Just a thought

I am a very blessed person. I really am. Tonight I made dinner for my family. My husband was home from a job he has held for almost 20 years, my son is strong, healthy, and smart. We enjoyed each others company. I washed my dishes with clean water, in a dishwasher. My laundry was done. I washed my clothes in, once again, clean water. I didn't have to go down to a stream. I dried them in a clothes dryer. I talked to my sister on the phone and laughed so hard a little tear almost ran down my leg. My mom texted me. My big brother and his family are safe and happy. My beautiful niece is going to have a baby boy in a clean hospital. My other sister in Utah is finally seeing the light at the end of a very long tunnel. My little brother is happily married to an amazing woman who adores him. My in-laws are well, and happy. We can all stay in touch however often we want. I look out my front windows at my car that is awesome. It's full of gas, it works..it's safe...My Dogs are well fed, they are loved and taken good care of. I am sitting in my warm home, typing on a computer. I have everything I could ever need. I watch the commercials about the starving children all over the world, and I can give money to them without making life difficult for me. I am so very humbled right now. I think of all the friends I have made, and I can stay in touch with all of them through facebook, or texting..I am amazed at all that I can do with just a push of a button. My best friends son is getting ready to go on a mission to Japan. She did it..she raised an amazing young man who is following his heart. My other FABULOUS friend Pam is getting ready for her husbands retirement from the navy after 30 years! How awesome is that? Life is good. Life is as it should be. As this year comes to an end and I prepare for what I am sure will be another exciting, change-filled year, I can happily say that I am good. I love all of you who read this blog...and all of you who don't. May God bless each and everyone of you.
