Today is the day the LORD has made and I REJOICE and am GLAD in it. It's a great day today. It's my granddaughter's birthday. I will call her when I post this. I'm thankful for getting to church this morning. Everyone liked the cake. I brought half of it home. We're a small church group that we planted today. I still got my hugs. It was a wonderful time of worship and teaching. I'm thankful the patio got power washed today. I didn't expect them to work on Sunday, but they did. Now, I can set up the patio again. I'm thankful I have the notifications finished and could spend time with you today. That's been my day. I also watched the Packers beat the Bears 24-14. No overtime this week. It was a good game. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The photo belongs to me. The cake.

I am thankful that I was able to give my relatives gift cards worth $15 dollars so they could shop for groceries at Wal Mart today.

It's delicious! No, it's banana, pineapple, coconut. I found a paleo recipe online and decided to make it a while back. I made a few changes to the recipe so it would be completely compatible.

@just4him Oh, I see. I also power washed our porch in Spring. I always do and then I protect the wood with a special paint.

No. No problem with the patio. They're power washing them. They're almost done. I should be putting my things back on the patio, just not the table since it's cozy in my closet while I work on it. Thank you. It's very good.

Cake looks good. Glad you will be able to enjoy your patio. I have to confess I'm not feeling very thankful just now. I've woken up about 3 hours earlier than necessary and feeling pretty annoyed about it (and tired).
