Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[slo]

Good Morning!

Quickie Answers….
I’m narrowing it down to items in my house.

#1 - My Christmas Trees - I love them!

#2 - The forest next to my house with newly fallen snow stuck to it - beautiful & peaceful

#3 - The artwork my girls made - they are the most beautiful pieces of artwork to me (I’m looking at Thanksgiving items they made as I type this).

Definitely nature!! I love being out in nature and taking photos of the natural beauty all around us

Sparkly things - it's fun to wear a little touch of bling like earrings

Fancy desserts (I've been watching too many holiday baking shows )

 

[WDWEPCOT]

Ooh SLO watch out you said a nasty word ! I’d hate for you to get dinged points by the Mods ❄

The good hearted people still out there in the world
Nature-when it's left alone to be what it's supposed to be
I love a night sky full of stars

God! Always first and foremost. His love also makes even me new. A favorite choir song of mine was Beautiful Things. A reminder that for me His mercies are new each morning. He uses even me for His good purpose. There is forever hope.

Puppies and new babies for sure.
Definitely a starry night sky, 1420Elixismc along with kindhearted people, like YOU

I'll go with:

1. Sunrises/sunsets - one of my friends posts a picture almost every day of the sunrise over the lake by her house. It is so pretty!

2. Beaches

3. Babies

 

[WDWEPCOT]

Beaches !!!

Sorry - thought I posted this a couple hours ago...



Today's Topic (Wed, 11/15) - 3 things you're grateful for in any way related to writing

 

[WDWEPCOT]

The fact that I know how to cursive write and so do both of my kids I find it sad that the schools have stopped teaching it

I still write letters and Christmas cards and Thank You notes - I also find that sad that most people don’t do that anymore it’s just not the same getting a text versus getting a handwritten card or a note or letter
I don’t believe you and People I won’t say all but most are not taught this anymore it’s really kind of sad with that being said the mail service really needs to step up their game they are horrible they take entirely too long and they lose way too much mayo be grateful if they would step up their game

I am grateful that people still write because they write books and I love to read and I can’t imagine the world without books

 

[flyingdumbo127]

I pray to be going forward as called by God to help put together a Christian nonfiction book of short stories and experiences all for His glory. I thank some of you for having written for this and helping me in other ways with it. Should anyone want more information, PM me please.

Holy Bible is indeed a refuge always. I also daily enjoy my devotional.
Books in general of course
Absolutely, a 100% handwritten or even type written, as I often do along with a handwritten note, letters and cards!

 

[1420Elexismc]

I used to write these little short stories when I was younger-I found it was a good outlet back then
My papermate profile pens-I have to write a lot of things down and love how they write
I am thankful for any time I get to really sit down and read-so I am grateful for writers in general

1. Old recipes I have from family members now gone, many of them in the person’s own writing.
2. Books—I love to read
3. Pretty stationary.

 

[PollyannaMom]

Another vote for fun pens - I used to have quite a selection when I was substitute teaching,

And stationery - back when letter-whiting was more popular, I use to enjoy making my own using rubber stamps.

Also seconding authors - I love reading a good book!

Today's Topic (Thurs, 11/16) - 3 fast things you're grateful for

 

[WDWEPCOT]

McDonalds - but I will say I don’t think it’s as good as it used to be
Chick-fil-A - I do love their chicken sandwiches
Raising Canes - seriously I could drink that sauce by the gallon

 

[PollyannaMom]

Airplanes - I'm grateful not to have spend 2 days in the car to get to my vacation

Express lines at the grocery store when you only have a couple of items

Being able to fast-forward commercials when I watch TV

 

[WDWEPCOT]

I read that wrong !!

Airplanes - I hate road trips I want to hurry up and get there so I can enjoy myself

Horses - love horse racing !!

Self check out - it’s usually short lines that you can get out really quick

 

[PollyannaMom]

I read that wrong !!

Not necessarily! - fast food counts. (It was the inspiration "holiday" after all!) And maybe you were hungry when you answered

 

[WDWEPCOT]

I’d drink that sauce right now

Good Morning!

I’d be grateful if my current head cold left fast

#1 - I’m grateful for Genie+ to get on rides fast - a lot of people hate on Genie+, but we like it

#2 - I’m also grateful for airplanes - it’s always amazing how it takes 20+ hours for us to drive to Florida, but only 3 hours to fly there

#3 - I’m grateful for microwaves - they are the best to heat up things fast.
