GIVING THANKS

Before getting too caught up in the hustle and bustle of the 'Holidays' I feel it is important to look around us and remember to Give Thanks for all of the many blessings we have.Sometimes the things that stress us out, aren't even important in hindsite. This week I am going to try to slow down, and look around at what is important to me.I have been blessed this year in so many ways. So enjoy the nice Fall season and have a Happy Thanksgiving Day !!!!

My Sweet Little "Faith"

I had one of the saddest days for a long time. My little sweet Jack Russel Terrior
"Faith', was run over by some deer hunters driving too fast.
It is so hard to loose a pet so loved. She was always so happy and didn't have a mean bone in her. I know this great saddness will pass, but it is still so hard to get by. I feel so lost without her. Dogs are truely womans best friend.

I LOVE FALL

Fall has to be my favorite time of the year. I walked out of my front door today and was in awe at the beauty. Sometimes I get so wrapped up with life, I forget to stop and take a breath of air.
I hope this will help all of you do the same.
