Nana what a great list of 8 x 8 x 8. I somehow find it so comforting to read your list and know that to be in your prescense would be so relaxing and comfortable. I just might do this list myself, too.

Those lists always help others to understand the bloggers they choose.

I like to read them for that reason.

Thanks, Trish. It always fun to learn a little more about our blogging friends. Your list read much like a list of '24 blessings'...the things that you have done, hope to do and enjoy doing.

Have a wonderful day!

Hi there! Long time no read I know, I've been off the airwaves for awhile busy with life but things are slowing down now and I've been here catching up on your posts! Praise God for your MRI results! I'm happy for you too as you said, arthritis is managable versus something else.

I also enjoying reading that you have breakfast for dinner memories. Just the other night I made waffles, eggs and bacon for dinner because seriously there wasn't anything else to fix! ha ha Family and I loved it though and it made me smile when I read your sweet memories!

This is a fun post so I will put mine together right now and post it as soon as I am finished!

Have a great week!

Thanks for the reminder to be thankful...

The one thing that always brings me comfort is.... the fact that everything is God's, everything belongs to HIm~~

Trish, I've been away from blog world so long...I didn't know you haven't felt well but I'm glad you got a good report. (by good I mean nothing out of the realm of dealing with) It sounds like you have a full summer to look forward to. Have you been to Seattle before or will this be your first visit?

It's nice to visit with my virtual friends again!
