We give thanks

But, it's a dry heat so it's not so bad right? I hate it when people say that, lol. I've spent a great deal of time in AZ and 110 is still 110, dry or not! The humidity just makes you sweat more is all? I think the highest it ever got when I was there was 115 and I couldn't imagine how folks live in that all the time??? I was a regular visitor in Tombstone for years dating back to the late 70's. Boy has that town changed over the years!

Sorry Sampa for the OT, here's my take on that. If it's over 100 it's just plain HOT, the same as if it's below zero it's just freaking cold! I cannot tell the difference between zero degrees and 15 below or 32 below its just COLD! In the same way I cannot tell the difference between 100 and 115 it's just too darn HOT!

So I have another thing to add to my being thankful (to go back on topic)

I am thankful that my son can lend me money to pay my bills on time since my boss FORGOT to sign our checks before he left on vacation! He will be back on Monday, unfortunately my bills are due tomorrow and my tags are due by Sunday so......

No worries Michelle, your staying on coarse. There's no cut in dry way to the way we write about what we are thankful for. Some praises we need to share with others so they too can praise the Lord.

Sampa, my apologies as well for being OT. I guess I'm the one who started the OT subject and for that I apologize. It was not my intention to take away from this thread?

This gives me another thing to be thankful for... folks not getting upset with me when I make a boo-boo like this.

 

[sampa]

No, your conversation means the thread is alive. It should flow this way and sometimes a spin off thread. Love you two.

Well I tend to get off topic at times and I need to have my reins pulled back in to get a grip, lol. It didn't use to be that way but, these medications are somewhat to blame in my opinion.

 

[Lone Wolfe]

Blessings back at ya!
