Thankful Thursday #2

Welcome to Thankful Thursday! If you'd like to participate, just click here for the details.

Here's my list of five things for this week:

1) I am thankful for my mom. She made dinner for my husband and myself on Tuesday evening and brought it over. I was not feeling well that evening so it was such a blessing.

2) I am so thankful that God has been watching over Murphy and keeping him safe. He has escaped our yard twice in the past week and we live rather close to a highway. Both times, Murphy has been found safe and sound.

3) I am thankful for having wonderful and caring neighbors. Rick and Tammy have been lifesavers the past few weeks. They saved our dinner one evening by loaning us some eggs and they saved Murphy on Friday when he was roaming around the subdivision. I am also thankful that Murphy did NOT destroy their yard or garden or anything in their garage. I have not been so lucky at our home though. Murph ate a good towel last night. Maybe next week I can post that I am thankful that he hasn't chewed up anything in a week? One can only hope!

4) I am very thankful for being given the gift of time with my great aunt. Sometimes in life, loved ones are taken suddenly and that can leave people with regrets. We have been blessed with having the knowledge that my Aunt Ott's time on earth is coming to an end. That gives us great opportunity to visit and see her before she passes.

5) I am also very thankful for my Great Aunt Jo. She will be 90 years old in October and is the older sister to my Great Aunt Ott. We are going to get to spend the morning together tomorrow - going to her VERY early morning prayer group, breakfast/visiting, and to visit Aunt Ott. Aunt Jo is incredibly inspiring to me and such a neat lady. I am really looking forward to having some one-on-one time with her.
