What Are You Thankful For?

I was challenged by Freckles to participate in posting what I'm thankful for this month and I've just never had time for the daily posts, but on this day... the day we celebrate being thankful... I will list a few.

1. At this moment... I am happy that Thanksgiving dinner is almost done.
2. Life... is full of twists and turns but I'm thankful I'm alive to live it.
3. Friends... How many of us have them?
4. Now that we've found love what are we gonna do with it? :)
7. Encouragement... Please see my Sunday posts. Thankful to have this platform to share.
9. Gratitude... I am grateful the God blessed me with a career that challenges me and that I enjoy.
10. Gifts... I gave a friend a bottle of Be Delicious because that's what she wanted.

Hopefully I can finish the list before the month is through. Check back. :)
