Doesn’t really seem like enough time, does it? My month is about to get really crazy, so I’m going to 30 Day It right here, right now. And here we go:
- Of course I am thankful for my family and my friends
- and their health
- and happiness
- I am thankful that B and I have good jobs,
- and are able to live in a district where Thor goes to an excellent school
- and that we are able to live in a sweet, little house
- and that our cars are paid for, and both of them still run (!)
- I am thankful that my son loves to read
- I am thankful for the ability to write and make people laugh
- I am thankful for good doctors who are repairing my mother
- I am thankful that I truly like my coworkers
- I am thankful that Al Gore invented the internet
- I have the best in-laws you could ask for–they are up there in 1, 2, and 3, but they also deserve their own thanks because they are that awesome
- I get to live in Texas. Texas is pretty amazing, y’all. No state income tax.
- I am thankful that we get to travel
- I love my silly dog, and I am thankful for him
- We are coming up on our 10 year anniversary, and I am thankful that B asked me to marry him–sparing me from having to propose to him
- I am thankful for old photographs
- and for good memories
- and for great memories
- I am thankful for all the old family stories rolling around in my head
- I am thankful to live in this time period where we have electricity, indoor plumbing, and 5000 channels on TV
- I am thankful for coffee
- I am thankful for a strong back
- I am thankful that as I give thanks, I can remember those who might be having a harder time with it
- I am thankful for the pizza delivery guy
- and the mailman
- and that really nice lady who gives me my coffee at McDonald’s in the mornings because her smile brightens my day
- and for Thor’s teachers, who are so good to him
- but most of all, I am thankful for my mom, my husband, my son, my in-laws, my dad and his wife, my aunts and uncles, and cousins, my friend-family, and my friends. All the things in the world don’t match up to my people.
