Giving thanks

The past few days have been pretty good, and I'm thankful for that. I feel much happier today than I did earlier in the week and I've been reflecting this morning on the good things in my life.

I'm thankful for the warm sun shining to ease the coolness of a beautiful fall day.

I'm thankful that everyone in the office is getting along today, and for the laughter and jokes filling the usual sullen silence.

I'm thankful for pumpkin Spice lattes to warm my insides.

I'm thankful for good friends at work to commiserate with.

And for new job opportunities from old friends, and that that friend thought of me.

I'm thankful for the blessings of a good attitude to brighten my day.

Most of all, I'm thankful for my family for always being there with support and love even on my worst days.

What are you thankful for this Thursday?

Thankful on Thursday

I've been reflecting on some things this week, and wanted to take some time to share some things in my life that I'm thankful for.

1. Visits with old friends

2. Blessings in disguise - I thought having to take 2 days off from work would be a disaster. Instead, I had a nice long 4 day weekend, two of the best days I've had in a long time, and extra time with my son & husband. I also got completely caught up with laundry and cleaning the house AND we saved almost a hundred dollars that we didn't have to pay the babysitter for 2 days. & work barely missed me.

3. Warm chocolate chip cookies

4. Good music that I can listen to again & again

5. A hubby that loves to cook for me :)

6. The love I feel from my son as he runs to hug my knees. This makes my heart melt every time.

7. The one co-worker that understands why our company makes me so crazy. & knows just how to calm me down when I'm at my most upset.

8. Drivers that pay attention (in this case, me). I almost got squashed by a bus driving to work this morning. If I wasn't paying attention I'd be history - so thankful that I was able to swerve onto the median & out of the way!

9. A clean kitchen

What are you thankful for today?
