Being thankful this Holiday season

 

It is the Holiday season and I love it 

Christmas is coming fast I love the season because people are kinder, hope and peace all around.

The vaccine oh almost forget today we finally get the vaccine in the USA for covid 19.   It will be a while before everyone gets the Vaccine. but we now have hope.

 I decorated the house with lights and a tree I think of all the Christmas times before. mom loved it so she decorated the whole house we sang Christmas songs to her classic holiday records blasting on the stereo. I remember cooking and mom covered in flour she always said the messier the better it tastes,  miss mom a lot now that I have had cancer I cried during chemo at times in the night wanting her to hold me Like when I little and not feeling well. and then like I said the holiday memories of her are all around me. The decorating the music and the smells of her recipes that I now cook.

this is not an advert but I remember the cardinals we would get so excited when we would see one in our backyard mom loved them as I do today.  I found a saying or meme one day it said cardinals are messengers from heaven from loved ones lost I have heard many versions of this saying and I believe that when I see one it is moms watching over me I saw many when I was going through chemo they made me feel better, well anyway I made an image this year of cardinals for my shop in her memory it did so well I thank everyone so much. here it is. Have a wonderful Christmas everyone.


End November Thanksgiving

Thankful

thankful to be alive and in remission

thankful for my loving husband and so many friends and family who have prayed and kept my spirits up

but this year I have a special thanks  it is to the people who volunteered for testing of vaccines for covid 19 

and for all the healthcare workers who have responded and held people during the pandemic. 

I am thankful for the scientists and doctors coming up with vaccines.

I am thankful for our troops and the freedoms they fight for. 


I am sad that more people are being diagnosed every day with covid 19 and we are up to 250 thousand dead.

I am sad so many are out of work. that we are entering shutdowns and again kids homeschooling.

I am sad so many fight about politics and have forgotten to love one another in some cases.

My hubby gave me a special Valentine's Day gift, I love sloths. But this is not just a Valentine, but also a Family Day gift...
