i am thankful ...

well more reason to give thanks today ... and to celebrate ...


yesterday my temporarily retired groom and my eldest cherub were headed to an appointment, i was just about to head out the door to a boy scout meeting when the phone rang ...

"i have been rear-ended--AGAIN" said my groom ...

for those of you in the know, you know that this is the second time for my groom in less than a year ... the first time, his car was written off and we found a two-year old replacement ... same car but all those things we had commented on "oh it would be so nice to have seat warmers" had been taken care of in the newer updated model ... so it was not a complete loss ...

but, alas, aside from a mild case of whiplash, all is well ...

cars can be repaired ...

and clothes washed (eldest cherub was just about to sip from a smoothie when the impact came at which point the smoothie flew from her embrace and coated the interior of the car) ...

and to be honest, with a 14-year old daughter in the household, there are times when i have not been counting my blessings recently ... but last night i was just thankful to have everyone home, safe and sound ...

in one piece ...

so give your loved ones an extra hug tonight ...

and does anyone know where we can find a slightly used Hummer? ...

ps  happy birthday mom ... i love you ...
