A Time to Be Thankful...

There is plenty for which to be thankful. Fortunately I am blessed to be able to say there are more reasons than I have time to type up here today, and for that I am grateful. I am quite aware that today there are many people who feel as though they have nothing to celebrate and give thanks. So for that reason I decided to give thanks in solitude today, to my Creator, in the early hours of Thanksgiving day.

So for the rest of the day, here on this blog I'd like permission to be flip. Here's another reason to be thankful. Brad Pitt. Not only is he dashing and fit, he is also generous, down to earth and a genuinely nice guy too. So I'll give thanks here for Brad Pitt today. Let's hope he comes back to Palm Springs again soon, it would be nice to see him again. Happy Thanksgiving all.


Now how about you? Finish this sentence: I'm thankful for...

i am thankful for god's grace in my life, for my relative health and that of my family, for the provision in times of need this year, for loving and faithful friends and their kindness. finally, in keeping with flippancy...i'm thankful for hugh jackman who is funny, smart, talented, an advocate for adoption, and perfectly delicious.

I am thankful for all of the people in my life who know me well and love me anyway and for the fact that I have learned that even though life can be really tough sometimes, there is always hope and things always turn around as long as you're willing to put in the work to help it along.

I am also thankful for hot IT guys.

I am thankful for my family, my friends (both in person and on the blog or Face book) and I am grateful for my God-given talents.

I hope you had a good Thanksgiving!

No matter how much I may grumble, rant and complain at times, I know, deep down inside, I have so very much to be thankful for that I couldn't possibly begin to list it all! Just waking up -at my age -is probably at the top of my list or it shares that spot with being so thankful for my family -even the blasted SIL too! LOl
And right now, I'm enjoying the peacefulness of a day that went quite well and everyone is asleep now which leaves me to read blogs, then hopefully work on my embroidery a bit before going to bed! And that, believe you me, is something really nice to have here!

I'm thankful that I'm able to play music.

I'm thankful that I still have a job, which means I don't yet have to feed myself through said music. :)

I'm thankful for having more in my life than I'm always aware of. And for people in my life who are more important to me than I ever let them know, but who still let me come back and see them. :)

Happy Holidays Rick.
