Thankful
For all these things, I Am Thankful!
A husband that still loves me enough to keep me, sons that are awesome and will still watch a movie and eat popcorn with me, a dog that makes me walk everyday, family that I can call friends, friends that are like family, exceptional neighbors, a house to come home to, a reliable car (thanks to my husband!), food on the table, a huge backyard, my Tinkerbell coffee cup, heat when I need it, clients that still hire me, the sun, the moon, the stars, the wind, the rain, the laughter of friends around the table, light at the flick of a switch, Highlander Grogg coffee, words to say, a big window in my office, lots of pixels, the parking garage lady, the nurses and aides at St. Leonard’s, my sister that I talk to everyday, the ladies at the bank, water, my brother that sends me texts in the middle of the night for no apparent reason, popcorn, a great friend that puts up with my dog, band kids that still keep in contact, my dad for saving everything, the newspaper, a beautiful sunset, summer, kind people, new friends, pumpkins, really great books, red, my mom for teaching me to cook, variations on a straight line, chocolate, sweaters, America, the young cashier at Kroger that laughs at my jokes, journals, my brother that shares everything, cell phones, Thoreau, my brother-in-law that keeps it real, wine, Sunday nights at El Toro, nieces that call/write me, homemade pizza, book club and non-book club, autumn, dogs, my sister-in-law that keeps her heart wide open, blue, friends that stay connected, friends that re-connect, foggy mornings, spring, the road less traveled, sunrises and the promise of a new day, Zits (the cartoon), Lake Michigan, the first snowfall, twinkling lights, bon appetit magazine and the friend who sends it, pedometers, winter, eyes that still connect to my brain, that connect to my finger that pushes the small button on the black box called a camera.
My life…thankful.
