Things I am Thankful for Today
1) I have a job
2) I can walk (this may still come before number one, but I just had my job performance review so the job factor is up front in my mind)
3) I am alive. (This is really first before anything else, but now that I am definitely alive (my energy is coming back) Oh my gosh, I am really out of order here. Being alive is definitely the most important, NUMBER ONE! Being able to walk is definitely NUMBER TWO! That's because I am still very attached to my horses. Well, no, that's just because I can WALK!
4) You just don't know how important things are in your life until you almost lose them.
5) The job is minimal to just being alive and for me, just being able to walk. I came so close to losing both of those.
6) HubbyHoney is agreeing. Thank you Lord for him!
7) Okay, but in today's economy, I do have a job. And that was reinforced in my job performance review. I have a job unless the company I work for closes it's doors. Which in this economy could happen. It's happened to many other companies. HubbyHoney's for example. Obama, I'll keep my liberty, you keep your change.

Why Am I DEPRESSED?
Well actually I'm not, it just sounded like a good title. I am not depressed, not even when all we hear on the news says we should be, the economy, jobs lost, and the massive spending bill that just got rammed down our throats. Why should I be depressed?
I sit here writing this and wonder??? Where would I be without?
See I could say the last 3 months have been some what, shall we say down right depressing, but if you look closely you can see all the reasons for not being depressed!
1: Nov. 8 2008 I come within inches of loosing my Rindy, ah but didn't, she is up and walking and she even went into her office yesterday for a couple of hours, gone from bed ridden to a wheelchair to a cane and crutches to high steeping around the house and property and ridding a stationary bike. (yes I still change the cat box for her)
2: Nov. 11 2008 Rindy has surgery on her knee, I also get told that the company I work for is closing, they did and I got another job.
3: Dec.6 2008 my Dad has a stroke and is flown to Stanford Univ. Hospital, and on Dec. 13 2008 he graduates from this world to the next! He is with Jesus and dancing forever with Mom, and I can only guess what he might be playing on the universes biggest and best pipe organ!
4: Jan. 13 2009 I get laid off, the first time since 1980 I have been without a job, now that could be very depressing but for some reason both Rindy and I have a peace about the situation and that is really more scary than depressing.
So Happy Valentines Day and be close with the one's you love and Praise God for the one's that taught you to be happy in the place you are.
I look forward to what the next 3 months bring and I don't think it will be what our Government can give me it will be what God has in store for us and it will be more than enough to make up for the last 3 months!

Is This Appropriate?
This may not be appropriate for a subject on this blog. It has nothing to do with horses, or my job, or my grandbabies. It has nothing to do with the lack of a job for HubbyHoney. It has nothing to do with living off the grid, having no monthly power bill, but dealing with cloudy days and a generator when you have no solar power.
It has to do with the potential of my son joining the military. I can stand proudly for those others who have joined, and some died, to keep us free. Check back to Sunday, one of my things to be thankful for was the freedom of living in the United States of America. Freedom, choices.
But my own son being one of those to give us that freedom. Very scary!
So I am a mother torn. So proud of the others, but my own son? Oh, yes! I would be so proud! But to encourage him? WOW!! What do I say? What do I do?
My little baby. My baby boy. My youngest child! Yikes!!
