This is the week where we are all thinking about who and what we are thankful to have in our lives.
We recently returned from bringing my parents to visit our oldest daughter in Florida where she is in her third year of college. During our visit, my father accompanied my daughter to a class lecture on arthropods (bugs!). He was able to banter with the professor while sitting next to his granddaughter, who truly enjoyed the experience.I am grateful for the memories made during this trip. I am giving thanks this week for my husband, our two daughters, and our close-knit family and for being able to enjoy three generations of these combined families.
NStar’s Repairs During the Last Storm
Just before we left for Florida, we were hit with a serious storm that created power outages throughout my own precinct and around town. One family here in my precinct suffered a tragic loss when a candle toppled and their house caught on fire. Despite the valiant efforts of the fire department the wind fed the fire and the house was destroyed. READ THE REST OF THIS ARTICLE HERE

Your daughter is a pretty girl, she looks like you, too. What a cute picture. It is so nice to have those memories and for her to be old enough to appreciate them. I think we could all step back and be thankful for what we have. I have a great family, a wonderful husband and 4 beautiful, healthy children, I am blessed. For that I am truly thankful.

janet, sorry you still have to deal with the crazies- people in your precinct won’t allow this woman to pull this stunt on you.
is there a link to her website? when you read it you know she is “not right.”

Janet, The column from Taryn Thoman is a complete joke, much like her. Eveything she wrote about is exactly what she is all about. Just refer anyone that has questions to her hatefull site.
The above post is correct. We will not allow this crazy woman to get away with this. There are too many people that are aware of her and know all that she has done. Once again she has put herself on display to look like the village idiot that she has become.
We are all behind you Janet. Your daughter is beautiful and your parents could not look more proud. Here is a thought. Perhaps that is Taryn Thomans problem with you.
You seem to have a nice life full of happiness/joy and are obviously surrounded by people that love you. Something tells me that is what is missing in her life. If she did she would not be full of so much hate.
God bless.

Don’t link to her web site janet.
Just ignore her and keep doing what your doing.
That letter she wrote really just shows who she is. It sounds like it come from a crazy person. Most people can see that.
