Many Blessings

Omg, I can not believe I have not been on here for soooo long... PIT-TEE-FULLL! Anyway, Hello Yall!

In honor of the most laid back of all holidays, I wanna list some of the things I'm thankful for...

1. My new office! Love being in here! Facebooking, etc. w/ the lil tv on (watching local stuff, even) my GROOOVY green chair (thanks MawMaw), my funky lamp, Elvis (the Beta) twirling around in his toooo small bowl and my BFF's (Colby and Benny) snoring on the floor. It's quickly become my fave place in the house to be!

2. The new windows that Mr. Peyton put in the bathroom and the kitchen! Wow! It's unbelievable the difference a window can make! They are "double hung", what, what! Actually, that means that you can lean them towards you to clean. I didn't know that's what that meant--that's why I'm saying. I certainly am sure you know that! I've never been privy to such high falootin stuff! All the windows here and at the old home place were the oldies, w/ storm windows, from like the 50's! Now my kitchen windows won't look like the sink faucet has a continuous spraying problem!

3. That I have a hubster that can put in new windows and do all kinds of home improvements! He also just cut a hole (if you will) in the living room floor and put a beautiful cast iron grate over it so that the heat from the wood-stove can more evenly disperse upstairs! There's a lot to be said for a Jack of All Trades! xoxo

4. Discovering the tv series on AMC, Mad Men!

5. Having the BEST friend, who pushed me to get on the ball to discover that phenomenal show.

6. Evy having a WHOLE week of doing good on school-work and behavior! He's doing good this week too! Yay! (Wonder if it was the sign I got to put up for him this holiday season that says: "Dear Santa, I can explain..."

7. Ean knowing how to drive and maneuver the tractor so well! I'm quite impressed! He went out the other night in the pouring rain and filled up the bucket w/ wood and did great!

8. Joseph Jackson Birckhead, Jr has not smoked a cigarette since October 4th! HOLLA! Even though there's a rodent in his house that's steadily smoking, inside the house even... ugh!

9. A Good Life!

God is Love--Peace Out
