It’s Monday! What Are You Reading? a place to meet up and share what you have been and are about to be reading over the week. It’s a great post to organise yourself. It’s an opportunity to visit and comment and er… add to your groaning TBR pile! Hosted at The Book Date.
Merry Christmas to you all. I finished up buying the stocking stuffers on Christmas Eve. I have been doing stocking stuffers for the past 31 years. My oldest is 31 and the youngest is 12 so I do stockings for the 9 that still live at home. It’s a fun time had by all. I was sick for the past several days, but I woke up today feeling mostly better. Thank goodness, no one wants to be sick on Christmas. It’s been such a lovely day with family and the cats. I hope your day has been relaxing and peaceful for you.
Wishing you a season filled with health, happiness and the gift of well-being! Thank you for helping me to make the blog great. I appreciate all your input and comments. Here’s to a marvelous 2024!

Christmas will be here before we know it and I’m not ready. What about you? I still have gifts to wrap and baking to do. I always do my baking 2 days before Christmas, otherwise it’ll all get eaten. The kiddos are off school on the 21st and return January 2nd. Summer vacations and holiday breaks aren’t as bad as they used to be because they are older now with the youngest one now being 12. Our oldest son and his wife are expecting twins, and we all are greatly looking forward to the birth. Due date February 8 but they won’t let her go past 37 weeks they said. These are our first grandchildren, and the anticipation is high. We have about 24 hours of rain coming in today and tomorrow so a soggy time will be had. Have a great week and let me know how things are with you.

This week has been incredibly busy with going out Christmas shopping, a doctor visit for my hubby, taking our son back and forth to work, library trips, taking stuff to GoodWill after a cleanup, multiple trips to Walmart and visiting my husband’s parent’s graves. I’m glad to be taking a day off from running around today. I’ll be reading and taking a walk today. I hope your health is well and you’re finding some time to relax.
“Being grateful does not mean that everything is necessarily good. It just means that you can accept it as a gift.” ― Roy T. Bennett
“Everyone enjoys being acknowledged and appreciated. Sometimes even the simplest act of gratitude can change someone’s entire day. Take the time to recognize and value the people around you and appreciate those who make a difference in your lives.” ― Roy T. Bennett
“When you are grateful, fear disappears and abundance appears.” ― Anthony Robbins
“As the years pass, I am coming more and more to understand that it is the common, everyday blessings of our common everyday lives for which we should be particularly grateful. They are the things that fill our lives with comfort and our hearts with gladness — just the pure air to breathe and the strength to breath it; just warmth and shelter and home folks; just plain food that gives us strength; the bright sunshine on a cold day; and a cool breeze when the day is warm.” ― Laura Ingalls Wilder, Writings to Young Women from Laura Ingalls Wilder: On Wisdom and Virtues
“Feeling gratitude and not expressing it is like wrapping a present and not giving it.” ― William Arthur Ward
“I have been finding treasures in places I did not want to search. I have been hearing wisdom from tongues I did not want to listen. I have been finding beauty where I did not want to look. And I have learned so much from journeys I did not want to take. Forgive me, O Gracious One; for I have been closing my ears and eyes for too long. I have learned that miracles are only called miracles because they are often witnessed by only those who can can see through all of life’s illusions. I am ready to see what really exists on other side, what exists behind the blinds, and taste all the ugly fruit instead of all that looks right, plump and ripe.” ― Suzy Kassem, Rise Up and Salute the Sun: The Writings of Suzy Kassem
“A little “thank you” that you will say to someone for a “little favour” shown to you is a key to unlock the doors that hide unseen “greater favours”. Learn to say “thank you” and why not?” ― Israelmore Ayivor
“Gratitude is one of the most powerful human emotions. Once expressed, it changes attitude, brightens outlook, and broadens our perspective.” ― Germany Kent
“If tragedy never entered our lives, we wouldn’t appreciate the magic.” ― Nikki Rowe
“Making the ungrateful grateful will bring tears to your eyes, tears of blood bleeding from the heart.” ― Ana Monnar
“Ingratitude to God does not rely only on our refusal to give the verbal thanksgiving due to Him, but also recides in our inability to appreciate his gifts and potentials in us by leaving them untapped.” ― Israelmore Ayivor
“Express gratitude for the greatness of small things.” ― Richie Norton
“Even when you don’t see Him working, He’s busy working on your behalf. Forever grateful for God’s grace!” ― Yvonne Pierre, The Day My Soul Cried: A Memoir
“It is impossible to lose everything and still be alive.” ― Mokokoma Mokhonoana
“Count your blessings as the more you are grateful for what you have the more there is to be grateful for.” ― Pravin Agarwal
“Be grateful for what you already have while you pursue your goals.” ― Roy Bennett
