Thursday November 5th ~

Reflect upon your present blessings - of 
which every man has many - not on your past
 misfortunes, of which all men have some...

 Yesterday I had a good day.  Mom and dad 
came over for lunch.  Arvid went to a meeting in
 Fort Lauderdale.  I did not feel like going with 
him.  Instead I chose to stay home and prepare
several different dishes for mom and dad. 


Usually mom would send us home with
 a ton of food. She still does whenever we 
go over, but yesterday it was my turn to send 
them home with enough food for a week.  I made
 many different types of food.  Happy my mom 
will not have to cook for the next  few days.


We enjoyed a few hours of good food, good 
company and shared laughter. I will always and 
forever be thankful to have mom and dad living
 once again in Florida, and so close to us.


It's Thursday already.  This week has flown by.  
Aside from not having to coo today, nothing new 
going on.  Sniff and I are up early.  He has eaten,
 and is already back to having one of his many 
naps for the day.  Life is good and I am grateful.


It's a funny thing about life, once you begin 
to take note of the things you are grateful for, you
 begin to lose sight of the things that you lack...
