It’s always easy to ask for stuff, since our wants are more or less infinite. But by some mental quirk we often tend to regard what we have as due to us. Thanks are not nearly as easily given or offered.
Some of the best songs are about nothing:“Freedom’s just another word for nothin’ left to lose Nothin’ ain’t worth nothin’ but it’s free Feeling good was easy Lord when Bobby sang the blues…”

Agnes is like one of those inflatable clown toys you knock down and they pop right back up.
She wouldn’t even mind that comparison…. except that in HER mind, she’s not a clown, but a Barbie doll.
Hunter (from yesterday)…. thank you!I love Grandma… and their interplay.

I can actually identify with what Agnes just said. And the older I get, I really appreciate the extra ‘free’ time more and more.

Love it. Agnes has sifted through things and found the magical UP side that everything has. Looks like a white Christmas in her neighborhood.

Sometimes you are thankful for what you don’t have.
