Great-full

Hi Everyone. Wishing you a wonderful Thanksgiving spent where you want to be with people  you like. Some of the things I'm greatful for today are my health, home, friends, family, cat, garden, talents, community, teachers and enough food to eat.

What are you greatful for?

The struggle to pay the mortgage and pay bills on my unemployment check every month is getting old. I'm ready to start a new chapter.
