A request for my small band of readers

The End

Here it is, the day I've been procrastinating about for a week, the last post.

My 365 days are well over and with minimal bobbling I met the challenge of posting something to be thankful about everyday.  I decided early on that I didn't need to post 365 unique things to be thankful about.  I probably would have quit that.   My daily posts seem to outline a daily life and routine of work and children, church and music, family, and the beauty of the world around me.  For all of it I am deeply grateful. 

Today, and everyday, I am thankful for a life that is grounded in faith.  I am thankful for the life, death, and resurrection of the Lord Jesus, the Christ.  I am thankful that the Spirit kindled faith within me.  I am thankful for faithful, loving parents who set me on the path of faith.  Without the gift of faith any thankfulness is me talking to myself.  With faith it is a prayer and a conversation with God, Most High, the Creator of the universe.

Many of you have entered the conversation and left comments.  I have enjoyed your participation.  In closing this blog I would like to ask a favor of all who have read along and followed, whether you have posted or not.  I am setting my comments to "anyone" so anyone who reads regularly can post without the hoops of accounts, passwords, and goofy words to type.

Please post something that you've been thankful for as part of this culminating post.  After a couple weeks I'll change the comments setting and by then may have figured out what the next blog might look like. 

Thank you!  I'm am thankful for you.

I've got my counting straightened out through October.  I'm pretty sure this will be the last count through and I can wrap it up!

It's been fun romping through the year.  I seem to stick to about 10 topics and have variations on similar thankfulnesses.  But, that's a year in a life.

On the way to Dad's place.

Beautiful day-nice day for a drive.  That's a light fog/haze over the Antelope Valley.   It was thicker on this side of the mountains and didn't make for good photos. 

Autumn continues.

I spotted some roses from the kitchen window.  This year's temperate December weather has them putting on a show.   As soon as I came out the door, though, this greeted me:

Fallen leaves for tromping through,

Mine, all mine!

Even having dropped so many leaves 

I was still under a yellow canopy.

Leaves of every color.

Flower show!

Who needs a vase?

Can't not post....must put in placeholder.

I can't seem to end this incarnation of blog until I fix my numbering so I'm posting but not this evening.

Bones and Knitting

400 posts!!!!!  Continuing inThankfulness with another 24 post in there on this and that.  Quite a few Wordles in the early months.

I am thankful for watching my favorite show, Bones, with another fan and knitter.  We had a pleasant evening and converted one of her friends to fandom.

Hopefully I'll find the time this weekend to finish walking through my numbering and post my last post.  I'm ready.

Today I'm thankful for physical therapy.  I'm feeling like my shoulder is feeling stronger after about 3 weeks of work.  (tendonitis)

Good choir this evening, nice day with 4 year olds at work, it's been a lovely fall day.
