Thankful!

There is so much to be thankful for in this life and I must be careful, or I will forget it.



I am thankful for a warm place to sleep in the winter and a cool place to sleep in the summer.


And I am THANKFUL…..


1. that I am happy living in a small space. We own a nice home, but we chose lease it out. To be honest there is enough for us to keep clean in this 342 sqft on wheels.


2. for a wife who feels the same way.


3. we both have good health.


4. for the health of our children and grand children.


5. Ahhh, friends. Friends make the world go around smoothly. I never had a pen pal as a kid, but now with the advent of the internet, we have many ‘pen pals’,( 21st century style). And we don’t even have to use a stamp. OH YES, and thankful and happy to have met many of the ‘pen pals’ now in person, adding greatly to the thrills of living the good life.


6. I have some friendships that started in the 1950’s and last until today.


7. for a wonderful extended family. I am fortunate to still have my sister Shirl, we are the only siblings remaining. Every once in awhile we will say, “We are all that is left!”


8. That Life is good. Like everyone in this world there are some bad things that happen in our lives, but the good out weighs the bad.


9. That we have enough money to pay our bills and furnish us with food and even extra to eat out. I am thankful we can afford the diesel fuel to push our home across this beautiful country. I am extremely thankful we are fit to enjoy it.


And then there is Death, I am fortunate that of all the deaths I have known, none suffered a terrible agonizing death.


Then the date of June first,(Just past) that was the birthday of Josh & Steve. The only twins in our family, YEAH, I guess we are thankful for them. LOL


There are probably a million other things I am thankful for, but this is a few.


Thanks for reading this stuff.

PS:


You can count sheep, or you can count blessings. If you are an insomniac you will run out of sheep and have to go to goats. BUT…… There was a song that said, “You will fall asleep counting your blessings.”
