21 Days of Gratitude......Thankful for Meme

We are doing the 21 Days of Gratitude with the kids this year, since our son is at the age to start understanding to be thankful for things and people.

So asking "J" today what he is thankful for he said my meme, and I started to get tears in my eyes. As you read below you will see and couldn't even imagine having to explain to my kids something could have happened. God is an awesome God!!





In June 2012 we were visiting my Mom in Fl and she wasn't feeling too good. She went to the doctors and had an abnormal EKG, so her PCP sent her to a Cardiologist asap. They ran test after test and came back she had a weak heart, along with her heart not working like it should.

Then the doctor wanted to run one more test and when he was doing the test my mom's heart almost stopped. They rushed her to the ER and she had to have a pacemaker put in.

This was the hardest thing for me cause we had already went home to Va. She was in the hospital for couple days. I wanted to get on the plane and go to the hospital and all she wanted me to do is stay with my kids and keep them safe.

She knew my son would worry and she didn't really want him to know she had to have surgery.



My mom is my best friend and we are VERY close. She is also very close to my son who is 4yrs old and now has a bond with my daughter(2yrs) that is amazing as well.

As it comes into that season of being thankful remember that life is short, we are here today and can be gone tomorrow. My world would be so different without my Mom right now.

So I want to say God thank you for blessing us with my mom still here and let us all take the time to be thankful for our family and friends. Even when there is hard times, between each other.

  1. What a blessing that you still have your mother and that you are so close to her! I am close to my family, even though we live far apart and I count it as a huge blessing. So many people don't have the blessing of a close family.

    I'm enjoying the 21 Days of Gratitude and will be posting on the 15th!

  3. This resurgence in interest in root bridges is in part thanks to the efforts of Morningstar Khongthaw, a native from Rangthylliang village, who founded the Living Bridge Foundation. Khongthaw and his team create awareness about root bridges, repair and maintain old bridges while also constructing new ones.

  4. Unlike conventional bridges, root bridges are also central to their surroundings. Apart from producing their own building material, the trees absorb the greenhouse gas carbon dioxide over their lifetimes. They help stabilise the soil and prevent landslides. Conventional bridges can disrupt the soil layers, but roots can anchor different soil structures which helps protect against soil erosion, says Ferdinand Ludwig, professor for green technologies in landscape architecture at the Technical University of Munich, who has been studying the bridges for 13 years.

The latter attempts to reverse degradation and improve the health of the ecosystem. But understanding the living root bridges is not an easy process.

  7. The lack of historical written information on the bridges has also been a challenge in researching them. Until the British colonial period in the 19th Century, native Khasi inhabitants in Meghalaya didn't have a written script, as the Khasi way of life is passed down through oral histories. This has meant that documented information on the bridges is sparse.

  8. But while personnel understaffing is visual, expertise understaffing is insidious. Depending on your viewpoint, that makes it harder for bosses to detect – or simply easier to overlook. “If an experienced person leaves, it can’t be assumed that those remaining can pick up the slack,” says Shen.

  9. The effects of the pandemic, and the subsequent Great Resignation, have created the perfect storm for understaffing. Typically, labour shortages build over years as economies boom in the wake of recession. This process, however, was accelerated following the first lockdown; the economic downturn was short and the demand for workers exploded once sectors reopened. But then millions of people began quitting their jobs.

  10. Gad Levanon, head of the Labor Market Institute at US economic think tank The Conference Board, believes labour shortages could reach greater heights in the new year. “We’re still likely to see greater demands for workers in 2022 because many sectors – hospitality, leisure, transport – are yet to fully recover,” says Levanon. “People are more selective in what they want to do, and you can’t just hire someone off the street and give them a trade job; they require much skill and experience, and that takes time.”

  11. Some businesses are acknowledging they now have to fight to keep their staff, and are beginning to reflect loyal employees’ extra workload by increasing salaries. “There’s growing evidence that employers are giving raises – the average wage in the US is up significantly,” says Levanon. Meanwhile, workers who are covering for depleted teams and are yet to be rewarded with a pay rise or promotion do at least have some pushback. Unlike understaffing during a recession, they could be in high demand if they quit.

  12. That doesn’t mean employees have to necessarily hand in their notice. The current battle for retention gives workers more leverage if they feel overworked, opening opportunities to flag issues to oblivious bosses. “An employee can report understaffing to a line manager and say they can consider their options unless a proper plan is put in place,” says Noelle Murphy, of UK HR resourcing provider XpertHR.

  13. For Akston Biosciences and the other new challengers vying for a part of the market, the price of commercial failure is potentially very high. Two years ago Novavax saw a clinical trial for an RSV vaccine crash and burn. The process cost them tens of millions of dollars, resulted in employees being laid off, and the sell-off of two development and manufacturing facilities.

  14. To date an estimated 47.7% of the world's population, including large swathes of South America, Africa and Asia, is yet to receive even one coronavirus vaccine dose. The great hope for second generation vaccines is that they can make major inroads into this problem, especially as unvaccinated populations are at even greater risk from any new variants that might emerge.

  17. California-based biotech Gritstone have recently launched a Phase I clinical trial in Manchester, using a method known as self-amplifying RNA (saRNA), a newer form of the mRNA technology. Initially designed for use against cancer, saRNA produces copies of itself once inside the body's cells, meaning that you can induce the same response as an mRNA vaccine, but with a dose that is 50 or 100 times smaller, making the vaccine cheaper and easier to make.

