Thankful Thursday!

Nothing is more honorable than a grateful heart. - Seneca

As everyone knows my laptop and I had a bit of a falling out last week.  My week really didn't go up much from there but, as usual, I found things that made me feel grateful.

Hands - In my situation hands are awfully important. I was reminded of that this week (which I should be grateful for my hands every single moment of every single day) when I wasn't anywhere near my best.  These hands of mine (cue Jewel singing in the background) are used pretty strong and useful.  Oh and I wouldn't be able to type if it wasn't for my hands which means I wouldn't be able to entertain you.  It's always about you isn't it? :)

The American Flag - I smile every time I see it.  Enough said.

Iced Tea - For "Lent" I decided to give up soda.  You can all chuckle at this for your own various reasons if you want.  I won't drink tap water. I don't believe in God like you believe in God. I drink soda too many times a day. So this whole no soda thing is interesting. I can't say that I quit it entirely, but I am backing off.  The only reason I haven't quit it all together is because I didn't realize it was Lent until the night before!  Someone like me needs to ween off of soda, not quit it cold turkey.  This whole paragraph is about soda. I'm thankful for Soda instead.

Candles -  peaceful and smelly.  Can't really beat that.

Dave - the IT guy.  He fixed my laptop.  I am so overly grateful for this and him.  Not to mention he fixes whatever other thing is going wrong with my laptop/internet.

What are you thankful for?
