Day 25 - Thankful for my health

The Lord is my strength and shield. I trust him with all my heart. He helps me, and my heart is filled with joy. I burst out in songs of thanksgiving. ~ Psalm 28:7, NLT


I am thankful for good health and being able to enjoy a Thanksgiving meal with family and friends.

We haven’t had a normal Thanksgiving the last 3 years.

2009 I was in Germany and everyone else was hovering around the hospital in Norman in between meals.

In 2008 Alan and I were both very sick with some type of flu and we ate mashed potatoes for our meal!

In 2007, Alan was admitted to the hospital the night before Thanksgiving very ill from some type of virus and then the rest of us (including me) started dropping like flies shortly there after with the same thing in varying degrees of severity). I don't think I ate anything that year!


This year after a Thanksgiving dinner on Post we are headed to Hieldelburg, Germany to get on a bus headed for London! We will be in London Fri-Sat and head home on Sunday.

And who knows hopefully next year we will be back in Oklahoma healthy and ready for a Thanksgiving meal!
