I just wanted to post a thank you list and update you on my "bucket list" to stay busy and not miss the kids:)
I know it is hard to believe but I actually am making progress on the bucket list - although I am afraid I will not finish it before it is time to start all over again! For the most part it is wonderful to complete tasks that have been hanging over my head for years, yes years!
I STILL DO NOT HAVE A GATE! What is up with that? It has been since May 25th that we have tried to get it corrected. They did come and put another post in, but alas...they took the gate and now it is just wide open! Wait, I am going to go take a picture and post it! Doesn't this just scream, "Come on back and steal or vandalize whatever you want!" Okay, maybe I am exaggerating, but honestly! Frankie and I are getting a good laugh out of it because crying is just not an option.
My thankful list:
I ran into two of my neighbors today, Jana and Tamra, and they brightened my day. I feel so fortunate to have good neighbors. I know they care about me and my family as much as I do theirs. I am also so grateful for my kids having good neighbors - that helps ease the distance between us.
I am thankful that there really is such a thing as a free lunch! My good friend from high school, Lisa, won a free lunch for 25 people AND I made the cut! Woo!
On Friday morning I got to work with not one but TWO of my nieces at the store...may I just say how much I love them? They are awesome:) No, really, even if I weren't their aunt I would think so!
I realize my list would go on and on and on because I am now reflecting on the many many kindnesses shown to me in just the last week...thank you so much. Really, you make my life so much easier. Funny thing is that many of you don't read my blog or know that I am aware of the good things you are doing for me and my family, I am aware and grateful.
Much love to each of you.
