Thinking Of Thanksgiving....

....and the whole notion of giving thanks instead of taking things.  This year has been fraught with so many things to yell about and pull my hair out over and rue and wonder at why the world is such a crazy mixed-up place right now.  Sometimes it's great to have a reason to step outside of all of that and look at what there is to be thankful for instead of what there is to be afraid of and curse about.  So I'm officially taking this week (starting today) to focus on how incredibly thankful I feel for all of the wonderful things in life and officially turning my head away (this week) from the things that make my stomach churn.  The list of thankful is long and meandering and I share just a few thoughts in this next rambling bit....good health....amazing family and friends...Rusty....Mother Nature....a roof over my head....food in my pantry....wonderful agents who continue to believe in me even though I've given them no reason to....do-gooders and folks who spread love and peace and kindness in this world when all odds are against them....I'm so grateful and thankful and humbled by all the good there is in the world...Love, reign o'er me...o'er all of us.

Isn't this adorable?  I wanted to share this picture with you of some cute decorations that my wonderful friend shared with me :-)
