They follow:<br /><br />Goodness, I have so much to be thankful for this Thanksgiving. Where do I start?<br />Without the friendship and encouragement of my fellow Bloggists (is that a word?) my world would be bleak. We really do laugh together and cry together. They inspire me. Our monthly luncheons are a treasured time to talk of writing, of our home-lives, of cabbages and kings. The time goes by far too fast before we scurry off in our different directions.<br />I am thankful for the fascinating people and wonderful friends I have made since I found my new life in this 'land of the free and the home of the brave.' <br /> For the amazing adventures life has thrown at me. For the strength and ability to survive. <br />I am also truly thankful to have my loving family in England. My big sister Annie, my brothers Ted, Phil and Peter, my cousins, nieces and nephews. Although we may be thousands of miles apart, we are very close, speak often and meet up whenever we can - and still giggle together like a bunch of five-year-olds.<br />I am eternally thankful for the many years I had with my darling Rick, my late husband, who I feel watches over me still. He taught me so much and always helped me to laugh at life's adversities. I think I am most grateful for the gift of laughter: the ability to laugh with others, to laugh at myself and at life's absurdities. <br />And I am most grateful to have this Blog, that gives me the opportunity to formulate and share my thoughts...<br /> From RosemaryGBPoolhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12190573764848658894noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1628814011025215047.post-14562501186722501952015-11-25T09:27:33.908-08:002015-11-25T09:27:33.908-08:00Mar, that's hilarious!

Everyone went around and told the things they were grateful for. She said, "I'm grateful for my clitoris." You can imagine! <br /><br />Thank you for your thoughts which remind me of all I have.
