Thankful Thursday

Visit the home of Thankful Thursday at Sting My Heart.

* I'm thankful for freebies ... a 3lb. bag of honey tangerines from our neighbor and 47 mini candy canes from the health food store we shop (and they're organic to boot!).

* I'm thankful for toaster pastries finally being on sale after months of my oldest son begging for them (at $3.99 a box regular price ... no way!). We've all been feeling a bit deprived lately and a few boxes of these proved to be an uplifting treat.

* I'm thankful for hubby being on call for the last 7 days. It's never fun when it's his week, but the much needed $ from the extra OT will be wonderful on his next paycheck (in 2 weeks).

* I'm thankful for rain ... off and on showers over the course of several days. Our area has needed it badly.

* I'm thankful for postcards showing up in our mailbox on a regular basis. They're beautiful and taking us to places around the USA that we may never get to visit.

* I'm thankful that my latest round of eye swelling is over and I am able to wear my contacts again!

* I'm thankful for The LPM Blog ... oh how it brings a smile to my face and laughter up out of my belly.

* I'm thankful for silliness and hilarity with my boys. Yesterday ds1 and I collaborated on a story during lunch called "You Wouldn't Want To Be a Tangerine in __________'s Bowl: A Trip Through the Digestive System You'd Rather Not Take." You must understand that this silly title comes as inspiration from a series of books we've been enjoying this homeschool year. It felt so good to get all our worries out of my mind and act completely goofy with my children.

* I'm thankful for answered prayer ... getting to watch Wednesdays With Beth yesterday all by myself before the pitter patter of precious little feet came padding down the hallway.

* I'm thankful for a book I'm slowly working my way through right now being the encouragement I needed to start making note of all that I have to be thankful for. It is my hope that Thankful Thursdays will lead to a major improvement in my attitude.

* I'm thankful for baby steps that are taking place in two relationships that need to heal.

* I'm thankful for the exciting events that are unfolding concerning the land we own in GA.

Thanks for stopping by my page. Come back soon!
I love your TT list. It's regular, every-day things that we take for granted. I really enjoyed reading it.
Good luck on the GA farm! Hope it works out soon. You can't beat country life!

Sounds like that you and your son had a fun activity :) .

You know - I think that being thankful can change our attitude. Well, I know it is true for me :)
