Ah, the first day of December, which happens to be the first Thankful Thursday of the month. It’s hard to believe it’s the final month of 2022 and that I open my Happiness Box in a month. It’s looking full and happier than the start and middle of the year.

I’ve been working on layouts lately to put in the Box. These layouts will be gifts since the first 7 months of 2022 were a rollercoaster.



I’m really grateful for David. I’m really grateful for his love and support. I’m glad we met this year and I’m glad we reconnected. I’m also glad that we became a couple. He truly is a blessing.
I’m also thankful for family and friends. What are you thankful for today?
Hi, Jessica Marie!
Like so many other years, 2022 had a split personality for you, for me and many others. It’s great to know that your Happiness Box runneth over thanks to developments in the second half of the year. The layouts are very pretty, worthy of holding the pictures of you and David and the cherished memories of great times and tender moments. Old friends make great couples, in my opinion.
I am verklempt.
Thanks for visiting Shady’s Place today. I just tested positive for COVID, so I’m not feeling all that well, but your visit brightened my day. Enjoy your weekend, dear friend JM.
