A THANKFUL THANKSGIVING

AS I SIT HERE QUIETLY AND THINK, I KNOW I HAVE LOTS TO BE THANKFUL FOR THIS THANKSGIVING.........A WONDERFUL MARRIAGE, A LOVING AND DEVOTED HUSBAND, 3 LOVING PETS, A HAPPY AND COMFORTABLE HOUSEHOLD, AND MIRACUOSLY RE-GAINING MY HEALTH, AND A HEALTHY AND ENERGETIC HUSBAND!

WELL, I HAVE ONE MORE THING!!!!!!!!!

I'M GOING TO SEE JIMMY ON THURSDAY, THANKSGIVING DAY!.............I JUST CAN'T BELIEVE IT.........HE JUST FOUND OUT TODAY, THERE ARE 2 HOUR VISITS ON THANKSGIVING DAY.............AND HIS FRIEND IS NOT BUSY THAT DAY, AND WILL DRIVE ME THERE!............I'LL PICK UP SOME FOOD, LIKE ROASTED CHICKEN, AND PUMPKIN PIE, AND WE'LL ALL EAT TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!!1  I JUST CAN'T WAIT.........HAVEN'T SEEN HIM IN 2 MONTHS!!!!!!!

WELL , NOW, I'LL JUST GO AND DO A FEW THINGS......HE GAVE ME A LITTLE LIST OF CLOTHES AND THINGS HE NEEDS, SO I'LL GATHER THEM TOGETHER!........I'M KIND OF WALKING ON AIR!

ALSO, I KNOW ALL YOUR PRAYERS ARE VERY STRONG.....PLEASE SAY A SPECIAL PRAYER THAT HE WILL BE CALLED TO THE PAROLE BOARD THIS WEEK....EITHER TOMORROW OR WEDNESDAY....THAT WOULD MAKE FOR EVEN A BETTER THANKSGIVING!

LOVE,    FRAN

I am not sure where to start. I am a recovering addict who started a journal online much like you are doing. I am also a convicted felon who spent time in the Prison System in Illinois. I am a white female 34 yrs old. I was wondering do you want to put your Husbands past mistakes  to good use by teaming with me to start a program that I am working on called JellyBeansFamily. I am not sure where you are located but the dinner is tenatively scheduled for Nov 29,2004. The idea is to have a year round program where FAMILY"S of incarcerated people can come for help, to be heard and the like. I understand now more than ever that what I did affected so many INNOCENT PEOPLE THAT LOVED ME!!!! my e-mail address is toobad242@aol.com. Anyone willing to help or that has any suggestions PLEASE E-MAIL ME!  Fran, I wish you and your husband all the hapinesss your heart and hands can hold. Julie

Happy Thanksgiving, Fran and Jimmy!  Loving thoughts and prayers are coming your way, as always, from me to you.  I also have so much to be thankful for....all the way to MY wonderful husband, my very special friends, who we will spend some of the holidays with...those friends that are far away, that we can't spend physical time with, but are always close to our hearts, and my special, VERY special friends online.  Those are the people that touch us in ways that not many others can....those like you, Fran.  And people that come into our lives...who we may never meet face to face, but who we will never EVER forget.  Thank you for all of these things, God.  Love you, Fran and Jimmy.  Gretchen XOXO
