Cowgirl's Country Life: Thank you

Monday, September 19, 2011

Thank you

Sometime life has a way of sticking it's foot out and tripping you up so you land flat on your face. When that happens I usually pick myself up, brush myself off and keep on going.

This last fall sort of knocked the wind out of me... I need to stay down and catch my breath.
It might take me a little bit longer to get back up.

So.....while laying here thinking about life.... I am overwhelmed by the amount of kindness and support I've received from all of you via my blog, email and in person. I'm not sure how I got to be so lucky as to have friends like you.
Thank you so much for your thoughtfullness, support, well wishes and hugs. You have no idea how much I appreciate you. I am truly a blessed woman.

Thank you! Wish I could give (((HUGS))) to all of you.

Sounds like that's the best thing you could get right now. Sit back...reflect...heal. You are blessed with a great place to do so.... We'll be here when you are ready.

Sincerly,

the amount of kindness and support you have received is only a portion of the thoughtfulness, encouragement and support you have doled out to me and others through out the years. You are blessed because you have blessed.

AZdesertFarmer said...: Jeanie,
I've only spoken to you once before(re: raising shrimp)but have been following your blog since the day I found it. You invite us to share in your life and by doing so we feel like we know you. I am so deeply sorry for the loss of your loved one. It will take time to "get back up" but you will. Know that all your blog friends share your pains as well as your joys and our thoughts and prayers are with you. Take care, and don't push too hard to try to make things feel "normal" again.

notbobvilla said...: One person can touch so many other lives, I'm so very glad to share in your life's trials and triumphs. Our lives have to have the good and the bad, the failures and the triumphs, sadness so we can know joy and always remember that you have people who care about you.; September 20, 2011 at 8:00 AM
Kevin L. said...: Take as much time as you need to heal the pain, to fill the empty spaces with loving memory's. Come back stronger and more self confident in your love of family and friends. In the end our faith and love for each other is our only true treasure, the rest is just stuff.
God bless you and keep you and yours.

Glad your taking your time and sorting out what life has dealt you. We have all been there at one point or another, and I offer warm wishes for better days ahead, and understanding.

Take your time "getting back to normal" if you need we will all be here when you get back to us.; September 20, 2011 at 4:33 PM
cowgirl said...: Thank you TJ, NotBob, Kevin, Vickie, Dave F, Mrs JP, Caspar and COMA44. I appreciate your friendships and sharing the good times and the not so good times we have all had over the last few years.
Kevin you are right, faith, family, friends and love are all that really matter. Everything else is just "stuff". :)

Anonymous said...: Hi Jeanie, Coma44 said it right , we've all been there at one point, you'll live and you'll cry, then you'll live some more and you'll cry some more. The crying is good for the soul. Again, be strong and keep faith. Another Chris; September 20, 2011 at 7:40 PM
