Blessings on the Farm

This past Thanksgiving was so different than any than I have ever experienced.  My Mom decided that the family has gotten too big and we didn't have a large enough house for all of the family to get together.  So this year we didn't.  Robert and I spent the day at home.  It really wasn't like any other day to me.  I fixed lunch and supper (we did have a turkey), cleaned the kitchen and worked on aprons.  So instead of feeling sorry for myself, I decided to count my blessings:

-I have a wonderful husband who wanted to spend the day with me. 

-We had the money to be able to have a turkey dinner at home.

-The critters were all fed special for the holidays.

-I have both parents still alive.  They spent the day with my sister and her family.

-I wasn't traveling when it started sleeting.  I just put another log on the fire and snuggled in to watch TV

-I did get to see Wyatt since he was hunting in the morning with his Dad.  I talked with Sam on the phone.

So see,  I am blessed even when I don't realize it.  Happy Blessings to all

See ya on the farm
