Happy Canadian Thanksgiving

Happy Canadian Thanksgiving to all my friends and family! Tomorrow is our families 'first' Thanksgiving, complete with a ham dinner and chocolate moose pie. In November we go with the traditional American Thanksgiving fare and have a lovely Turkey dinner.

I am Thankful for so much this year.

My children are all healthy.

My husband is not out to sea for this mission AND we can see the retirement 'light at the end of the tunnel' light. Nine and a half months....that's it. And then after 20 years of service to his country, the love of my life starts a new adventure. I have no doubts he will embark on something equally fun and exciting!

I am Thankful for having a truly deep relationship with God. It's taken a lot of years to get back with my walk with God and it feels nice to feel his power in my life.

I am thankful that we no longer have stress or grief over Shelby. Don't get me wrong. Mary is still a raging nut job. She has gotten progressively worse over the years, but we no longer allow her to bring stress into our home and it's nice to have finally gotten to this point.

I am thankful that in this economy, Mark and I both have jobs (at least he has one for another nine and a half months! lol)...

I am thankful that I am married to a man who loves me unconditionally. No questions asked. He just loves me. And I love him. He is good for me...and I am good for him. And I still find him the most sexy man alive! :)

I am thankful for my friends. I have surrounded myself with the most amazing group of women and I am truly blessed to have them in my life.

I am thankful. Just that...Thankful. And I never take any of it for granted.

Hugs to all,

Jaye
