Thankful Thursday.....

Saw this on Facebook from my friend, Lanie, who used to be on Multiply with a whole bunch of us who are now on Blogger....


It made me chuckle so I had to share it!  I am more German than Irish, but with a maiden name like Kelly, in March I proudly claim all the Irish blood I have running through my veins!

I emptied three more 'large' boxes last night and it still doesn't even look like I've made a dent, but we are getting there!!  It's not easy when I am working every day.

The Museum's Gala is this Saturday, so I have to find my Gala clothes (guest room closet, I think) and figure out what to wear this year.  Nothing new, but I have some nice things to choose from.  I'm a bruised, scratched up mess right now, so my top must have long sleeves.  My hands are cracked and dry....washing dishes and things with bleach in the water.  What was I thinking?  Ashamed to even go to the nail place.

This will be my last Gala, since I'll be retired next year and we sure can't afford tickets ($800 a couple).  It is the Museum's biggest fundraiser of the year, with a silent auction too.  Makes for a very long day-night.  We won't get home until after midnight, but it is fun to get dressed up and to enjoy a five-star meal with some of Lakeland's movers and shakers.  (My profile picture is of us last year at Gala.)

Thanks for stopping by!!  I am so thankful for so many blessings, including YOU!  Peace & hugs!
