Here it is 3:05 am Thanksgiving. Normally I would be up preparing the turkey, cutting up eggs, cheeses, etc. for my salads and preparing my dressing (if not made the night before). This year Cleve bought turkey and ham dinners from Dickeys BBQ. Steven & Lucia will be bringing prepared dishes and some Mexican salsa, flour tortillas, and guacamole (all home made per my request) , Pete will make his famous pecan pies, Mac & cheese & heaven only knows what else. You get him in the kitchen and no telling what else he will come up with. I will make pea salad & Mexican salad per request. Kelci & Kaitlyn will help me make devil eggs. It will be a different than usual dinner this year. I just came thru a 2 month hospital & rehab situation. Sweet dear Paul Cargile had a bad accident that has changed his life probably forever. My sweet sister-inlaw, Theresa Loftice has had her plate full worrying and taking care of Paul, Rick , and helping Cleve make decisions and giving some comfortable shoulders on a as needed basis. My daughter inlaw will be having gall bladder surgery ASAP it looks like and could not come at a worse time. Pete will be in sing sing by Christmas, taking care of house, the twins, cooking, working and taking care of Marci Durrett thru her recovery. Steven is a happy camper these days. Looks like Lucia is just what he needed in his life. I have read each day of November the post of what each have posted that they are thankful of. I am rolling all mine together. I am very thankful there is a God that watches over me second by second. He told me to have faith in him and to put no one above him. By doing this, he has prepared a mansion for me. I am thankful for the closeness and love my brother Rick Loftice and I share. I am so very thankful for having such a caring and loving husband. I am so very thankful for my children. I am thankful for my kids giving me the love and support that they give me. I could go on & on. There has not been anything in my life good nor bad that was not directed by my sweet Jesus. I had to be taught and showed the good life with him or the not so good without him. I almost died, friends & love ones have or had hardships. I look around and see others so much worse and thank God I was not in their shoes. Each and everyday, I see or feel something I am thankful for I will close by saying that I hope and pray that each & everyone of you find the number one to be thankful for...
