Sunday Sundries--Gratitude Redux

Ah, so grateful you made it back for another week of Sunday Sundries! Hope your Thanksgiving and weekend after was super and that you still fit into your jeans....

Alas, I had an injury at work on Thanksgiving day, so I spent the next two days sleeping and recovering.

Boris actually got up on my lap and slept with me a couple times and Natasha wanted to be right up next to me. I'm feeling better now, thank you.

Isn't she sweet?
I've been going through a ton (literally) of my needlework patterns, honestly assessing if I'll every do them and getting a box ready to go to a resale service. I might have to do this one, though...

This one was shared by my father-in-law during the election hoopla. I'm grateful for my family:

I'm grateful very much for the books I have on shelves, in boxes and in my Kindle:

I am grateful beyond words at my husband of almost 25 years. He truly:

Finally, I am grateful for all of you out there, who have taught me, encouraged me and listened.

Love to all--be back next week. Keep writing!
