Adornments by Lynn

One of the fellow members of the Blogjolt group has a regular feature she blogs about each week. Her name is Jamie and her blog is http://blondemomblog.com/

Apparently, she has been posting a Thankful Thursday item for a while now and I truly love the idea! Here’s her latest one, so you can see what I mean.

Since the way to happiness and prosperity is to start with an attitude of thankfulness, I am going to blog today about the things for which I am thankful.  Here goes (stream-of-consciousness-style)

I am thankful for:

• a good paying “day job” that allows me to live a comfortable lifestyle
• the ability to make and keep the most wonderful friends ever!!  (you all know who you are!)
• that Cindy’s surgery came off ok and that she’s recovering very quickly
• that my son John is nearly finished with college (whew! — more $$$)
• that both of my kids and both of my granddaughters are healthy and doing fine
• the most adorable granddaughters anyone could ever have!!
• my health and the health of my friends
• that it’s finally starting to become fall. I hate the 100 degree weather of the summer!
• that I’ve had several very cool adventures lately and have a couple more coming up
• a fabulous and fun “hobby”…that of making and designing jewelry
• that I have discovered how fun it is to blog
• three completely cute and cuddly “kitty boys”
• new ideas every day
• an occasional martini
• as my grandfather would have put it: that I’m young enough to enjoy some things, but old enough to know better! 
• an update to that: that I know better, but enjoy some things anyway! 
• that, for me anyway, 2006 has been a thousand times better than 2005!!!

I hope each of you take a few minutes to be thankful for the great things in your life today too!
