They made me sit here and think about my own life and the many blessings that I enjoy and often take for granted.<br /><br />Now I hope to spend the days until Thanksgiving meditating on the gifts the Universe has given me. Then perhaps I can gently celebrate these gifts in a ceremony on Thanksgiving. <br /><br />Thank you for the prompt your posting has given me to do this.<br /><br />Peace.Deehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00612299013780771262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-13191538073253561502011-11-02T04:13:04.439-07:002011-11-02T04:13:04.439-07:00A lovely, positive post about your happy and produ...A lovely, positive post about your happy and productive retirement, Linda.

It will be worth all of the time and effort in the end. :)<br />Seems like I have been playing catch-up all year long--LOL!<br />My early forced retirement (health) is very different than my folks'. They run here and there, doing this and that...visiting people in one state or another, one town or another--driving, flying...playing cards, choir, photography, crafts...<br />Well, I guess my days are always shifting around, doing this and that...I have various activities, too...just rarely leave the apartment--LOL! ;) <br />Life is good!!

Between all my outdoor activities and my indoor pleasures, I don't have a lot of time to sit on my hands. My mother was lonely after my dad died and spent plenty of time wishing her life was different.<br /><br />Yours is full up to the brim! And yes, I know the feeling of getting to the final publishing part, as an editor we put out dozens of books and I was responsible for all the details. It was grueling but rewarding.DJanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07152183871573797791noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8356815487392618550.post-25743755250213276142011-10-31T05:33:30.003-07:002011-10-31T05:33:30.003-07:00It's a good life.

With all the gloom and doom about the economy, it's easy to fall into the trap of believing that the sky is falling. <br /><br />The book is a great achievement.
