Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[TiggerTrigger]

My Desk- I got one of those electronic desks for Christmas so I can stand or sit. It's really helped keep me a bit more active during the day.

Stanley- Using the bright orange one and she's filled with caffeinated Crystal Light lemonade.

Disney Art- I treated myself to a sketch when I was at Downtown Disney this summer. It's hanging right next to me. I never see ones that I like, but this one is everything I ever wanted. It's angry (totally furious) Donald Duck. He's not colored in, except for a red patch on the top of his head to symbolize his mood.

My Disney resort mugs from back in the day, when each resort had a specifically themed mug. I have them for POP, AllStars, Coronado Springs, PO-FrenchQuarter, and Animal Kingdom Lodge, all purchased at each resort.

My refrigerator. I LOVE my fridge. We have been in this house 21 years and the fridge that came with it was old and broken. It was a side by side, made by RCA in the late early 1990s. Shelves were broken, drawers didn't work. We decided to replace it about 3 years ago, set a budget, and went to Lowe's. We went a little over our budget (by $300) but got a fridge on clearance that, new, would have been $1600 over our budget. It's a great fridge, and if we ever move, it's going with us!

Home-canned jams and produce. My son-in-law's grandmother does home canning thru the fall and every Christmas gives them a big box of jams, jellies, corn relish, dilly beans, etc. DD and SIL lived with us for 3 Christmases, and he grandmother gifted US some of her lovely products each year. We don't eat a lot of jam but when/if we want it, we have plenty. Looking at the lovely colors reminds me of the kindness in her heart.

Waving good morning

God's blessing to me of sight period. My roommate and the man next-door don't have that gift.

The small bottle of Aquafina on my bed is a reminder what a blessing clean, accessible, water is.

Two Walmart bags on my floor that contain packages my friend (and former resident here) W received. He asked me to keep them safe for him until he gets here to pick them up. His friendship is definitely something I am most grateful to God for.

The keys on this phone that allow me to keep in touch with my beloved Dad and all of you, too.

Happy Thursday, everyone

Evening all!

1. Bookshelf - while i love and appreciate my Kindle, I adore having physical copies of the books I love the most. I have a big bookcase full of them in my lounge, thats also complete with a few Lego sets, ornaments and ashes & keepsakes of my dearly departed cat Poppy. Its the item in my lounge that I feel most resembles me and my interests.

2. Electric blanket - while its not quite cold enough to plug it in yet, I am now using this most nights to keep a little warmer and really couldn't live without it.

3. Tablet - i have a Samsung tablet that I spend the majority of my time on when I'm at home, it's so much easier to browse the internet on it compared to using my phone or laptop. And fun to play games on and take away with me if needed.

It's a metal wall hanging that is a light fixture that has slots for light to beam

It's a relationship saver as there is no way to hang blinds for the newly installed vinyl window as a wall hutch is covering the stud

So it hangs on the window moulding and in 30 days summer arrives and we can take down the foam board that keeps out the heat and keeps it cool.... yes we installed insulated windows
