I'm Thankful For... Computers, Cameras, Modern Medicine, Food, Clothes, Consignment Sales, Pets, and Peace-n-Quiet

Days 15 through 22... Got lots to catch up on so this is gonna be short and sweet. I'm thankful for...
Computers
Almost a must have these days for communication and information and to help with...

Cameras
Don't know where I'd be without mine. I love documenting our family's life story. Some day they'll thank me although right now all I hear are groans when I whip it out.

Modern Medicine
This one's pretty self explanatory.

Food

I love food. These extra 30 pounds are testament to that. Wasn't sure what we were going to do about Thanksgiving dinner this year-perhaps peanut butter and jelly sandwiches-until we received gift cards in the mail that allowed us to purchase a turkey.

Clothes

They may not be the style or size I want, but at least I'm covered and warm. Some people aren't even that lucky.

Consignment Sales

You can find some of the cutest kids stuff there and at great prices.

Pets

You might call me crazy cat lady. I've had 15 cats in my life but they're my favorite. I did have a totally cute dog once. Her name was Taffy and she was the dumbest cocker spaniel you'll every meet. I like having an unconditional friend around.

Peace and Quiet

After a day of living out loud I'm glad to give my ears and mind a break and enjoy the silence.

What are you thankful for today?

To be completely honest, I can't remember everything I've done over the last week to give. I have spent a lot of time volunteering, singing, cleaning, baking, hosting, entertaining, etc. I've been giving my time and talent. What have you done to give today?
