Happy Thanksgiving!

I wanted to take a few moments this Thanksgiving day and recall all the things in my life for which I am truly thankful. What better way to remember the true reason for gathering with family and enjoying a great meal.

I am thankful for:

my little girl, the joy of my life.

my husband, the provider and sustainer of the family

my parents, my backbone

my mother and father in law, the best I could hope for.

my friends, I have the best ones, truly I do.

my extended family members, stretched from Florida to Mississippi

my daughter's birthfamily, for the greatest gift we have ever received.

my dogs, there are no two sweeter dogs in the world.

my home, comfortable and cozy and more than I could have ever wished.

On the sillier note,

I am thankful for:

Starbucks Cinnamon Apple Cider
my laptop
my camera
Mr. Clean eraser - it has saved my walls more than once!
Sephora - my new favorite store
my smell good Yankee candles, they make the house feel so warm and cozy
daytime tv - cause the soaps make my life seem calm!
my eighties music cd's...take me back, over and over again
friends who do crazy things
ON DEMAND from our cable company
finding a good book I thought I had lost, and re-reading it.
Candy corn
having a tv in my bathroom
decorating for the holidays with my family
shopping while my daughter is at school
the laughter of my friends, bringing sunshine to rainy days.
the slice of Lane cake I just KNOW I am going to enjoy really soon...
and I could go on and on...

I am thankful and blessed by so much this year. I hope you and your family have a very Happy Thanksgiving. Enjoy the warmth of the holiday, with those you love.

Living Happily In the Moment!
