Thankful for thrift stores where I can find REAL flannel shirts and hoodies cheap for work. Walmart and other stores don't believe in selling clothes with decent thickness to them anymore. Rolling my eyes.

I keep looking for a terrycloth bathrobe, but they seem to only make them out of velour or microfiber nowadays. I'm all ears! Blinking

Had dinner with some work chums.. we all got old! What the heck! ... we were hired together and all were less than 120 pounds and our feet were a half size smaller and we DID NOT have wrinkles that no cream was gonna get out,

We all ate exactly the same as we did those 3+ decades ago... and therein is the problem! 😂🤣

I'm thankful, of all my friends who have fallen seriously, since Sept, I am grateful I am not one of them.......... but they're getting better, so THAT's why I'm thankful Lovey dubby
One broke her ankle (2 pins & bolts), one pulled her shoulder - bursitis, one fractured her kneecap, another fell due to other complications & is just now being contemplated to get out of the hospital (she went in, on her birthday in Oct & got out for 2 weeks around Christmas). That's 4 friends all seriously hurt, and just now on the mend. I'm SO thankful that they are on the mend.

Rosie,
Cracking up over ''just the cone!''

Susan,
That's a lot of worries. I'm glad all are on the mend.

I'm thankful to have my curtains and shades open for the first time in days and that the sun is shining.

I'm thankful to be home safe and sound. Tired but almost all unpacked wand called Tony to tell him he doesn't have to work tomorrow. Dogs are happy and we've got a hot chicken dinner.

I am thankful the little squirrel that slid off the roof yesterday did not hurt himself. This shows where he started and where he stopped but he scurried away before I could snap his picture. He was surprised for sure!

We have a yard shed with a roof like that in a taller version about sixteen feet tall. One winter when we had a lot of snow we enjoyed watching the squirrels sliding down the roof and landing in a good sized snowbank. They would then scamper back up the roof and do it again, it was quite entertaining to watch the squirrels enjoy themselves.
If you want to be happy for a lifetime plant a garden!
Faith is the postage stamp on our prayers!

Jacquie,
I've seen them fall out of trees and be stunned, but pick themselves up and head for the trunk so they won't be prey. They can take quite a fall.

Betty,
That's awesome!

I'm thankful my sinus isn't worse than it is.
