Thirty Days of Thanksgiving - Day 21

Remainder of the Bounty

Sunday and Day 21
As the holidays approach, the time changes and so do things to be done.  It is a strange time of year with anticipation of many things.  As in the autumn of the season, so it is with life at this time of year.

So I reflect for today on those things I am thankful for...
1)  rain replenishing the earth and the green that is replacing the brown
2)  the nip in the air and the fire in the fireplace
3)  anticipation of our children returning home from afar
4)  a coming week of unknowns
5)  a weekend that has come and gone

So, a new week ahead, I am thankful for many things, just need to remember to look around...

Alone and Still Standing

Ongoing reminders of things I am thankful for:

1)  time to walk through the vineyards and see their wonder of change
2)  taking lunch to my hubby while he worked at out yard (shop)
3)  wrapping a shoebox for "Operation Christmas Child"
4)  a wonderful rain storm that cleared the air
5)  one more day to be thankful for

Now it is your turn......

Thirty Days of Thanksgiving - Day 18

Add caption

I missed day 18, not that I wasn't present, but took care of business.  But when I intended to do my entry for the day, I tried to print off a picture and became so frustrated that I shut everything down and forgot my original intent.  This is happening way too often lately.

There were things to be thankful for, so I will finish this on that note.

1)  for a productive day at my desk (at work)  ;)
2)  an afternoon soy cappucino
3)  a fun loving chat with my daughter, laughing over the internet
4)  coming home
5)  having challenges that keep me learning

that's it for now, better late than never

Day 15!! of Thirty Days of Thanks

It's a Blue Bird Day

I find it hard to believe that I have hit the mid way point in the month.  It has been a bit of a challenge to blog every day.  Not that I don't have many things to be thankful for, but I am finding that I have to give it more thought than I realized.  It seems very easy to slip into the mundane every day life and not see what is right in front of us that is unique and special.
There are so many things going on with those around me, I find it difficult to focus on just one thing.  I am rambling.  So on with today's list of thanks.

1)  another day, you never know, so I am thankful for today and all it held.
2)  resources and people that help you understand when things get muddled
3)  a husband who is very easy to please with dinner and offers to help


that's it for today...hope your day was well with you...peace
