Give Thanks to the Lord...

I thought I'd share this little craft with you.  We had Thanksgiving dinner at our friend's house last year.  She & her kids had done a lot of little projects and I took pictures of a lot of them so I'll probably share more with you later.  This would be an easy project for you and/or your kids.  Get some candles from the dollar store.  This tag was printed on the computer & cut out with shaped scissors, but you could also stamp or write it yourself.  Then tie on the tag with ribbon.  Sprinkle a few fall leaves down the middle of the table, add several candles, and you have a fall centerpiece!


Today I'm thankful for my job.  (Which is also why I didn't post yesterday -- someone was sick & I had to fill in.)  It's not the most exciting job in the world but I've decided to not complain about it and instead focus on the good things & be thankful!  Many people in our area are being laid off.  But the economy hasn't affected our oncology office yet.  Still BUSY!!!  We are getting 2-3 new patients a DAY and we're running out of space.  
I like the people I work with (that's a big THANK YOU, GOD), most days I get off at 1, most weeks I have Tuesday off, but I have the flexibility to work a few more hours when it's really busy or when someone doesn't come in (and I get paid by the hour so sometimes that really helps out), and probably the best part is when I leave the office I don't take home any work.  Poor Glenn has been on his computer at least an hour each night this week working from home.

This is so cute, thank you for sharing. I am not very creative so I love getting ideas from others. Nice to meet you! On Gayle's website you asked about thrifty gifts for teenage boys. I hope you don't mind me butting in, but I have two teenage boys. They love homemade food like cookies, peanut brittle, banana bread, almond rocha, stuff like that and just for them to eat (nobody else, LOL!) They also love $5 Starbucks coupons too.
