The day before Thanksgiving and I am not running around, buying food, cooking and stressing over having a BIG crowd at my home. One of the perks of growing older is being invited to some one else's home to share in the holiday feast. I've been a vegan for about 3 years, so preparing the traditional turkey dinner no longer holds much appeal. I did a few errands, sat in the sun and read a book on my deck and met with two friends today. One of them brought me an arm full of oranges picked fresh from her tree. I had one, it was delicious and juicy!

This morning I spent some time putting some of the many people and things for which I am grateful onto my journal page. It is not a comprehensive list .... it was really nice to take the time to thank God for the blessings He pours into my life on a daily basis.
