ReplyDeleteWell, I'm pretty basic these days - I simply thankful for a job so I can put food on my table this Thanksgiving as well as keep a roof over our heads. I know so many working in other state agencies who are working in fear, and I am grateful for a position where not only I feel secure in these tumultuous times, but also valued and respected. I am very lucky.
ReplyDeleteI am most thankful for my family. I too have a husband who is such a help and blessing. I would go crazy without all he does for me and the rest of us.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to yesterday's winner.

I am thankful for my family, who I miss so much because for the first time in over 10 years (since college) I have no family for Thanksgiving. It's alot harder than I thought emotionally. I have been on the phone with my sister all day. Looking at ads together, getting cooking advice, or just talking. You really don't know what you got until its gone.
ReplyDeleteI am most thankful for my healthy family and friends.
ReplyDeleteCongrats to the winner!

I am thankful for a wonderful loving family. -Marla#3291
ReplyDeleteI'm so grateful for so many things! First of all to have an attitude of gratitude (that didn't sound humble, did it?? oops!); to live in a free country to worship God freely--I won't take that for granted; that my husband is home with us, not serving our free country; so thankful for all the troops sacrficing for our country's freedom and their families they left behind that are missing them; family members that are generous and gracious when they don't have to be; coffee; healthy family; friends; shelter.
ReplyDeleteI have many things to be thankful for (after all my blog is titled Blessed Beyond Measure.) But, I think this year I am thankful to have my mom. She is a survivor, a Breast cancer survivor!! She has 22 more Radiation treatments to go- but God has touched her and she is going to be fine!! (Oh and she looks so cute with the peach fuzz that is just starting to grow back in on her head!!)She is so amazing, a couple of weeks ago after church she went to sing all by herself at the local Nursing home.
