Thanksgiving

Yesterday was Thanksgiving Day, and I enjoyed it immensely!  I had three friends come over for dinner and we enjoyed our meal until our bellies were so full.  We talked and laughed about different topics, mind you, these people did not know each other, but they clicked.  I had invited my friend and neighbor Janet, she is a very loving and kind woman, and she has been a blessing in our lives.  I also invited a friend and co worker, Edgar.  He has family in Denver, but he wanted to stay in the Springs, but had no plans for dinner.  I had invited him several weeks ago and he made the green bean casserole, which was awesome!!  I also invited my friend, Jeff.  Now, Jeff and I go back about seven years.  He has modeled for me on several occasions while I was doing some art projects for an art show.  Unfortunately, my son, Nathaniel was not able to have dinner with us.  His work schedule did not allow his spending the holiday with me and my friends.  Though he did have something to eat after work, of course, the stuffing is his favorite.  And, if I may add, I make my stuffing from scratch. So, my Thanksgiving was wonderful!  Thank God for to go containers.

There has been so much going on.  I will be having my knee replaced in the near future.  It is in God's hands, not mine, so there is no sense in worrying.  He has it all in control.  I finally had the work in my van done, though, it still needs a little more work, but that can be taken care of in the near future.  The mechanic that I used was great and helped me prioritize what needed to get done.  So, day trips, here we come!!  It has been almost two years that we could not go far with my car because of issues, and I am not able to buy a new car.  I cannot afford the payments. So, I will drive this van for awhile until I can get my financial situation more settled.

I am signing off for now.  I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving Day, because I did.  God is good!!

 

Nathaniel set up the table for me yesterday, before my guests arrived.  I so appreciate his servants heart.  I love you mijo and thank you for being a decent young man.  Stay humble in  everything you do, and remember to do everything in the service of our Lord.
