The turkey is roasting and the pie has been baked. I sit here at my spot on the sofa, reflecting on this Thanksgiving afternoon, my family enjoying a quiet day beside me. It’s been a busy couple of weeks and I’m liking this sojourn together.
I appreciate how much I have to be thankful for as I enjoy the view out my “sofa window”. This wonderful place to call home. Work I enjoy. A family to call my own. A full rack of wood out back. A toasty warm house. Food on the table. Unconditional love. A daughter who thinks I’m nuts. A husband who fixes things and makes me laugh. Cats to warm my lap and toes. An ornery dog to stand guard.
Oh, it would be nice not to have to budget so tightly, or worry over an aging car that needs constant TLC. Still, I don’t imagine that it gets much better than this.

A bold bluejay stopping by for a visit.
A goldfinch welcoming the sun.
May you take a moment to treasure your blessings this Day of Thanks.
I hope you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving together.

Just found your website and I love it! You’re definitely living the life. Thanks so much for the wonderful bird patterns. I’m going to the store to get supplies today. I’ll be busy making ornaments for our tree this year and some for my daughter’s. Happy holidays to you and your family. ~ Lisa
Thank you, Lisa. Best wishes to you and your family.