  18. When handled well, such transitions from one stage of life to another can be "key turning points in children's lives" and "provide challenges and opportunities for learning and growth on multiple levels", the review's authors argue. While the review does not mention specific school-entry rites, many societies mark the big day in some way. In the UK, families typically prepare children for school by buying a school uniform and a new pair of shoes, while in Japan, children are given traditional school bags known as randoseru.

  19. In Germany, the cones tend to evoke powerful feelings of nostalgia in adults. But as Löwe's book documents, they have also reflected the country's tumultuous and violent history. In a photo taken during World War One, a little girl holds a school cone in one hand, and a model of a grenade in the other, inscribed with a message wishing her courage and strength. Children sent photos of themselves with their school cones to their fathers out in the battlefield. In the Nazi era, some cones featured swastikas.

Nestler's family won back ownership. She grew up next to the factory, amid the smell of glue. From her bedroom window, she could see into the packing room, where the colourful cones rolled by on an assembly line.

  26. Hedgerows are as British as fish and chips. Without these walls of woody plants cross-stitching the countryside into a harmonious quilt of pastures and crop fields, the landscape wouldn't be the same. Over the centuries, numerous hedges were planted to keep in grazing livestock, and some of today's are as historic as many old churches, dating back as far as 800 years. Today, Britain boasts about 700,000 km (435,000 miles) of them, a length that surpasses that of its roads.

  27. In recent years, ecologists – especially in Britain, Ireland and continental Europe, but also in places that have more recently adopted hedgerows, such as California – have come to view these man-made structures as important ecosystems in their own right. They form a vital reservoir of biodiversity in human-dominated landscapes where many species might otherwise struggle to survive. By nurturing pollinating insects, they can enhance the yield of crops. And they do it all while pulling carbon out of the atmosphere.

  28. This growing ecological appreciation is invigorating efforts in many regions to expand hedgerows, or hedges, and so help combat both the biodiversity and climate crises.

  30. More plant species often mean more animals, especially if the plants flower and bear fruit at different times. "The little birds love them," says Charles Bowerman, a farmer who takes pride in his hedges and hosts hedgelaying training for young farmers. Bowerman plants his hedges with about a dozen plant species: In addition to the traditional thorny plants such as hawthorn and blackthorn, he includes hazel, field maple, wild privet, dogwood and holly.

  31. This July, gorged by days of rain, the Meuse River broke its banks, and the Belgian town of Liège was its victim.

  32. Nor was this corner of Eastern Belgium alone. In nearby Germany, around 200 perished, with journalists describing the flooding as a once-in-a-century event.

  33. Yet as the mayhem unfolded, one corner of Northern Europe suffered far less. In the Netherlands, the summer flooding was also described as the worst in a century and property damage was severe, but the country survived the floods without a single fatality. There are many reasons for this: quick evacuations, strong dikes and robust communication among them. But what underpins these varied forms of flood defence is an institution: the so-called "water boards" that have protected this waterlogged land for nearly a millennium.

  34. These associations are worth understanding for the way they blend local democracy, direct taxation and crystal-clear transparency to put water at the very core of Dutch life. And the Netherlands is not alone. From the Ethiopian uplands to the communities along the Danube, water managers the world over have borrowed aspects of the Dutch model for their own needs, improving life for thousands along the way. They may soon be joined by other regions, as countries the world over face up to the rise in inundation and floods that come with climate change.

  35. You can also see echoes of the Dutch systems in how Ethiopia approaches representation. Nothing like elected water boards exist along the Awash: the nation's democracy is too fragile. Even so, the Dutch and local officials have encouraged smallholder farmers to join local water user associations, giving them collective power to negotiate with the state and industry. Modest schemes like this, argues Huisman, are typical of how the Dutch operate abroad. "You have to look at the principles that are under our governance model – and change it when you apply it to other countries."

  36. It's tasty on toast or stirred into tea, but honey is much more than a sweetener. Certainly, the viscous liquid is mostly sugar, which hive members use for sustenance, but it also harbours enzymes, vitamins, minerals and organic molecules that give each honey its uniqueness and confer a slew of health benefits to bees.

  37. Bees made the split from wasps around 120 million years ago, during a surge in the evolution and spread of flowering plants. This floral diversity – along with a shift in bee behaviour of feeding pollen, rather than insects, to bee larvae – spurred the evolution of the approximately 20,000 bee species known today.

  38. Becoming an expert honey-maker took a few more behavioural and chemical tricks. Bees started adding a bit of nectar to the pollen, which moulded it into more transportable bundles. They also developed wax secretion glands, which provided a way to separately store the liquid nectar and solid pollen.

  39. "The wax allows for a very flexible building material," says Christina Grozinger, an entomologist at Penn State University, who studies mechanisms underlying bee social behaviour and health. When forming a honeycomb, honey bees mould wax into hexagons, which turns out to be the most efficient shape to store something, since hexagons pack tightly together. "It's an engineering feat," Grozinger says.

  40. The process to yield honey that will fill those comb cells begins as soon as a foraging bee slurps up nectar. Though it might look like she is eating it, the sugary snack doesn't end up in her stomach, at least not in the traditional sense. She stores it in her crop, or honey stomach, where it mixes with various enzymes.

  51. According to Fowler, the conversation around regulation and insurance companies' new role within this transport space needs to mature.
