Thankful Thursday


There are so many things to be thankful for and I like writing them down because it helps me to me more thankful more often.  Today I am thankful for:

beautiful spring weather
being healthy enough to go for a long walk every morning
a husband to walk with
a woods to walk in
seeing the first hummingbird yesterday
spending the week with our grandchildren in Texas last week
azaleas blooming in profusion
dogwood in the woods
chirping of the birds just before it starts to get light
my friend Susan who is helping me get back in to real estate again
my sister who is my best friend
a week today we'll get to see our 5 month old grandson who we haven't seen since Thanksgiving

What are you thankful for today?

  1. I'm thankful for all the things I DO have and trying not to lust for what I DON'T have, which is difficult sometimes when I see a gorgeous purse or shoes, sugar. But I'm a happy chick and a few new stones to put near my patio would definitely be a gratitude thing for me this week. ;-)

  12. Yikes, I would think it is a bad time to get back into real estate!! Lots to sell, but not many buying....but perhaps things will begin to change. It is terrible in our little town--many vacant houses! OOOOOPs this does not sound thankful! Ha!

    I am enjoying the Spring and walks too. Have a nice weekend.

  14. I am thankful for beautiful blogs to visit... for the sunshine, the green grass and the birds that chirp and for the rain it looks like we might get....as it is essential for us all.
    Blessings.

  16. Good morning, Rhondi -
    Of course you know at the top of my list today is the safe arrival of a beautiful - and healthy - new granddaughter this week. And friends like you and blogs like yours where I can come for a few minutes to visit and find a quiet place with a friend. Oh yes, for Spring and the blessings of health and happiness to enjoy it.

  17. On days like this with the temp reaching 105 and the heat index around 110 we are so very thankul or air conditioned vehicles and homes as well as the places of business..

    We are thankful or Trees that shade us in many areas like [at least part of] our yards

    We are [don't laugh] thankul for the SHAVED ICE CONES as we returned from the grocery store!

    Our lives are so full of incredible things...even on a BAD DAY we experience such bounty and blessings.

    God is Good!
