Thankful Thursdays

For another year with those I love.

So far, 2019 has brought everything but the kitchen sink (that’s too bad since I’ve been wanting to replace mine). I don’t know about you, but I’m exhausted! Certainly, if Baby Yoda could talk, he’d say “this a boring year, was not.”

While I am thankful that God helped me overcome this year’s challenges and also accomplish some goals, what I am most grateful for is His gift of more time with those I love. Because, without a doubt, there is nothing better or more important than that. Don’t you agree?

So, are you ready to ring in a new decade? I guess that would depend on which almanac you follow (let’s not overthink this, people). I go by the Year of the Lord calendar – Year 1. So yup, I’m ready. I say, bring it on!

To my gang: As always, dale, ready up the traditions! Wherever midnight finds us on the 31st, let’s bring out las uvas, la maleta, y el cubo de agua. Let’s do this! And cheers to many more.

What are you thankful for today?

Signing out for 2019, until next year’s post…si Dios quiere.

“Drop the last year into the silent limbo of the past. Let it go, for it was imperfect, and thank God that it can go.”
-Brooks Atkinson

“The chief beauty about time
is that you cannot waste it in advance.
The next year, the next day, the next hour are lying ready for you,
as perfect, as unspoiled,
as if you had never wasted or misapplied
a single moment in all your life.
You can turn over a new leaf every hour
if you choose.”
-A. Bennet

“Here’s to the ones that we got
Cheers to the wish you were here but you’re not
‘Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
Of everything we’ve been through
Toast to the ones here today
Toast to the ones that we lost on the way
‘Cause the drinks bring back all the memories
And the memories bring back
Memories bring back you.”
-Maroon 5
