Happy Thanksgiving . . .

I'm sure everyone is busy getting ready
for Thursday, so I wanted to
go ahead and wish you all a
wonderful Thanksgiving.



For each new morning with its light,
For rest and shelter of the night,
For health and food,
For love and friends,
For everything Thy goodness send.
~Ralph Waldo Emerson~

Do You Q ? ? ?

I made my first purchase for Christmas gift giving this morning.



I LOVE shopping online with QVC!
It is truly a great way to shop with
Quality~Value~Convenience.
It's much easier than traditional shopping at stores.
I am not a 'Black Friday' shopper!
Have you ever shopped with QVC?

From My Front Door . . .

We're enjoying this beautiful sight this morning.


This tree is a survivor.
Ice storms, heavy snows, hail storms, and tornado winds
have not fazed this beauty.


Enjoy your day!

Thankful For Veterans . . .

America has been blessed for generations by Veterans.

Without them we wouldn't be the nation we are today.



Freedom isn't free!

Thank you Veterans for fighting for our freedoms.

Also, thanks to all those serving our country today.

I'm so thankful to the Lord that I'm alive
to enjoy the beauty of the Fall foliage.



Delicious autumn!
My very soul is wedded to it
and if I were a bird
I would fly about the earth
seeking the successive autumns


George Eliot

Four Weeks Ago . . .

On Wednesday, October 6th, I was rushed to the hospital in septic shock.



I had surgery for an infection, found out I was a diabetic, and had a light
heart attack. The good news is I am almost healed from the surgery and I'm managing the diabetes. Also after having a heart cath. I found out my heart is very healthy, no blockages. In fact the doctor told the nurse I have the heart of a twenty year old.
He thinks the heart attack was caused by the stress of the infection. No damage.
I'm grateful to God that He watched over me and spared my life.
My wonderful family has been so loving and caring.
Without them I wouldn't be this far along in my recovery.
I'll be back soon doing more posts.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit.
