This is true for many people, but I am not one of them.
I have moved on, but a lot of my past that was not good is not something I have forgotten. And I don’t want to forget it.
Every time a piece of my dark days come to mind I am thankful because it reminds me of how much God did for me and still does for me every day.
Some days I listen to sad music with words much like what I lived through. It is amazing how much better I feel after memories of bad situations come to mind and I again thank God for bringing me out of them.
Each of us know what works best to help us to always be thankful for the rescues and blessings in our lives.
As I was writing this post part of a song came to mind…”Me and Jesus got our own thing going, me and Jesus got it all worked out.” From the song “Me and Jesus” by Tom T Hall. Together me and Jesus get things done every day.

This past Saturday was the last of the Christmas get-togethers for me. I was blessed to get to spend a few hours with some of my children and grandchildren, three of them I had not seen in a very long time. It was kept secret and I didn’t know they would be at the gathering. I was overjoyed to see them.
My daughter prepared a beautiful table of food for everyone to enjoy. She was mindful of my need to have gluten free and much of the food I was able to eat and enjoy, We played games, laughed and had tons of fun. What I enjoyed the most though was being with my loved ones.
Christmas Eve my friend spent the day with me and we played Scrabble and enjoyed a good meal. I am so thankful for all she does for me.
I am thankful for the beautiful Christmas cards, phone calls and text messages wishing me a Merry and or blessed Christmas.
Thank you, to my wonderful, beautiful sister for all the laughs, tears, help, advise and love throughout the year. What in the world would I have done with out her. She solved some issues for me and I didn’t have to rely on YouTube or do a search to get the answer. :) She is always ready to lend an ear or shoulder when needed as I am for her.
Thank you to all my neighbors who watch over me and call or come by to see if I am okay or need anything.
Thank you to everyone that follows my blog. You are some of what made the year 2025 great for me. Thank you to those of you that have given me helpful information or advice. Thank you for the laughs, tears and prayers, they always seem to have come just when needed. I appreciate each and everyone of you and enjoy your blogs very much.
Not all of the year was good, there were some pretty rough bumps in the road, but with answered prayer and much help I made it through. All in all it was a very good year. Many unexpected blessings came along just when they were needed.
My heart is full of thanks and gratitude. I am looking forward to 2026 and the blessings to come.
