Truly they are Earth Angels. One I am teaching piano. Both will order seeds and plants for next year's garden which I will grow to the planting stage, and they will take over from there. So I will still have a garden even though the most I can do is water something. Their mother, Debby, is bringing us Thanksgiving dinner.</div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default">I am thankful that all of my family is still alive. For some of us we can only hope for better days ahead. Even I can get better, my cardiologist says.</div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default">I am thankful that Roz did not come off worse than she did: she fell and broke her right shoulder and her left forearm, the latter of which she will have surgery for next week. So I am doing just about everything for her that I can do, and thanks to Angela, my daughter, for her help so far. Roz has osteoporosis, so the fall could have been much worse.</div><div class="gmail_default"><br></div><div class="gmail_default">Having a heart attack is always a wakeup call. So I've had mine. I take disgusting pills that are said to keep me alive, and should be thankful to have them.
