It’s not Thanksgiving yet, but after the year and a half we’ve all endured, there is so much to be thankful for. I mourn those who got sick and passed away or have lingering issues from Covid. The grief will stay with all of us for a long, long time. But I am thankful that those who are close to me managed to stay healthy.
I am thankful for the
vaccination that means I can now get out more. I still wear a mask because at
this age I have underlying conditions that worsen when I am sick. So, I am also
thankful that the mask kept me from developing the flu or colds last winter.
My assortment of masks, bought and made by friends.
I am thankful that I am finally
able to visit with friends and family this summer. I can’t begin to tell you
how much I missed hugs and in-person conversations and trips that were cancelled
and my children and grandsons.
Hanging with friends one warm summer evening - note huge lobster float in the pool
I am thankful for the bounty of
the farmers in the area, where I can fill up on wonderful fresh vegetables,
fruits, eggs, meat, and seafood. And decorate my deck with herbs, lettuce, and
tomato seedlings, that are now growing and producing.
I am thankful for the flowers
that bloom in my now overgrown garden.
NOT my messy garden, but my son's neighbor's GORGEOUS garden
I am thankful for lobster rolls
from one of the food trucks that social distanced on our town mall (the
rectangular green that sports a beautiful gazebo where music is played all
summer, a Christmas tree that is lit up November through early January, and the
area that afforded social distancing for all our farmers to set up their
markets.)
I am thankful for all the
surprises nature bestows on us every day.
