You must trust and believe in people or life becomes impossible...
Trust can be a fragile thing, but it is the foundation on
which all relationships are built. Sniff knows that no matter
what happens I will always take care of him, protect him and
forever love him. Just like he loves us. Sniff trusts us.
Thanksgiving is just a few days away. We are not really
doing much this year. Even though we actually have 2 dinner
invitations, we have chosen to decline them both. Growing up
we entertained so much. I have the best childhood memories.
My parents' home was always filed with friends and
of course all five of their girls. My sisters entertain often,
and my parents continue to do the same. What happened
to me I'm not sure. Arvid ๐? Who knows?
I do love to cook and have family over, Arvid is not always so
keen on entertaining. I guess as time has passed by, I have gotten
into the habit of less socializing. In all honesty I won't mind
doing a little more, but Arvid is not keen on socializing.
Although I will admit, he is so much better now than
he was a few years ago. When he was first introduced to
one of my family's "function" as he likes to call it, he was a bit
taken back. Just a regular gathering was 50-100 people.
Even I was taken back. I didn't even know most of them.
That's Indians for you. You invite one, and that one tells
it to another. Next thing you know the entire village
is at your house. But boy, growing up sure was so very
entertaining. And work. We had a great childhood.
The days have been a bit on the gloomy side lately, and as
mentioned cold for SWFL. On the bright side, still super warm
compared to most places. Overall can't and won't complain.
Even Sniff is feeling a little more tired and bla today.
On the other hand, Sniff is always happy no matter what kind of a
day it is. He knows he's loved and safe. He's my happy place.
To all a good day. Strive to find things to be thankful for,
and just look for the good in who you are. Yesterday I had the
first of my 16 breast scans. Plus I had 3 tiny tattoos place on
my body as a guide. I am ashamed to say that the the needle
poking me caused me to flinch. I do not tolerate pain well.
Acknowledging the good that you already have in
your life is the foundation for all abundance...
