It's so pretty this time of year.......the lights and Christmas trees!

Yard decorations.......malls are so pretty this time of year!

Santa's on every corner.......(7 yr old says....thought there was only 1 santa.....gosh, that was hard to explain, but funny too!)

I am THANKFUL for my family, friends (especially you all), my dog sasse......and even my health, when I think about Jeanette and Ann's friend.....among others.

.......well, it makes me feel very fortunate........I am sorry that there are so many people in our world today that are suffering.....and my prayers are with anyone who is!!

I wish there wasn't so much pain in the world.....it trluy makes me sad........I think of all of you everyday, and how I am so fortunate to have found such a WONDERFUL GROUP OF PEOPLE!!

Bert,

You are so sweet, thank your for enlightening my day. You always

seem to be so upbeat and that cheers me right up.

I think I have finally reached the end of getting all the gifts

done. I have been making most of them as money is so short this

year. I finished a fleece jacket/ with matching hat today,for my

granddaughter, who will be 13 on Christmas Day.

Randy and Cheryl,

Congratulations on such an important anniversary. I will be going

to town tomorrow and will get my copy of Family Circle so I can read

the article.

To all:

I also would like to thank all of you in this group who have helped

me through some very tough times. Although I don't share alot of

what is going on with me and my life, somehow you always know the

right things to say. GOD BLESS YOU ALL.
