I've been trying to be more aware of my blessings this month, and to be more grateful for all that I have. So this year I thought I'd do an A-to-Z gratitude post (though I cheated a bit with the letter X). Here are just a few of the many reasons I have to be grateful for this year:
A Alien tape! (because it really works.)
B Books, bubble baths, booster shots, and blogging buddies
C Chocolate and crossword puzzles
D Days off from work!
E Elephants and electricity.
F Family, friends, and freedom
G Game nights every month and garbage trucks
H Hawaii (one of my most favorite vacation spots)
I the Internet
J Jesus Christ and His atoning sacrifice
K Kind comments on all my blog posts from all of you...THANK YOU!
L Libraries!
M Music...all kinds.
N Nieces and Nephews
O Owls (and other birds)
P Peanuts and popcorn (my two favorite snacks)
Q Quilts and quiet time
R Road trips!
S Sleeping in. 😴
T Turkey, stuffing, mashed potatoes & gravy...YUM!
U Utah's scenic beauty from Arches to Zions National Parks
V Vacations!
W Wunderbrow long-lasting brow gel
X all the eXperiences in life, good and bad, that have helped shape me
Y Yoga
Z Zebra pens and zip-up hoodies (my favorite weekend wear)
Wishing you and your family a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving from across the pond, Lark! I love your list (am serious list freak) so much I agree with. Enjoy your day!
ReplyDeleteThank you. And I love making lists, too! :D
DeleteBooks, chocolate, elephants, game nights, this and so many other things to be thankful for. What a wonderful post, Lark. Thanks.
ReplyDeleteAnd have a very Happy Thanksgiving. 🦃
Thanks, Marianne! :D
DeleteWonderful sentiments. Happy Thanksgiving to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you!
DeleteMost of us are definitely grateful for D. I haven't heard of Alien tape before but any tape is useful. Books, definitely, blogging buddies, absolutely. I wish I can do sleeping in but at last, I seem to wake up early no matter the day. I think we all need vacations. Love zip-up hoodies. Everything's great on your list.
ReplyDeleteHave a lovely Thanksgiving day.
Thanks, Lissa! :D
DeleteLovely! Happy Thanksgiving to you!
ReplyDeleteThank you. :D
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving, Lark! Love that quote too!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Melody!
DeleteHappy Thanksgiving Lark and this A to Z list of things to be thankful for is an excellent idea which I will try too.
ReplyDeleteSome letters are definitely easier than others to do. I struggled with K, Q and X.
DeleteWhat a fun list! Happy Thanksgiving, Lark! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Ashley! I hope yours was lovely, too.
DeleteHappy thanksgiving. Regine
ReplyDeleteThank you, Regine! :D
DeleteAnd Happy Thanksgiving back at ya! It will be Pumpkin Pie for my P for today, and Apple for A.
ReplyDeletePumpkin pie is a yummy choice for P!
DeleteWhat a lovely post!! Happy Thanksgiving to you. (I had to go and google Alien tape, and now I need some)
ReplyDeleteAlien tape sticks anything any where. It's amazing!
DeleteGreat list! I'm thankful for many of these things as well. Mashed potatoes and gravy is one of my favorite Thanksgiving food. I'm grateful we had lots left over from yesterday :) I hope you had a great holiday!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Susan! Thanksgiving leftovers are so yummy. I love them, too.
DeleteLove it Lark! I think cheating on X is a must :)
ReplyDeleteUnless you're really thankful for X-rays or Xerox machines! ;D
DeleteAh this post just made me smile! It's so good to reflect on all the good (and yes, even not so good) in life. I hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving with your loved ones.
ReplyDeleteThank you, Iliana! :D
DeleteI'm not sure what alien tape is but I'm sure I'm going to want it, lol! I'll be off to figure out what it is next. Love your list! It's so important to remember the things we should be thankful for and do it daily! Not just on Thanksgiving. I hope you had a lovely Thanksgiving, Lark! :)
ReplyDeleteThanks, Rachel! (And alien tape sticks just about anything to any surface. It's amazing. )
DeleteLoved this! Happy Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteThanks, Kami! :D
DeleteWhat a wonderful post! I am of the mind that there is always, always something to be thankful for. :)
ReplyDeleteI agree. Even if I have to look really hard sometimes. :D
DeleteI hope you had a wonderful Thanksgiving! What a fantastic list - and now I need to go figure out what Alien tape is because I'm pretty sure I need it.
ReplyDeleteAlien tape is awesome and a must for any household!
