Thankful

Nov
27

I want to tell each and every one of you how thankful I am to you for your willingness to contribute to support this site–and I will, soon. (If you don’t hear from me personally, that means I screwed up and lost your address, so I’m apologizing already just in case.) I also want to thank each of you who left kind words and thoughts. I am humbled by your sweetness, and can only hope that I can live up to your support. I may not be rich in dollars, but I am rich with the blessing of all of you. This site means a lot to me, and to know that it means something to you, too, is amazing. This site is my heart and soul, my family and my farm and my heritage (and for those of you who live in or are from WV, I know it’s your heritage, too, and it is really important to me to honor that and lift up West Virginia to the world for the awesome, yet mostly ignored, place that it is). Thank you, thank you, a thousand times thank you for simply being here! You are what makes this site special.

I wish everyone a wonderful Thanksgiving, and as Coco likes to say, “Don’t forget to take a nap.”

    Happy Thanksgiving Suzanne! Thank you for blessing me each morning with your writing and pictures. Sharing your life has replaced the morning paper with my coffee. Your blog is where my pc takes me first everyday (unless there is urgency in checking winter weather updates).

    Blessings to you and your family this Thanksgiving day!

    Happy Thanksgiving right back! I wish I could spend more time here, but life got in the way again. But, I come every morning earlyearlyearly to see what is happening in your corner of heaven. Thank you for my first smiles of the day! These are so appreciated.

    Happy Thanksgiving to you all in West Virginia from the central Illinois prairie. You inspire us all to try things we might not ever try. Blessings.

    I am very thankful to the Lord for YOU! May God bless you and all He has given you! You have no idea what a gift you are to so many.

    And Happy Thanksgiving to all of you! My family is spread far and wide, but I will be with my “other family” – generational friends of 35 years. Voices on the phone are almost as good – have talked to one sister, will talk to my daughter (living in corn in Iowa now) next, and have one sister to go. Coco, I’ll think of you when I nap later, but not too loudly as I’m sure Emma, my calico, will join me. :catmeow:

  17. Kacey says:

    Hope you and your family have a great Thanksgiving! …and I’m sure I’ll take Coco up on her suggestion of a nap…

    Ohhh, who couldn’t love that little sweet Coco face!!!! :mrgreen: Happy Thanksgiving Suzanne to you and family and to everyone here!!
    I am so blessed by your site, Suzanne – the wonderful things you share with us, from precious farm critters, to how to make wonderful pie crust (mine turned out beautiful, thanks to you!!) and other fabulous recipes, for your humor and well, I could list a PAGE here..but for all the wonderful things you do, for US…thank you and God bless your family! :mrgreen:

    Happy Thanksgiving, Suzanne!!!

    Have a lovely holiday.

    West Virginia certainly looks lovely. Why is it ignored?

    Didn’t John Denver call it “Almost Heaven” in Country Roads?

  25. Susan says:

    There are a lot of things in my life I’m thankful for and you, my friend, are most definitely one of them! Happy Thanksgiving!

    Happy Thanksgiving!

  27. catslady says:

    It’s over and I’m exhausted but it was a wonderful day! Hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving!

    Bought your newest book Wednesday. I’m also taking Coco’s advice a lot–too much, I’d say. I wish I could do with fewer naps.

    I hope that you and your family had a wonderful Thanksgiving feast. Knowing what a great cook you are I wish I could have been an invisible(?) guest. LOL

    I know things are always hopping around your place. I’m still trying to get sorted out from my latest move Sept 9-25. Yep, that’s how long the actual move took–never mind setting up everything again. I came across most of the books of yours that I have. Do you still have contests so that I might get the rest of them?

    Cheers and best wishes.

    Hope you had an AWESOME Thanksgiving!! I’m grateful for your fun blog. You are charming, insightful, educational and just plain fun! You are regular part of my mornings and, thanks for being there. :typing:

    Now…go have some left-overs! :hungry:

    Blessings from Ohio…
