Sunday Blessings #4

-
Good Sunday Morning to each of you! In this time of uncertainty that many of us are now facing due to Corona Virus or CO-VID 19, we need posts like this to remind us that there are things to be thankful for and that we are blessed more than we can imagine.

Are you well? Do you have food on your table? Are you loved by someone? If so, you are blessed? The small things can mean a lot at this time. I am recommending that we all do something kind for someone else this week. It might be a card, a phone call, check on an elderly neighbor, leave a thank you note for your mail carrier, etc. Just be kind and thoughtful!

Onto my blessings!

I am thankful this week that I live on a farm and that I have food and shelter to bless us during this time of uncertainty. I have been blessed this week by a dear blogger, Linda, who was kind enough to send a game that she played with her grandchildren to my grand doll and I. Thank you so very much! Your kindness is contagious!!

I have been able to spend time with my daughter this week, although it means that she has been laid off and that is not good with her being a single parent. I am blessed that she is fully aware that times are tough for everyone at the moment and she is not asking for help right now. She seems to believe her time off will be short lived, but I am worried that it is going to be much longer than we ever expected.

I hope you will share in this meme and write your own blessings for the week and then link up here.

    Glad you are doing well. We are in the thick of things in NYC, but personally I am more than okay. Well stocked and able to cook and I am surrounded with support. I have younger neighbors that have picked up things I wanted. Our synagogue does twice daily prayer services via Zoom that's been great and my Weight Watchers group is also doing Zoom, so I get to connect with friends on a regular basis. Take good care!

    Good to know you are well. I wish our weather was warmer so I could start my garden. Still I spend time outside just to get away from the constant virus news.


    Hugs Diane

    Carol, I was so surprised and grateful to see your comment on my blog recently. I had been away from blogging for so long that I didn't think any of my "old" (none of us are old! ha!) blogging friends would still be around. You warmed my heart with your words - thank you so much! :)

  The Boxcar Children (The Boxcar Children, #1) by   Gertrude Chandler Warner ,   L. Kate Deal   (Illustrator) Carol Slater 's review Jan 31, 2024   ·    edit it was amazing A Classic! I read this as part of a challenge to read classical books and this month was to reread a classic.

I decided to start with the first book in the series and I will read the entire series again this month as long as time allows. The Boxcar Children is about a group of 4 orphans that are siblings. They feel that they have to make it on their own to stay together. One day while walking in the woods, they discover an abandoned boxcar and decide that they will make it into their home.

 Good Monday morning ladies, how are you? It is super cold here, but I am thankful for our wood stove and plenty of good heat. I am joining Sandra over at  Diary of a Stay At Home Mom  for the Happy Homemaker Monday link up party. She is so kind to host this weekly and there are many of us bloggers that enjoy this weekly post.  The Weather: Cold, snowy, below zero wind chills and temperatures of a night. I believe our high for the day is to be 7 degrees F. BRR!!!!!! I hate winter when it is like this. I don't mind cold, but I don't like Artic cold. I am not a fan of the ice that occurs when we have temperatures like this.  Right Now, I Am: Sitting at my desk drinking coffee. As I look out the window, I see a bit of snow and maybe a bit of a sunrise. It is about -18 degrees with the windchill and so it looks cold! I am listening to the news that my husband left on when he went out. It is not something I care to do, but I just haven't gotten up yet, to change...
