I thank God for you...

First of all, Thank you so much to everyone who commented, sent emails, cards and/or called me!!! I am SO truly blessed to have ALL of you as family and friends!! I love you all SO much!!! :)

You definitely know how to give a girl courage to stay the course and the knowledge that she is loved. As silly as this may sound to some, I thank God for blogging! It has truly changed my life for the better. :)

And in some ways, it can be a bad distraction. This week is going to be a hard week with the surgery and recovery. Next week is Thanksgiving, which needs to be all about our little family. So, I am going to be on amini- break this week and after that we will see. I am having some computer problems, as well, so that will figure into how long I am gone. I have not been on the computer since Friday evening (not even touched it) and I have noticed a remarkable change in how I feel and what I have accomplished without the distractions of even just checking my email! (Hard to admit but sometimes admitting is necessary for cleansing the soul!) :)

So, I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving! I may post some Thanksgiving recipes here as I get the time to do so (maybe after everyone's tucked in bed which is remarkably earlier lately!) so be sure to check for those recipes! :)

I will see you when I return! Everyone have a very Happy Thanksgiving and I will try to keep in touch with you via email, when I can.

Love and many thanks to all of you for your encouragement and prayers,
Julie

*please pray for my sister, Tammy, and her husband, George, and their children, Jesse, Michael, Sarah & Rose. They are going through a divorce and have decided after trying to reconcile that it will not work. Pray that hearts are changed and God does a mighty work in their marriage. I will not give up on them!!
