I haven't got a lot of riches

And sometimes the going's tough.

But I've got loving ones around me,

And that makes me rich enough.

I think God for His blessings,

And the mercies He's bestowed.

I'm drinking from my saucer,

'Cause my cup has overflowed.

Happy Thanksgiving! Did you all enjoy turkey etc. and family today? We sure did. We left here at 9:30 and got to the house around 12. We picked up Mom and took some flowers to the cemetery for Dad. Such beautiful colors on all the graves. We drove back by way of the airport to see all the progress being made there. So much has changed since I moved away. Then back to the house to get started on the food. Thanksgiving this year was at blue eyes' house. I got to see the new paint jobs. Very nice indeed! It was so nice to see the little guys running around the house having fun. Lots to be thankful for: plenty of delicious food, healthy family, children having fun together, friendly conversation....We read all the Thanksgiving notes from 2002 - 2005. This year we wrote on material which will be used to make table cloth. Conversation for our next Thanksgiving meal together. Even the cleaning up was fun. Really, it was! I think it is so cool to put all the tables and things away and move the furniture back. Looked like nothing had happened. Now I'm home, tired and full and ready to go to bed. No early shopping for me tomorrow. How about you? I'll be satisfied to read about the crowds online or watch on TV. At home in my PJs. Happy Thanksgiving everyone! May it take you a long time to count your blessings.
