I've been a little (well a lot) tardy in my posts. Since early December our house has had a revolving door, I seriously can't remember who stayed where, when or who said what and it's still revolving.
This week I'm grateful for not being affected by floods.
I've sat glued to the TV watching in disbelief as the floods devastated Queensland. I can only imagine the shock of loosing loved ones as well as the family homes. It's not the bricks and mortar loss, it's the personal items that can never be replaced, family photo's and mementos. I couldn't imagine having to flee my home without my beloved pets, but sadly many people had no choice.
This week I'm grateful for living in Australia.
We will rebuild Queensland, thankfully we love in a country where we can afford to rebuild. It makes me proud to see everyone rallying around, helping with the cleanup, opening their wallets. We really are a lucky country.
This week I'm grateful for.... my husband
We celebrated our 25th wedding anniversary this week. Well celebrated is a bit of an understatement, we both worked, I cooked dinner and we flaked out exhausted like every other week night. 25 years is quite a feat. It hasn't been an easy road, in fact we've hit plenty of pot holes over the years, though we've managed to climb out of them and forge ahead. I think what's helped us is that neither of us are sulkers, we have a row and then get over it fairly quickly, or maybe we're just plain lazy.... who knows? Hopefully we'll see another 25 years out.
What are you grateful for?
