything I want. I love my swimming in the mornings this fall. And I struggle with my thyroid and lately my weight. It is down 5 pounds, which is better.
3) My husband: he lets me be me and is truly my better half. And he does some of those chores I dislike. He has even become better at cleaning up for company and doing dishes. What a sweetie ! I often find us thinking on the same thing at the same time. 37 years and counting.
4) My kids: as they have become adults, I enjoy watching them and supporting them.
5) My daughter in law and daughter's boyfriend: both have added so much to my kid's lives to make them well rounded.
6) My grandboys: such little blessings that bring out the teacher extraordinaire along with lots of love. These two munchkins have added so much to my life, I feel lucky to live close by and be a part of their lives.
7) Teaching: I love being with the kids at school and coaching them with their studies as well as life's challenges. Whether college choices or peer issues, it does a body good to listen and learn.
8) My mother and mother in law. both are fairly well considering their ages: 85 and 100. The next few years will be a challenge as my mom is developing Dementia and she is so far away.
9) The seasons of Wisconsin. I may not like the cold, but I do enjoy my backyard and all the trees and animals have to offer. Nature is truly a wondrous thing.
10) My mind: I am lucky to enjoy the challenges that reading and math and the world brings. I am less emotional than my younger years, and able to think things through
Lastly: QUILTING . I have such fun as I have grown in my skills over the years. ( And so has my stash. And now I have blogging to make it more social. It is something that feeds my soul and my mind and my hands.
