The past several days have been spent organizing my various projects to work on after the holiday. There are photos to organize into albums, quilts to contiue sewing, crocheted afghans to finish. And because I have a request for family stories, those get written when my memory recalls them.
And then there are the Susie Homemaker chores to attend to, since they tend go unnoticed while working on other stuff.
I sort of feel like time is running out, and even though I am as old as dirt, it isn't an age thing that concerns me. It is those who want war. Those who will benefit financially from war. Those who will send our children and grandchildren to fight a war that the rest of us do not want, while they sit in their mansions with their families who are not only safe but getting more wealthy by the day.
I hope I am wrong. I hope that the many who see a war on the near horizon are wrong. And I pray daily that common sense will surface and this insanity will disappear.
It is not all gloom and doom. There is a holiday this week that traditionally brings families together. May each of you find peace on Thanksgiving Day. And may God truly bless and keep each of you.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours Vicki , praying for peace on earth these next couple months Blessings , Patrick

ReplyDeleteHi Vicki
ReplyDeleteHappy Thanksgiving to you and your family. May your day be filled with love, laughter and precious memories. God bless you….Jan
I'm wishing the very same for you, my friend! Enjoy every minute. May God truly bless you and yours.
ReplyDeleteI hear what you are saying about time running out and the to-do list doesn't seem to get any shorter. I hope you and your family have safe travels and great family time this coming Thanksgiving weekend!
ReplyDeleteNorthern Sarge...I have already decided that in order to finish everything I want to do, I will have to live to at least 143 years of age. :)
DeleteIt isn't the to do list that bothers me so much. It is the politicians - ours and those in other countries - who seem to be pushing us toward another war we don't want. Or that are trying to tell us how we must live our lives.
A pox on the lot of them.
God bless, Sarge, and may your Thanksgiving be full of love and laughter and lots of really good turkey dressing!
A pox indeed! Praying sanity will resurface!
ReplyDeleteHave a wonderful Thanksgiving, Vicki!
sbrgirl...Sanity...Oh how I miss it! A little bit of common sense would be nice, too!
ReplyDeleteHope your Thanksgiving is full of peace and joy and love.
