Thankful Thursday on a Wednesday Night


This is my last Thankful Thursday…until after my hip surgery. So, that right there is something to be thankful about! What else?

·         I’m thankful that I actually woke up on time this morning – I have no memory of hearing or turning off my alarm clock.

·         I love that I make myself laugh on a daily basis. Like today when I almost had a worker’s comp claim when I injured myself putting new staples in the stapler. Really! That thing is a menace!

·         I also laughed as I was trying to take pictures of the Queen Anne’s Lace that is so abundant on the roadsides right now.


·         Oh look – I was somewhat successful. Kinda hard when you’re driving…



·         Here’s another thing I was laughing about. I was grousing that there was so much traffic on my way home – why there are about 10 cars in front of me! Usually there are only about two or three. I guess I’m a little bit spoiled.

·         I’m so so thankful that at least for now there’s nothing wrong with my kidneys.

·         I’m just beyond thankful for the squirrel in our back yard that is causing Dr. M to guffaw in the kitchen. The squirrel is burying sunflower seeds all over our yard & then running back under the bird feeder to get more – scattering all the sparrows as he goes. Dr. M is calling it Bowling for Sparrows. Too funny!

OK, that’s enough for now. What are you thankful for?

    I'm thankful that my car only need a new battery and not major work on the electrical system (it was acting possessed)

  5. Wow. Is it August already? Your surgery is soon. I don't think we should let you cheat us out of a Thankful Thursday though. Just do one ahead of time so we can ponder your thoughts.

    I want video on the squirrel, sparrows and Dr. M guffaws.

    I am thankful your kidneys are OK, too. I thought of you and those precious organs the other day as I washed down a couple of advil. We take a lot for granted, don't we?

    Squirrels are great gardeners aren't they?

  9. I am thankful for the Queen Ann's Lace, too. I love seeing it along the road. I told my husband he should pick some of them for me. I only want a few to put in an old mason jar. Wouldn't that be pretty? When I was a kid, we would put them in black ink and they would change color in a day or two.

I woke up not feeling well and skipped church (for the second week in a row - oops), but that doesn’t keep me from being deep in the throes ...
