Being Thankful:

 Gathered at Donna's Air B&B this year for Thanksgiving and been feeling thankful this season and blessed to have had Joey by my side all these  62years....he has had to love me alot to go through all my problems with me.

 Marlo Thomas said it well.... What makes a marriage last!

 The main thing she said was the three L's." You have to listen and then you'll know what the other person is really thinking and going through. You have to be able to laugh together and then of course most important is to love each other, she said lust to be exact.  😊And without love, you don't have anything."  thought this is so very true....and I would have to add that sometimes you have to just let some things go.

My Fall

 My first fall......

This happened awhile back trying to feed my cats out in the garage and tripping over my own feet if that makes sense. I hit the concrete which made things worse.

Anyway had pain for quite awhile and finally had to go see a doctor.   He gave me a shot in my leg so now I just have to wait and see if it works.  Glad to say my Vertigo  hasn't been much of a problem lately but being able to sleep at night has been a nightmare and an on going problem.

UGH!!

Sarah my sister....

                     My sister Sarah came to Forida with family cause they wanted to see the beaches and Sarah just wanted to visit us siblings and I was so happy to have her stay with me.  She taught me how to make a good cherry pie and passes along her good recipes to me. Cooking is what Sarah enjoys. She also passes along some puzzles for me to work. I really like that!  She came with her granddaughter , her husband and their daughter.   We visited Bump while she was here and hit a few thrift stores.  She is so sweet and I love her so very much for many reasons but one of the biggest reasons is that she introduced me to Joey.   She had me over to her house when I was just a young nineteen year old for a cookout cause she wanted me to meet this really nice kid.  That nice kid became my future husband. 😊 Thank you Sarah!!  Joey   was for sure the right one for me!! πŸ’• Forever grateful!!
