thankful thursday.... on friday

but hey, it's my first. tanya started it yesterday, and i like it so thought i'd give it a go.


what am i thankful for today?

i am thankful for dear friends who, no matter how difficult their life is, take the time to have you a part of their life, and make your life all the richer.

i am thankful for fresh air, clean surroundings, and ikea.

i am thankful for a toilet that flushes *and* somehow manages to not sound like i have an imaginary roommate who's tinkling all day long!

i am thankful for a mom who i love very much, and i miss very much, and i look forward to seeing again, one day, in the great beyond......

i am thankful that there are some things that i don't understand.... like just what 'the great beyond' means, or where that phrase comes from.... and not knowing everything brings humility.

i am thankful for the slow but sure taking down of my harp from the willow tree.....

i am thankful that this life is but a vapour.... it makes all things endurable.

  6. I am so sorry that I missed your thankful post last week...I am way behind on blog-visits...
    To be honest with you, I have never heard "the great beyond" before.
    I LOVE Ikea...I could spend all day there just getting ideas for our home.

    Thank you for sharing and again I apologize for the delay.
