Soon I will turn 78. December 6 is my birthday. I am thankful to become 78. My sister died when she was 77. I am two and a half years her junior and after she died at age 77, and I turned 75 that same year, I joked that I was in good health at 75, but I would need to watch out when I was 77. I thought it was funny. Little did I know that without modern medicine and many prayers and healing hugs from family and friends that I might not be here to turn 78. So Thanksgiving 2015 was a special day.
I was able to do everything I enjoy on Thanksgiving Day. The Macy's parade was spectacular. I went for a walk with Ken in our neighborhood as the day was 70 and sunny. The family came for dinner in the middle of the afternoon. I talked to son David and brother David on the phone. And I got to watch football on TV. Turkey and football is a winning combination. And soon I will be 78 where I will have another thanksgiving day. Giving thanks is a wonderful thing.
