Words and the *I Bet You Thought It Was Lost* Thankfulness List
We are doing a food drive here at the office with each officer in charge of a certain food items. Everything will go to local food pantries. One of the guys was griping because his people were all *stingy* and did not want to bring in the item he was in charge of. Rose accused him of being old because he used the word *stingy*. She told him that people just do not use that word anymore. She then came to my office and was telling me about it.
That started us off on talking about words people do not really use anymore.
Rose: *Stingy* is not a word used anymore. Neither is *chinchy*.
Me: Or *catty cornered* You do not hear that much either. hhhhhmm.....what other words do you not hear anymore.....
Rach ~hollaring from her office~ *personality responsibility* put that on your
list!!
Things that I am thankful for right this minute:
1) Both of my children and how they crack me up for totally different reasons.
2) Going home this weekend.
3) Snickers
4) Emails from bloggy friends
5) Cooler weather
6) Brushing against the rosemary bush in the back yard
7) PANTIES!! It will not be too many more months before we start planning for pantipalooza again!!
8) Reassurances that it is okay to not attend my school reunion.
9) Finding out that my aunt and I are more alike than I ever imagined.
10) Almond Paste
11) The freedoms that I have in this country
12) Candles
13) Food in the house and gas in the CRV
