One night last week, a friend and I went to a restaurant for supper. It was nearing closing time, with few diners. There was one waitress and one cook.

We decided to split a three-egg ham and cheese omelet. He included a pancake. I added toast. 

He remarked how good he thought it was.

As we got up to leave, he walked over to one gal and asked, "Are you the cook?"

For just a second, I noticed a look of horror on her face. What was he going to complain about?

He continued, "I wanted to tell you that was probably one of the best omelets I have every eaten!"

She thanked him for his comment.*

A trivia game comes into my computer daily. One question with four possible answers.

"What was the worst hurricane in the history of the United States?"

Hurricane Katrina. Hurricane Hugo and two others.

The answer was a hurricane in Galveston, Texas in 1900 where between 3,000 and 6,000 people were killed.

Because of a lack of communication and technology, people there didn't know it was coming.

While Hurricane Ian is a big mess and will continue to be for years to come, as residents in Florida and southeast United States untangle, we, and they, have much for which to be thankful.

We don't have to include thousands of people losing their lives.

"No matter what happens,
always be thankful.
for this is God's will for you
who belong to Christ Jesus."

~ I Thessalonians 5:18 LAB
