Thankful Thursday

Our storm yesterday wasn’t too bad. So grateful there weren’t super high winds. Some of the pictures from the valley looked like the winds were crazy high. Right now, it’s not even raining.

I’m grateful B’s ultrasound came back good but what is going on is still a mystery. Hopefully, he’ll get some answer from the doctor today.

I’m very thankful to have a few very nice slow days at home. I’ve been pottering about. I moved some dishes from one shelf to another and gathered the cat cups and bowls together. ( these are people dishes, not for the cats!).

I’m thankful for those people getting out and protesting at Tesla lots and protesting at elected officials’ offices. In the early 70’s we protested, as did hundreds of thousands, the Vietnam War. I think it did change the course of the war. I was saddened that Mayor Bowser of DC though felt pressure to remove the Black Lives Matter Art on the street. We will not forget what happened to George Flyod and countless other black men.

Here’s my latest East Fork bowl too. They are so beautiful. If you’re in the market for any dishware checkout East Fork.

All in all just thankful for another day.

Looks like the rain just started up again

Thankful Thursday

After reading about the severe cold in the south and midwest, our weather is something to be thankful for. I love living in California and am so grateful that we have a conscientious governor despite what the orange king has to say!

I’m grateful my LLS grant money came for my insurance. It makes a huge difference. Without it, I’m quite sure we would be struggling money-wise.

I’m immensely grateful that B is feeling so good for now. He’s doing all kinds of chores and is outside a lot of the day. Soon enough, with the Stanford surgery, it’ll be different but for now, it’s great. He still doesn’t have a date for the laparoscopy but hopefully soon.

I’m grateful for the other usual things, the Mike Shelito pool, the gym, and how well Roseville Parks takes care of things. It is much appreciated. If there was one other place I’d move to, besides Tahoe or Capitola, it would be Roseville. The former two would be beyond anything we could afford although if we had bought in the 70’s or 80’s it would be worth a fortune now. So much for hindsight.

I’m thankful for family and the support we all give each other. I do miss my sister, Heidi, even if we weren’t that close, she was still there and very supportive.

Well, that’s it from mi casa. Today is mostly a home day. I want to catch up on some house things and then pop into town to go to the bank.
