Appreciation for the little things!


Good Afternoon, or whatever is the best greeting to you, in your part of the world!

It has been a full few days. We just came in the door from Costco; love that shopping facility! Alan and I 'splurged' and treated ourselves to our Christmas present. ie. A Canucks comfy fleece navy blue jersey each! A tidbit, best to purchase a larger size to be on the safe side.

The Canucks are our home team! All teams experience their bittid ups and downs; however, we know the Canucks have what it takes to win the Stanley Cup this year. Regardless of unkind comments, public put downs etc, they will come through. In last year's Stanley Cup Finals, the Canucks had a number of injured players (Kessler, Edler, Mahorta, Erhoff, Raymond, as well as one 4 game supension to a player (Rome). That did not help in the 7th game. However, that being said, the team is recovering from their past injuries; so in a tidbitz nutshell: "Go Canucks Go!"

I think too, that every time the Canucks play, I will say a Prayer for their success! Eventhough we do not have the money to go to a game; we will enjoy cheering them on from our T.V. Of course, we will be wearing our cosy fleecy warm jerseys!

Also, Hallowe'en came and went. We had about 30 tid children trick or treaters that came by and it was refreshing to see that their parents came with them. Our little grandsons came by earlier in the afternoon with their Mum; and that was fun seeing them in their costumes. Fortunately, the weather for the evening was cooperative and the fireworks were at a mimimal - much to the relief of our pup, Blue.

We will be having an early bittidz start tomorrow; as there are a number of options that we are working on. In time, things will become more clear.

Tidbit - Rely on Him to direct your path daily, and give Him thanks for your Blessings! When you do that, you have a peace within; and a calmness and joyfulness radiates through to also touch others. They may be in need of a bit of 'generosity of spirit' / good cheer to brighten their day and outlook on their lives.

Bittid - Be genuinely appreciative of the little things! ie. Alan and I are happy with our Christmas gifts today! In Costco, you would think Christmas is already here; given all their wonderful savings, promotions, decorations, etc.

It is now a dark day outside and pouring with rain; methinks a good night to stay home and simply chill out. We also picked up from Costco some cooked prawns with a delicious chili dip, and that will be an extra special dinner tonight. Yum!

Love the above photo image; it looks so peaceful.

Peace and God Bless.
