Happy Hodgepodge Day! Hope you all are having a good week!
2. September-October-November...your favorite fall month? Tell us why. If you live in the southern hemisphere use these months but sub spring for the word fall.
November is my favorite fall month! It is my birthday month, the weather stays consistently fall, leaves are at their peak in the south, leaves are falling, it ushers in the Christmas season, so many sales, people feel more grateful this month, it is soup and sweater weather, need I go on?? Okay, college football, Thanksgiving, cozy evenings, fire pits.
3. A song you love with the word thanks (or some form of that word) in the title or lyrics?
2 songs come to mind...both a little different :)
1. Thank you Lord by Dennis Jernigan
FOR ALL THAT YOU'VE DONE
I WILL THANK YOU!
FOR ALL THAT YOU'RE GOING TO DO!
FOR ALL THAT YOU'VE PROMISED
AND ALL THAT YOU'RE
IS ALL THAT HAS CARRIED ME THROUGH!
JESUS, I THANK YOU!
AND I THANK YOU!
THANK YOU, LORD!
THANK YOU! THANK YOU, LORD!
THANK YOU FOR LOVING AND SETTING ME FREE!
THANK YOU FOR GIVING
YOUR LIFE JUST FOR ME!
HOW I THANK YOU!
JESUS, I THANK YOU!
GRATEFULLY, THANK YOU!
2. Kind and Generous by Natalie Merchant
4. November is National Peanut Butter Month. Are you a fan? What's the last peanut butter bite you had? Fill in the blank: peanut butter and _____________________ .
Oh, and you can't say jelly.
I don't like peanut butter. The last peanut butter I ate was in a nutter butter cookie when I was in elementary school. For some reason, I would eat a nutter butter cookie! So maybe it has been 45 years since I had peanut butter??
5. This week's gratitude question-What event from this past year are you most grateful for?
This was on one of the hardest days of 2025, but it is also a day I am thankful for as well. As some of you may remember, my daughter lost one of her best friends in the Texas flood on July 4th. Three days later when the body was rescued, my older daughter drove 5 hours home without us knowing she was coming. When she arrived at the door of our home, the 3 of us embraced and I just cried hugging my daughters. It was such an emotional moment and I am so thankful for my daughters showing up for each other.
6. Insert your own random thought here.
The movers come today! Yes, I am moving this week. I hope to regroup with some blogs soon to catch y'all up on some of the recent activities here. Closing hasn't happened yet, so it all isn't done until all of those transactions are complete, but moving will be in motion later today!
Hope you enjoy your day!
