What am I thankful for day 8
Closing in on getting current. Today was a busy day helping my parents around their house. I started scanning negatives and transferring records to CD’s. Today was an easy one but kind of a repeat.

What am I thankful for day 7
I am still behind on my posts. This was a long day in the car. I am thankful today for good weather and a good travelling companion, Susan. We made good time from Dallas to Minneapolis. 13 hours and 59 minutes. We ate three meals in the car and only stopped 3 times for […]

What am I thankful for day 2
Heading into election day I am thankful for the country we live in. That seems cliche these when you think of how divisive things have been lately and how we seem to have lost our swagger and respect from other parts of the world. Even with that, most people around the world still envy our […]
November Theme – What am I thankful for? Day 1
In response to how weird this year has been and the things we are missing from our old normal, I am going to take the month of November. It would be easy for each of us to look at this year and be mad, frustrated or confused. I am going to use this month to […]

This may sound like a weird thing to be thankful for but in these strange times I will take what I can get. This week I am thankful for the show New Girl. Yes the goofy show that can be found on Neflix. It’s goofy. Its about a bunch of people a lot younger than […]
