Advent Drabble 15 - Counting Blessings
For LSW
A line of poker chips shows up on the floor of the living room one day. Arthur cleans it up.
Lucky is alarmed. “But where are the poker chips?”
“I put them away,” Arthur says blankly. “Why? Did you want them?”
“Yes. I’m counting blessings!” Lucky retrieves the poker chips from the drawer. “See? One for you, one for me, one for the cat, one for malasadas, yum. One for my purple tie you got me. One for that glitter bath bomb. So many blessings.”
Arthur sits with her and honestly, within the hour they’ve run out of poker chips.

Is it strange these "men's" Calvin Klein boxer briefs keep all my bits more secured in a comfortable way than any tucking undies I've ever tried?

STILL COUNTING
https://youtu.be/aZjWYgq9QfM?si=nguNBYGXY4zz9PFf
Psalm 92:1
“It is good to give thanks to the Lord, to sing praises to your name, O Most High; to declare your love in the morning and your faithfulness at night.”
As I awoke this morning and as I pushed away the morning fog I turned my thoughts to You, the words, mental assent came to mind.  Immediately I checked myself.  I reflected on Your presence and the intimacy I have with You.  I considered the words mental assent, which is spiritually agreeing with You and agreeing with  Your Word but lacking faith and believing in You and Your Word personally. I trust that as I write this morning's devotion, someone will not only just agree but get an understanding and know You intimately more and believe not lacking faith.  I thought about all the times I trusted in You and all the times You brought Your word to pass in my life and the lives of those I know and love.  I thank You, (ToDa)  Abba for my faith community, for those I serve alongside, and for those we serve as we serve in faith, and as we serve with You...ToDa, Abba, ToDa It is good to give thanks...Still counting...The blessings.............

Giving Thanks
Most of the leaves have dropped, but pictures help me to savor the season. ~ crispness in the air the smell of decaying leaves trees glow with color radiant sunsets proceed some of my autumn delights ~ A lovely sunset at a nearby pond. I recently had a beautiful reminder about the power of gratitude, and plan to make a routine of finding something or someone to appreciate. My life is…

TW: God, Faith, Religious beliefs
I've mentioned the past few days that a storm took out power to our home and many homes throughout our part of the state. It's been a tough thing for me because, like many people these days, much of my life revolves around technology and electronics. Being unable to do the things that normally keep me sane has left me very crabby and very unpleasant to be around. To quote my elder brother "Someone needs to drain [my] NaCl battery."
As I was sitting in church today, I noticed that there was a lot of our congregation who was absent. Our church building has power, so the fact that so many of us weren't there perplexed me. "You would think that something like 'church still has power' would be something communicated," I said to my mother.
My saints of a mother shrugged before responding, "Well, there probably aren't a lot of people with propane heaters or portable generators."
I know she didn't say it to put me in my place, but considering my family does have these things, I did feel a tad humbled.
She leaned over a bit later and mentioned that much of downtown, while perhaps without power, had been left untouched by the storm. "It's a poorer neighborhood," she continued, "and a lot of those folks probably don't have the means to take care of themselves as much as we do. I can't help but feel God was watching our for them, and saved them from the worst of the damage."
I hadn't considered that. I've been so focused in going stir crazy, not having anything to do at home, that I hadn't realized the blessings I still had. My home still stands; we have a generator to keep our fridge and freezer powered as well as charge all the batteries in our phones; we still have cars we can use; we still have internet access to communicate.
I realize I kinda swapped this from "how they are blessed" to "how I am blessed," but the fact remains that a number of people, myself included, are actually doing okay. And I am grateful to recognize those blessings.
So yeah, it sucks not being to hop on and play my games. But the blessings I do have are far more important. And I hope that all of us affected by the storm night be able to return to full functionality in due time. ❤️

sometimes repeating the same information back in your face is funny
sometimes it also backfires :P (everything backfires when it comes to Deadpool, just give up Miguel, he is planning on 100% that sidequest)

Me, an author, side eyeing my WIP: you're not going to do anything weird, are you? We've discussed this. There's a plan. We're going to stick to the plan, aren't we?
The WIP: *presents subplot, presents additional conflicts, presents character development, laughs in my fucking face*
