Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[Summer2018]

Things I know:

How to cook. My mother taught me how to cook throughout my childhood. When I was 10, she went back to work full-time. I would come home from school, do my homework and start dinner so that when she walked in the door at 5:10pm, dinner was ready. Unfortunately there’s a few secret recipes that she didn’t share with me before she died.

How to teach young children. I put myself through college and grad school while working full-time. I am very grateful for my education.

How to sing. I’ve had voice training but it’s the natural gift that I am very thankful for.

Happy blessed Sunday everyone

Not including a blue sky when the sun is out - 3 blue things I’m grateful for……

My new fleece lined blue jeans to keep my legs warm this winter and especially during DD19’s cold early spring games

Our pool - one of my happy places

The forever reminders the color blue will give me of my mom (she is still alive). She loves blue, almost everything has to be blue. Whenever I see blue, I always think of my mom

Blue Things I am Thankful For

1. Blue Eyes: I love blue eyes. My middle daughter has clear light blue eyes that are stunning. Her eyes remind me of my paternal grandmother’s eyes.

2. Swimming pools: I love being around the beautiful pools on vacation. Very relaxing.

3. Ocean: I enjoy the sight, sound and smell of the ocean.

Blue things

I have had a blue house and kitchen, and have wonderful memories of each. We still use the blue and white Corelle dishes, so the happiness stays with me.

Blue skies and blue oceans and blue flowers. Things of nature that I love.

Blue jeans, my favorite clothes. I love being comfortable.

 

[WDWEPCOT]

Oh yes Blue Jeans !!! Great call Bobbi !!!
My mother hated them I remember as a kid we could NEVER wear them outside the house she thought they were horrible !! I love blue jeans

This is a lovely thread. It really makes you think.

I appreciate my own blue eyes which allow me to see: -

1) Blues and greens alongside each other in nature.



2) My warm, cosy, navy blue cardigan.

3) And blue peanut M&Ms! (Well, all the colors of those. )

 

[bobbiwoz]

@Tink-osophy I need some peanut M&Ms now! Excellent pick.

3 Blue Things:

1) the blue sky on a sunny day

2) the blue of the lake when we go "home" on vacation

3) and I think I used these before in another category (maybe two??) but they saved my feet today! - blue (with flowers) garden clogs I got last month:



I wore them this morning for an outdoor volunteer thing. It was raining pretty hard at times, and they kept my feet dry and happy.

 

[WDWEPCOT]

1. Stormy Days-I actually LOVE a good grey rainy day
2.Fluffy, slow falling, giant snowflake type of days
3.Fall days in the 55-60 degree range
*The first two are specifically for when I don't have to go anywhere and can just be in my house enjoying them-otherwise not as much of a fan lol

...I wish I had some in, too!
