This is the day the Lord has made and I WILL rejoice and be glad in it. I'm thankful for the privilege and opportunity to go to church. This morning we had our candlelight Christmas service singing many familiar Christmas songs. I also gave out many Christmas cards to friends. I'm thankful for the Christmas cards I pulled out of the mailbox this morning when I got home from church. Thank you @JudyEv and @Elizaby for the beautiful cards. I also got one from a cousin. Above are all the cards I've received this Christmas. I know you can't see all the cards because there are a lot of them. I'm thankful for the power nap. It was necessary as I was falling asleep at the computer. It has been a good day, and now it's time to go to bed. I have pool and therapy first thing in the morning. What are you thankful for today? Thanks for reading. The image belongs to me.

Power naps are good, but I’m thankful for long rests while recovering from a head cold. There is very little that is as beneficial in the way of medication as plenty of rest. I feel terrific now! Have a blessed day!

Sounds like you had a rather productive day. I am glad to hear it. I'm thankful the weather was present, despite being overcast and threatening rain. I am thankful that yesterday had gone well, despite getting out so late. I'm thankful I got the dish washer done (I still have to empty it), but I'm just thankful in general.

@just4him I was never a big fan of Christmas cards (or any holiday card for that matter), but I know that lots of people enjoy sending and receiving them.

@moffittjc My late ex's family wasn't either. I got out of the habit of sending cards when I was married. I got back in the habit after the divorce.

@DianneN Thank you. There's just something about Christmas cards and the verses they contain and the love given by the people who send them that makes them a special treasure.

Thank you. I got two more today. Not from myLotters. Family. I treasure those cards. I don't throw them away when the season is over. I have all the cards from the past couple of years when I started sending cards to myLotters. They're wonderful memories of good friendships I've made here.
