Thankful Thursday


Need a little gratitute adjustment?  I know I do!  Today I'm thankful for:
  1. The change of seasons:  It's revitalizing to see familiar scenery in a new way, almost like taking a vacation.  Around here, it's a beautiful time of year, even if it means winter is coming.
  2. Family time:  The last two weekends we've managed to squeeze in apple picking at a local orchard, a visit to Bear Mountain's Oktoberfest with my brother and his girls, and now we're planning a teen Halloween party.  Fun! 
  3. Modern technology:  Everything from washing machines and dishwashers to laptops and cell phones - they sure make life easier!
  4. Modern health improvements:  Last week I dodged a cold with the help of "cold remedy" tablets from CVS, and my back is feeling almost normal, thanks to modern PT.
  5. Cassie: I think it was Nora Ephron who said "When your children are teenagers, it's important to have a dog so that someone in the house is happy to see you."  Funny but true!
What's on your gratitude list today?
