Hi Paul;
Just thought I would put in my 1-1/2 cents worth. Being retired and having lost my savings, We don't visit Star Bucks. We have to look for nickles that may have slipped out of somebodies pocket in the recliner. lol
No movies, watch our trips to town so we get everything done in one trip. The car is broke down and will stay that way until I can save up enough to buy the parts and then I will have to do the work myself.
I know most either have a job or at least have a little retirement saved up, but not everybody.
I will try every way I can to stay a member but some people really have to watch where every $ goes.
And I'm not scolding nor feeling sorry for myself. I just have to " make do."
Russ

Hi all,
Let me try to cheer everyone up a little. Here it is the Day before the eve of Our Savior's birth,
let us say some things we are thankful for this past Year.
I will start:
I am Thankful for the family Our Lord has given me. I am thankful that my son-in-law and
daughter wanted us to move in with them. I am thankful for the three rambunctious grand-kids
that came with the bargain. They sure keep my bride and I jumping.
I am thankful for the great Home we found for our family.
Paul.

This old veteran is in a debt of gratitude, for the gift this Christmas of a year of DG membership.
It really warms my heart and tells me the friends on DG are the greatest.
Many thanks to the one who opened their heart and gave this gift.
A very Blessed and Merry Christmas to all.
