THANK YOU'S in Postcards 4

Front door in 2004.

I’m playing housewife today. Washing the sheets, buying a few groceries, and most important, saying thank you often as I move about my day.

The house is tidy. You can even see the top of my drawing board. The dishes are done…or were last night. I’m tidy though I didn’t get in the pool today as the pool heater was broken. The house is decorated and presents wrapped. What more could one want.

Just to say thank you. Thank you for that inner peace I have found. Thank you for the man who came to dinner…George. Thank you for my children that treat me kindly after I gave them a horrible childhood. Thank you for our friends. And thank you for the beauty around us.
