thanksgiving: It's Thanksgiving Day!!
- 11/23/23 08:29 AM
From Pam & I, we want to wish each of you and your families the happiest and most fulfilling day. We all have so much to be thankful for, Every new day is a gift as is every breath we take. The turkey is stuffed and in the oven. We found the bugger trying to hide as a lamp. This is my favorite Thanksgiving humor picture. I asked Pam what I could do to help. She replied, "Get out of the kitchen!" LOL... It seems I get in the way and interrupt her thought processes. Isn't that what husbands are for? [grin] Two of … (19 comments)
thanksgiving: Holiday Package Safety
- 11/18/23 07:50 AM
Well, here we are at the beginning of the Holiday Season. Thanksgiving is this coming Thursday 23 November. Then 1 month later it's Christmas.
Recently we've seen uncontrolled theft of retail stores by roving bands of marauders. NOW, that has begun to move to delivery vehicles. Just this week our local Police Dept issued guidance to help prevent package theft.
Have a very Happy and safe Thanksgiving and Holiday season … (18 comments)
thanksgiving: November 2023
- 11/01/23 09:02 AM
For me, it seems the back half of this year has whizzed right past. Maybe it's because the retail stores started going full Christmas display in early October. There are no delays or cancelations on the Time Airlines So, here we are, it's 1 November and only 3 weeks until Thanksgiving Day and roughly 7 weeks until Christmas. Soon we will be in 2024. WHOA, put on the brakes! It was just Y2K and now 24 years later? 24 years? Where does the time go? It reminds me of a scripture verse from the teaching in James 4:14 "You don't even know what … (11 comments)
thanksgiving: A Day of Thanks...
- 11/24/22 09:22 AM
The day has arrived, Thanksgiving Day 2022. On this day we are called to unite as one family and offer our praises and thanksgiving to our Creator and Sustainer for the many blessings He has bestowed upon us. It doesn't mean we didn't have struggles or even hardships along the pathway. Our Sustainer brings us through those and many times what we thought was a hardship turned out to actually be a blessing.. We live in a land of abundance. If you don't think so go talk to the burgeoning public storage industry. We have abundance which is to be shared with … (32 comments)
thanksgiving: A Christmas Story for Thanksgiving...
- 11/24/20 10:13 AM
Let me disclose, upfront, I saw this shared story posted on Facebook. It really moved me and reminded me of how blessed we are as a Nation and a People. No matter how bad things seem we must always remember our American roots and what we are all about. SO, this is a Christmas story for Thanksgiving. It's a longish read BUT well worth it. xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx It was Christmas Eve 1942. I was fifteen years old and feeling like the world had caved in on me because there just hadn't been enough money to buy me the rifle that I'd wanted for … (12 comments)

The name of this AR blog is "A Day in the Life..." The blog could contain anything, including articles and stories on Real Estate. Today is a Thanksgiving story.

As I was stopping there I asked her if she wanted me to pick up a turkey.We're bringing one … (12 comments)

- 11/23/18 05:29 AM
I promised myself I wouldn't do it...BUT...I still did it...Lol Stuffing is my downfall. I don't know what Pam does but it sure is good. Thanksgiving at our home was a day of blessings. Family gathered together, prayed, conversed, listened to music, ate, watched football. There was no discussion of politics or social issues, other than that which we prayed about AND then it Happened...I become the turkey that was stuffed...hahahaha Sooooo...this morning is a workout on the Total Gym™ and a day of smart eating. I can see turkey stew, soup, and sandwiches in my future BUT not today. I'm glad I planted the For … (37 comments)

Good Morning, The day has arrived. The house has all these great aromas from desserts baking and a turkey being cooked. The house is warm AND It's Cold Outside!! I don't know if it's the coldest Thanksgiving on record or not. If it isn't it's surely missing one heck of an opportunity...lol
I want to wish each of you a very Blessed and Happy Thanksgiving. We have much to be thankful for. Remember to say prayers for our troops serving in harm's way on this day.

thanksgiving: 12 Days of Thanksgiving #4
- 11/16/17 04:35 AM
Today is day 4 of the "12 Days of Thanks Giving 2017- ActiveRain Challenge" offered by Debbie Reynolds.
Pam & I were blessed with 3 strong strapping sons. When they were little the pediatrician was amazed at how often we were in his office because of sickness or an injury. They were boy's boys if ya know what I mean. Ben, Jon & Andrew. We used to think we had 9 sons because all their friends would hang out at the house. Musta been cuz we would feed them...lol. I think most parents can write a book of antics about their children. We could too. Through … (12 comments)
thanksgiving: 12 Days of Thanks Giving #2
- 11/13/17 07:57 AM
Today is day 2 of the "12 Days of Thanks Giving 2017- ActiveRain Challenge" offered by Debbie Reynolds. As the graphic states "...there is always something to be thankful for." Today my day 2 thanks are directed to my wife Pam. Here we are the night before we celebrated our 40th wedding anniversary in 2015. As all couples do, we have persevered through some very tough times even to the point of contemplating divorce (all my fault). Through these times we learned that love is much more than the gushy mushy love people think about. She learned about the worst side of me and still loves me. We … (6 comments)
thanksgiving: Yet Another Reminder...
- 11/03/17 08:28 PM
It's that time of year again! And everyone will be reminding us about it and what we need to be doing. YUP Christmas is right around the corner! By my count, there are 52 days left til Christmas. The stores have Christmas music playing and all the Christmas junk is already displayed.
But wait a minute, the turkey's right. Back off Santa! Thanksgiving is first! But, methinks the turkey will be singing a different tune soon enough.
Hold your horses there, turkey! First, I think you're forgetting our veterans. It's important that we remember our Veterans on November 11th. Be sure and pick up a poppy from … (24 comments)
SECOND, Be sure to VOTE on Tuesday, November 8th. This IS the most IMPORTANT election of our lives
THIRD, World War I – known at the time as “The Great War” - officially ended when the Treaty of Versailles was signed on June 28, 1919, in the Palace of Versailles outside the town of Versailles, France. However, fighting ceased seven months earlier when an armistice, or temporary cessation of hostilities, between the Allied nations and Germany went into effect on the eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. In 1954, after the … (8 comments)
thanksgiving: A Day for Thanks
- 11/25/15 09:21 PM
We all have much to be thankful for. I am thankful for all those pioneers that left their country(s) and family(s) to establish a country rich in liberty & freedom. Never before was a government seen such as they established. From the beginning, it has been under attack from those within and from the outside. It is left to the watchful care of We The People, having been established as a government Of the People, By the People, For the People. "We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain … (15 comments)
