I am going to make all the gifts that I can even if it costs more to do it. At least the gifts will be personal and heartfelt instead of "just get me out of this store 'cause I am sick of shopping" purchased junk. <br />Wishing you all the blessings of Thanksgiving everyday!<br />SusanSusanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12996683270441131873noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-47064997030667649232011-11-22T06:05:30.793-06:002011-11-22T06:05:30.793-06:00Hi Jayme, been following you for a while now, but ...Hi Jayme, been following you for a while now, but never left a comment until today...and it's for a reason you probably won't anticipate!

It has taken me until just a couple months ago to get really comfortable and accepting of the "ordinary" daily life around here. It took me a bit to get my routine established and to realize plain and simple, that I am a domestic kinda girl. Home is where my heart is. <br /><br />We don't have any children and I get a lot of "looks" when I tell someone I don't work. It's almost as though the social norm is that I would have permission to be a housewife if I was raising children, otherwise they can't figure out what in heavens name I do all day at home. <br /><br />I didn't mean to write a book for a comment. :) I've been chewing on some thoughts lately and they just jumped to the keyboard. <br /><br />Hope you have a Happy Thanksgiving!Melissa @ thelittlegrayhousehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11772149908931555737noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-35564076338173069032011-11-21T12:22:39.678-06:002011-11-21T12:22:39.678-06:00I'm with you.

Home is where we store up and get strong, then off we go out into the world... ready for anything!I started with garlands this weekend, then we brought down the trees from the attic, then the boxes but I am NOT going to decorate till next weekend! I don't apologize to anyone, it takes me longer to decorate than it used to so I have to start early. This year Thanksgiving is at out oldest daughter's house, freeing up some time for me to get a head start. This week's meals will include cornbread and beans.... and tonight dinner will be breakfast with biscuits, all so I have the makings for dressing/stuffing on Thanksgiving... and we're off and running!Joy Tiltonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04183952085695405635noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1220470666707560125.post-35035263454279966332011-11-21T08:50:34.923-06:002011-11-21T08:50:34.923-06:00I love you, Jayme!
