Five Friday Happy Bringers 12/1/23

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. SO enjoying last night’s Savannah Telfair Museum Christmas Tree lighting and Design District Holiday Walk.

2. Our wonderful (and often taken-for-granted) EYESIGHT.

3. HR’s nickname … Squirrel.

New ornament

4. Washington Square at dusk. We live just off Washington Square in downtown Savannah. (Savannah has 22 extant squares, and ours is the northeast most one near the river.)

It’s one of my favorite places to read or rest.

5. Underrated beauty in fall’s scraggly bushes.

May you find lotsa beauty this weekend.

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. Falling beauty. (Even in a Savannah shopping center parking lot.)

I had to look at this leaf for a bit before I started to see its aging beauty as well.

2. Belts.

3. More autumn beauty in Savannah.

The Kehoe House Historic Inn one square over from ours.

4. An early Thanksgiving dinner at our church’s Wednesday Night Supper this week, with ex-wife Donna and our good buddy Margaret.

We all just have SO very much to be thankful for! (Especially those garlic mashed potatoes with gravy.)

5. Covered streets.

May you have a cornucopia of joy this weekend.

“The Best Part!”

Posted on by Neal Saye

So when HR went to see the latest superhero movie today, I rushed over to Chick-fil-A for my first Holiday Peppermint Shake of the season.

Festive Yum!

But the terrifically decadent treat wasn’t even the best part. Oh no! No it was not!

Guess what was?

The folks at Chick-fil-A told me I was the BEST PART of TODAY!!! Me, the best part of their day!

See? Neal! Little me from Savannah, Georgia! Out of the thousands (millions?!) of people who ate at Chick-fil-A today!

Aren’t you proud of me?!

(I’m assuming it meant the world, and not just the United States.)

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. The joy of having, here in Savannah, so MANY art galleries. SCAD, the Savannah College of Art and Design, has several galleries. One of our favorites is the Gustein. a five minute walk from us.

The current exhibit.

2. Geraniums in November.

I saw these on a walk this morn.

3. Our wonderful noses and the ability to smell!

4. Grandson Daniel’s voice in his current play.

5. Lovely lunch with ex-wife Donna and HR at St. John Episcopal Church’s annual Holly Days Bazaar (which has been going on for 80 years now).

Joyful weekend ahead!

My weekly gratitude journal, of sorts.

1. HR and me, having a neat little before-it-gets-cold picnic at nearby Forsyth Park here in Savannah.

2. And me becoming the official spokesperson for Lays.

3. Celebrating Day of the Dead at our church and at home.

Our friend Ruthie, who grew up in Mexico, explaining Dia de los Muertos.

4. Clean running water day after day after day.

5. Grandson Daniel and his actor bundies dressing up for Halloween as Taylor Swift’s Exes.

(D is Harry Styles.)

May you dress up as a Joyful You this weekend.
