Happy Thanksgiving!
And if you're not American, Happy Thanksgiving anyway! Taking a break from the wip and other things to relax and rest--a cold caught up with me at last. I'm on page 968 of Ken Follett's 'World Without End' and while it's gripped me in places, I'm mostly disappointed. Anyone else read it?Anyway I shall go finish it and take time to count my blessings, of which there are many.
!. A wonderful family whom I love and who loves me
2. A job I love (mostly--honest!)
3. Good health for pretty much all my life
4. A house that is warm and safe
5. Food in our fridge and on our table
6. Friends
7. Books--lots!
8. Laughter--whether it's me, my husband, my children--I love to laugh. I love to hear laughter.
9. Autumn in New England--I'll never tire of the fall colours.
10. A great church and a God who loves me.
And lots more... but even if one of these were missing, the house or the health or even the books (gasp!) I hope I'd still count my blessings. I hope I'd still realise how many I had.
