What are you thankful for today?
I am thankful today to be starting to feel better after being ill. I still have other family members who are sick, but I am able to do some laundry and was able to be up and dressed today. There will be no frugal accomplishments blog post today but there will be one for next…
Today marks the 200th day without rain in Las Vegas. Our normal rainfall here is 4 inches (10 centimeters) a year, and we’ve only received 2 inches (5 cm) this year. We had a very wet spring, thankfully, but a very dry winter is predicted. We’re also having record heat for this time of year!…
Today, I am grateful for the pleasure of a video phone call to friends in France. I am still amazed that this technology exists and that it doesn’t cost anything to call (so different from paying high prices per minute for a regular phone call!) plus I get to see everyone’s smiles and see how much their children…
Today, I’m thankful for the chance to garden year-round. What are you thankful for today?
Today, I am thankful for a warm bed to sleep in. What are you thankful for today?
Last night I went to bed and fell asleep right away, so I did not get my post up. Tonight’s post is for yesterday and today. I am thankful for social media. A lot is said about the negative sides of social media, but I have found there is a lot of good if we…
I am thankful for my two sisters and their presence in my life. One lives close by, the other does not, but we still have a close bond. We talk and text often, and see each other when we can. I am so glad to have them in my corner.
I’m so thankful for music, which adds so much to my life.
I am thankful that I could get–and afford to get–snow tires for my car today. It hasn’t snowed yet, but I am grateful that I will have some extra safety protection when I drive during the winter.
I am thankful to have friends and family who share. We all share our excesses with each other, and “specialty” items – like tools and kitchen items, so we don’t have to all own everything. I am so glad to be surrounded by people with the same generous mindset.
I am thankful that, unlike this time last year, I own only one home and am not trging to sell my old home several states away. I am also thankful for the terrific real estate agents that helped me buy this house and the absolute gem of an agent who sold my old house.
Nov. 17–I am thankful that my daughter is the happiest person in the world and spreads so much joy to the people around her. She is 43 and mild to moderately developmentally disabled. She lives with us for half of every week.
I am joining with my whole town (so it seems from facebook!) that in the horrible fire that destroyed half a block of businesses downtown yesterday, no one was hurt, fire fighters from around the county came to assist, and the fire was put out without spreading farther than the original building complex.
I am thankful for the well trained first responders, for engineers who study fire and buildings and determine the safest ways to build, for equipment like smoke detectors and fire extinguishers for our homes, and for pumps and lift trucks and helmets and all the things fire fighters use.
And I am thankful for those who can console and provide hope in times of tragedy.
I am thankful that we have freedom of worship in this country and can attend the church of our choice.
I am thankful I am almost done Christmas shopping for this year!!! Only 2 gift left to buy. I know what I need to get. I’m watching for a good sale. Whoohoo!!!!
I am thankful we are all healthy!
I am thankful that, at this point, my chronic pain is manageable. I work with a woman who’s pain is not even close to being managed and it makes me sad for her.
I am thankful for extra to be able to help others.
I am thankful for the time to meditate today.
