Many of my friends are posting on their Facebook wall daily what they're thankful for. Great idea but I missed the band wagon. So I decided to put my 30 days of Thankfulness in one blog post. Plus, I'm scatter brained so I'm sure it'd end up being more like 28 days of Thankfulness since I'd probably repeat one or two without realizing it. Here we go!
Day 1: God. Wouldn't have any of the following without Him.
Day 2: Ryan. Next year, I get to marry best friend and the most amazing man a girl could ask for.
Day 3: Jeremy. The most wonderful son a mother could ask for. The sweet
boy who can't let you walk down to the mailbox without getting a hug.
Day 4: My Mother. She has been the biggest help to me and the best friend I could ever imagine.
Day 5: My brothers. It really is true that they become your friends when you get older! I would have totally disagreed with that statement when I was a kid but now I enjoy being around them!
Day 6: My Pop. I don't see him nearly enough and I hope he knows truly how much I care for him. Think I'll go call him.
Day 7: My precious nephew and niece, Joseph and Addie. A joy to be around and lot's of fun!
Day 8: A warm home especially with the snow last week!
Day 9: A vehicle. It may not be the nicest but it gets me where I need to be.
Day 10: Health. Even when we're sick with a cold or allergies, overall, we're still healthy. Those are just minor compared to what other folks have to deal with.
Day 11: My Mom-mom. I'm so blessed to still have my grandmother. She's a wonderful lady! Think I need to go make another phone call.
Day 12: Our sweet hen. And that she is still with us today after laying a double-yoker last week! Check this thing out!
Day 13: Jeremy's teacher. I'm thankful for all teachers, but especially Jeremy's teacher this year. He's connected with her and loves school now plus he's learning so much!
Day 14: People who enjoy my jewelry. It'd be awfully hard to sell anything if they didn't!
Day 15: Our gardens. We are still enjoying the abundance of potatoes, green beans, and corn from our garden this past summer.
Day 16: Daisy, the nanny goat. Our little weed eater who is full of personality.
Day 17: Max, the German Shepherd. Our fearless watch dog who will lick you to death if you get near! Unless you're a ground hog...then you better HIDE!
Day 18: A tractor. I can't imagine being able to farm without one. Unless we had a horse of course.
Day 19: Knowledge. Lot's of it useful, some of it not so much.
Day 20: Google. Yes, Google. Ever been in the middle of something and realize you have no clue what you're doing? Happens to me more than I'd like to admit. So for the knowledge that I lack, Google assists me in gaining it.
Day 21: Our roosters. They have given me a whole new appreciation for meat. There's something wonderful about knowing exactly where your food comes from.
Day 22: Coffee. The world would like me much less without it.
Day 23: The Blue Ridge Mountains. In my opinion, one of the most beautiful places in the US and I am fortunate enough to have grown up here.
Day 24: Appliances. I imagine my life would be much tougher without a washer and dryer, microwave, stove, or a toaster.
Day 25: Camera. So many memories and beautiful moments would be lost without one.
Day 26: Shoes. Without them, the rose bushes we battle on our property would be 100 times worse than they already are.
Day 27: Trees. Shade, warmth, and most important, air.
Day 28: Family. Not just immediate but all my awesome cousins, aunts, uncles, and soon-to-be in-laws.
Day 29: Military. I may not always agree with where our government sends them but I will ALWAYS support the men and women who serve our country. Thank you!
Day 30: My Life. My life in general. Everything I have is a blessing and I'm thankful for the way my life is.
