The Internets
When I was younger, my friends and I had to save money from our weekly allowances to buy music. It might take us two or three weeks to save up for an album, depending on our spending habits. No one had a collection of all the hits, so we would borrow from each other. I might loan my Martha Reeves album to a friend for the weekend who in turn would let me borrow their album by the Temptations or Al Green. And there were some albums (i.e., Marvin Gaye's What's Goin' On, Stevie Wonder's Songs In the Key of Life, and damn near anything by James Brown or Aretha) that you had to purchase because no one would let you borrow them--these albums were on the no-loan list. We really had a great system for listening to music outside of the radio, but it was nothing compared to being able to access music on the Internet ...
I'm thankful for the Internet and music is one of many reasons why. |
I'm grateful for modern medicine and old wives tales. Superstitions and facts. Volunteers and staff. Friends and strangers. Four Seasons Four Corners. Roses and wild flowers. Weeds and trees. Thee and me. :bunchflowers::bunchflowers::bunchflowers: :bunchflowers: :bunchflowers: |
I am thankful that, even though I do not know the reasoning at the time, that life guides me down the right direction even if it irks me. I.e Maybe moving isn't the right thing to do right now, and all this credit transfer mess is the Gods way of saying "oh no you don't. not right now".

Having forgotten my breakfast this morning, and not many places open at 4 am, I pulled into Burger King. As I pulled up an SUV was pulling off. I placed my order and pulled forward. The girl handed my bag out the window and said the lady before you paid for yours and said have a blessed day

Not having to go to Walmart on Black Friday....
I have to load some cash on a debit card to pay a bill and I thought it was the only place to do it...thankfully, there are alternatives :) |
I am thankful for my grandfather still being alive. He's in bad shape, but still alive. He's been the only steady male figure in my life, and the one who showed me how to fish.
I am thankful for my grandmother, holding onto the family's past. My mother never cared much for it, so without my grandmother holding on it would all be lost i'm really crossing my fingers that we will get this Christmas with them both, also. I am VERY thankful that the cats didn't break or ruin anything yesterday. and as always, I'm thankful for my friends. |

For family and understanding friends and my dog

Even though I do not have any family to be thankful for, I am so very thankful for my friends. I am thankful that I have enough and often more than enough, and I am so very thankful for my friend and companion, Sadie...I couldn't ask for a better dog.
I am extremely grateful for the Planet and all of the people who put in the talent and hours to keep the lights on. I have a difficult time during the holidays and knowing I can come here helps more than I can even say. Thank you. I am thankful to be alive and healthy and so very blessed by God. |

I am thankful for having good things to pull close in hard times. I am thankful for the strength of character that was instilled in me as a child and for my mothers insistance that we didnt need things to be happy.
Right now, at the holidays, while my life is turned upside down, I am thankful that I can see all the good in my life. I have my children and parents who love me undconditionally every day. I have enough for my bills, if not for anything else. There is always food on my table. |
I am thankful for those who love me...in my various stages of incompletion and imperfection.
:rrose: |
A therapy session that is about to happen
|
...
people who by being who they are, make me smile.

I'm thankful to see moments of unity like this.
|
my sanity...which I grip ever so tightly to....on a daily basis
|
thankful for just about everything thrown my way. i have been reading stories about the "rudeness" of people. road rage, just all around unpleasant behavior and personally, i find the opposite to be happening.
seems to me, more people are smiling, more people are being respectful of your boundaries etc.... hope this is true for all of you as well. thankful for: *my good health *my daughter who is growing up to make a difference *the last year of my dads life where my eyes were truly open to appreciate his greatness damn near everything ..... *big smiles |
Thankful to work at a company that picks a day (today) to give each employee $50.00. They insist that we go out for a couple hours and buy something for ourselves, then come back and have sandwiches while we "show and tell" what we've bought. We're asked not to spend it on anyone else nor for anything else—just ourselves. One year I bought some pink Converse shoes (they were so cute). Another year I used it toward a subscription to Lumosity. One of my buddies bought a wonder bra one year—that turned some heads.
I won't be able to attend today's festivities because I've got work up to my eyeballs, but I'm really grateful to work here. I work for and with people who care about each other, society, the environment ... they care. This is one of the many reasons I don't mind coming in early, staying late or working on weekends. Fortunately, I don't have to hustle like this most of the year. Lucky me. |
My "Secret Santa's."
8 people (that I know of) got together and surprised me to tears, at work the other day. I do believe the person ( who spearheaded the surprise) stole my heart in a really big way. |

Just last night when I was slipping into a hot bubble bath, I was thinking how much I have been thankful for this year.
The holidays are hard on me to be away from my son...but I have a huge list of blessings, gifts and easy-to-take-for-granted things that make me very proud and thankful. A peaceful, safe, secure, drama free home that's in a beautiful part of the country, surrounded by nature... My "prayer garden" where I can find my zen and leave little momentos of loved ones and candles... My sweet, loving pets... My son... My two best friends that understand and accept me more than anyone else ... My car (named The Beast) that's paid for and has never failed me, and is currently my transport to medical services and my favorite country get-aways.... A filled-to-the-brim pantry and 2 freezers, including bounty from the garden and local farms....lots of homecooked meals... Electric and plenty of hot water for bubble baths...and my own laundry room so there's no need for trips to the laundrymat. Chosen family.... (Finally) access to medical care and an AMAZING medical team... The many positive opportunities I have been given this year... My little antique shop... Caring, supportive friends that never turn their back... An opportunity to learn what I want and need in a relationship and the ability to stand up for myself...knowing I am safe, empowered, confident and encouraged to make the right decisions for a healthy life.... Warm, clean clothes and (NICE) memory foam shoes that help me walk without pain... Enough farmland to raise chickens for chemical free eggs and a large garden.. The love and acknowledgment that was so generously gifted to me.... Being given an opportunity to do what I want (career wise) and taking time to heal and get answers to medical concerns.... My very fun trip to the Gem Mine and the memories.... And as I told my doctor today...I feel safe here, that makes a difference in caring for myself... The list goes on... I've had a challenging year (medically and career wise) but I have certainly " come out on top", learned from my mistakes, made several good, life confirming decisions, been given many gifts that I don't take for granted and have stuck to my Affirmation that I wrote back in February. I forgot to add...several trips to the beach and mountains for retreats. And for the first time in over 2 years, I was able to walk long distances on the beach without pain and without help, thanks to my new doctor. |
...Instinct.

I'm thankful that today was Daddy's last radiation treatment
I'm thankful that he didn't have to have a feeding tube I'm thankful that he has only lost a little bit of hair in the back, and though his neck is red and dry and itchy it's not as bad as I thought it would be. I'm thankful that he has had only minimal discomfort in his mouth and throat I'm thankful that he has a high tolerance for pain and has basically been a good patient. I'm thankful Mom was able to take care of him I'm thankful that God sent us all an angel in her, she takes a lickin and keeps on tickin |
