My loves birthday

Yesterday was the love of my life, Tamirisc's, 51st...um, I mean 29th...birthday.  My Mom took us out, along with our grand-daughter, to breakfast. We had a wonderful time at Cracker Barrel.  I think our grand-daughter thought it was her birthday but that is ok.

We need this color!

Must have coffee!

The cake. Thanks goodness she did not put 51 of them on there, would have burnt the place down. LOL

Izzy thinks it is her birthday!

Way to go Tamirisc. Happy birthday love!

It was a fun time by all as attestment to these photos.

Excitment in the air

Today was one of those days that you just wanted to jump for joy.  

My daughter for awhile now (about a year) has been living out of a motel with one of her best friends. The reason this occurred is absolutely ridiculous and actually too tedious to even get in to. Let's just say though, the circumstances for it to have happened hurt her feelings quite a bit. Needless to say, I have been nothing but worried for her since it did occur.  The fact is, being that I was 3 states away from her, I could not do much for her either. sigh....

But then, that brings me to today.  

A little while ago I noticed on FB that she exclaimed "I HAVE A HOME!"  I immediately called her to listen to her good news and sure enough she did.

Oh but her new home is not some dinky apartment. Oh no! It is a 3 bedroom, two bath, with a fireplace, walk in closets, jacuzzi tub, his and her sinks...the works.  Here is the kicker too. She and her friend are only paying a little over $600.  Can you believe it?

She deserves this because she has worked hard and dealt with a lot of stuff to get here.


She moves tomorrow! ;-)

Thankfulness

I was reading a blog this evening about being thankful. You can go here to read about it---> Simple Gratitude
Being grateful for the people and things you have in life should be done everyday of the year, not just at Thanksgiving. However, this holiday helps us to be mindful of those things.
I liked that she listed just the simple things because sometimes I think we actually forget those things that are the littlest that bring us such joy.
Although I have not listed my daily thankful here in Bloggerville, I have on Facebook.  So, I thought I would share at least some of my list and keep up with the rest of the days here.
If you would like to keep up with my husband, Tamirisc list, go to this link (he does his a bit different):tamirisc thankful blogs



So here I go:
I am most thankful that my parents said "yes" to having me almost 43 years ago now.
I am thankful for my daughter, son, daughter-in-law and grand-baby.
I am thankful for the love I have from my hubby, Tamirisc.
I am  thankful for my nephew, nieces, uncles, aunts, & cousins.
I am thankful for all the veterans in my life.
I am thankful to the lady who found my cell phone the other day.
I am thankful for the loveliness I am privy to everyday.


Day 15-I am thankful for forgiveness!
