Re: I am blessed.

Pretty much the same as you Robert. I only wish everyone could be as fortunate as I am. I don't live in a posh house, just an ordinary 3 bedroomed semi but I want for nothing, we get nice holidays, I have a great family, we both enjoy good health. What more could I ask for ?

Re: I am blessed.

You are both right - you are blessed and I am happy for you both .....
I am blessed to have my Hubs .... everything else is a struggle, but I wont dwell on that - no point at all .....

Re: I am blessed.

I dont know what I did right but I seem to have had a lot of good luck in my adult life, if I was to list it all down I'd be here for a long time. I never planned anything, I'm not religious but I still say the special prayer my Granny thought me when I was a boy, it's short and sweet and to the point, she wasn't very religious either. Everything turned out great for me despite a very shaky start, I want for nothing, and if I was to pop off tonight I wouldn't mind, my mind is at peace, I had a great life and I'm more than grateful for that, I only wish others could be as lucky as I was.
