Be Grateful at All Times

The greatest source of happiness is the ability to be grateful at all times in all situations. A week or so ago, I told Jerry I wanted to see the Christmas lights in St. Louis. We were about to meet our daughter for supper at PF Changs when she texted us that she was iced in (4:30) So Jerry and I decided to head back to Fairfield. Bumper to bumper traffic, semis off in ditches, and moving 5 miles an hour if we were fortunate seemed to be our evening entertainment. What started out as an ordinary day turned into quite an adventure! I saw the lights all right…thousands of lights from trucks and cars as far as the eye could see. About 11:30, we made it to Hucks in Mt.Vernon and I have never been so grateful to see a bathroom in all my life. AND to top it all off, I had a delicious bologna and cheese sandwich. Little things mean a lot!
