What are we thankful for?

This year in addition to my usual listing of faith, family, food,
lodging, security and quilting I am thankful for my washer and dryer.
For three weeks last month I was without this luxury that I had been
taking for granted. Yes, one can go to the laundromat but not every
time it would be nice to throw in a load of clothes or pre-wash
fabric. I just did one of those "in-between laundry days" extra loads
and thanked the Lord for allowing me this type of luxury.

Well, Susan. What am I thankful for in addition to 'faith, family, food,
lodging, security and quilting'? Just now I'd have to say snoring.
I've gone as far as I can go with today. Before I load the coffee pot
for tomorrow, I walked through our home and hear gentle snoring. There's a
gentle snorfle snorting by a contented Yorkie at my feet. The others have
gone to bed hours ago and I hear them softly purring too.
I am thankful for all who will be staying awake to protect us so I can
join the chorus. Polly

Besides echoing the aforementioned, I'd have to add" "You CAN sew again.
Stop if it hurts, and no more than 20 min with 30 min rests in-between".

And more than that, that Neither of us were hurt more than we were when we
got hit last month.

And that I can be a part of this quilting Guild, RCTQ. Ya'all You'all &
You'n's, and My Gators are the BEST. (thinks that includes everyone)

Happy Thanksgiving!

I'm grateful for the hour or so of peace and quiet I can claim nearly
every morning, time to sip my coffee, watch the light change in the
garden, maybe do a little stitching.

I am grateful to awaken each day, no matter whether it is a work day
or not.

Besides the obvious food, family, etc. I'm thankful for my stash-enabling
friends, because I can keep quilting now even if it's not a wise idea to by
fabric. Plus the occassional quiet hours I get to quilt or read in my studio

One of the wonderful benefits that came with getting married was
acquiring
a washer and a dryer--the appliances, I mean (though he is quite
capable
of actually doing those things). A couple of years after the
marriage we
moved and I had to go back to using a laundromat for two weeks. It
was
terrible. (And that was for only two people. For a family? No
wonder
people at laundromats use a dozen washers at a time.)

But, back to things for which to be thankful: all the things that
Susan
says. And also literacy and intellectual curiosity.

I'm thankful for the almost every Friday quilting time at my house
with all my quilting buddies. If it weren't for that weekly
gathering, my house would never get cleaned!!

oh, and I'm also thankful that God keeps His promises based not on my
goodness, but on HIS!
