Three Things...Gratitude Thread

[NannyBeBe]

1. sunshine -- feeling the warmth of the sun on a chilly day
2. my salvation in Jesus
3. solitude -- sometimes it's nice to sit alone and read a good book

Sundays are extra special to me. I look forward one day God-wiiling to be able to attend Sunday church in person.

Savings are a blessing indeed.

Stickers add faith and cheer to mail.

Awww - Snoopy!

Sleep

S’mores

I also am a Snoopy fan. I love the song, "If Just One Person," from, "Snoopy, the Musical."

Evening all,

I second WDWEPCOT on never wanting to hear the words sleet or snow!

S:
SUNSHINE
SUMMER
Saturday and Sunday - I get to be home

This. At this time of year summer and sunshine are things I miss dearly, and the weekends are the best time of the week as they mean no work!

I am grateful for my complete collection, in hardcover, of every Peanuts cartoon Charles Schulz ever published. CS’s nickname was Sparky, that’s an S word
Snoopy
Schroeder (we had piano in common)
Sally (loved her voice in the Christmas special)
And poor Shermy, who disappeared after a few years

Evening all,

I second WDWEPCOT on never wanting to hear the words sleet or snow!

That makes 3 of us!!

My lovely, wonderful DD, Sarah. She is the light of my life, my favorite travel buddy, and my nearest, dearest friend.

Soup. It's finally soup season!! We love soup here, and I usually make a pot or two a week during the fall and winter.

Squash. Butternut squash is one of my favorite vegetables but DD and DH are not huge fans, so we usually only have it once or twice a year. Happily, one of those times is this week!!

HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!

T- This Thread, which "talks me down" many days.

H- Hair. After bariatric surgery and DH's horrifying knee surgery experience 9 years ago, I lost almost all my hair. It's grown back now, although not as thick and curly as it was, and I can't get it to grow past my shoulders. Still... it's there!

A- Artists- dancers, singers, painters, etc. I have zero artistic talent but appreciate what these talented people bring to my life.

N- New England. As much as I hate the snow and ice that winter brings, I can't imagine living someplace without 4 distinct seasons (tried it in CA for a few years). I love the 6 states that make up New England, the weather, the fall leaves, the food, the differences, the history, the beaches, the mountains, the cities and wilderness... Boston, you're my home!

K- Koalas. Not really the first thing that comes to mind for K, but we watched a documentary yesterday and the Koalas were really cute! Also my Kitchen, which is going to get a real work-out this weekend, but so thankful to have new appliances in there to make the work easier.

S- all the "S" things from earlier in the week, plus Show days for my DD's ballet company. I LOVE putting on productions, working in the wings, and making the magic happen!

T - time - I’m thankful for time - I often feel like I never have enough of it and sometimes I feel like I have too much of it but I’m thankful when I have time that I can just sit and relax to make up for all the time that I never had time to sit and relax it goes by way too fast I’ll tell you that much

H - health I don’t have the greatest but I am far from the worst so I’m very thankful for what I do have an ability to be able to improve some of the things that are wrong and still be able to function with some of the things that are wrong

A - adaptable - I’m not the best at changing but I’m thankful that I can learn to change into improve it may take me a while to get there but I at least have a willing desire to work on it

N - neighbors I’m very grateful for my neighbors I have very nice neighbors kind caring and generous I could not ask for better neighbors I’m very blessed

K - kitty cats - I’ve always thought to myself as a dog person but having had kids that love cats I’ve become a dog and cat person I’m very grateful for my cats they have taught me a lot I love my kitties

S - sand (again) I just love being on beaches they’re just so relaxing to me when you get to lay on a nice warm beach and stare out at the ocean it’s just so relaxing I’d like to be there right now since it’s only 30° here right now I’d be very grateful if I was on a nice warm beach

T- time - greatful for another day of life and time with my family
H- hugs - especially from DH- they warm the

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone with a hug. I do give God thanks for each of you who keep this kind daily thread going. Extra appreciation dear PollyannaMom.

T is for this moment of life which is to me a blessed gift from God.

H is for honesty, humbleness, humility, three important qualities to me and graces I pray to live. As a bonus, hunny

A is for my kind regular morning CNA

N is for the New Testament, neighbors indeed, neighborhoods including of faith, and newspapers that my Dad enjoys reading.

K is for kindness plain and simple and kids!

S, Amen to my Salvation in Jesus. Sunshine, stickers, and scrapbooks of happy memories and God willing to come, too. Plus, a simple smile which can be both life-changing and life-saving.

Happy Thanksgiving, @flyingdumbo127. Thank you for the recent snail-mail; I especially loved the Pooh liner of the envelope. With all you have on your plate, I so appreciate that you keep me in your thoughts! Happy Thanksgiving to you and your dad!

 

[flyingdumbo127]

You are so welcome dear, Lee and thank you, my friend.

Evening and Happy Thanksgiving to all of you in the States!

T = Toastie Maker - one of my favourite things to make a quick, easy and tasty lunch especially when working from home
H = Holidays - or vacations for my American friends! Something I always look forward to and usually always have to have one in the works.
A = Air Fryer - another beloved kitchen appliance that makes cooking so much easier
N = Nespresso Machine - gives me my daily coffee fix and let's me make my gingerbread or chai lattes
K = Kitties/Cats - another vote for cats, who have always been my favourite animal. Today i adopted a pair of 2ish year old boys who I think are going to be trouble!
S = Sweet Food - bit of a vague catch all but I have a sweet tooth and love anything sweet whether chocolate, sweets, biscuits, desserts etc
