Thankful Thursday – February 23, 2017

Some of you may or may not have noticed my absence of Thankful Thursday posts for a few weeks.  I’ve been working on a business project that has taken up almost all of my spare time which means I have way less time for many other things (such as blogging).  I just wanted to touch […]

Thankful Thursday – December 15, 2016

I’m really trying to be grateful this Thankful Thursday as I stress at the wintry weather we are having.  The temps do NOT make me happy and neither do the icy forecasts. 1.  Not much has happened since my last Thankful Thursday post.  I have only made it to half way being ready for Christmas.  […]

How is everyone on this brisk Thankful Thursday morning?  I had to scrape my car windows yesterday morning before heading in to work.  I’m NOT complaining – that’s better than fog.  I mean, at least it was a clear morning for driving. 1.  We turned our clocks back over the weekend and you already know […]

This Thankful Thursday post is short as half my week kind of went by in a blur.  I hope yours wasn’t so blurry. 1.  My father-in-law died so half the week was spent dealing with the tasks involved with all of that.  The meeting with the funeral director the day after went well.  A couple […]

Thankful Thursday – September 22, 2016

I don’t see the sun shining this Thankful Thursday.  But it’s still a great day – in the low 80’s and not hot at all.   Unfortunately, there’s been a few stressful moments over the past week. 1.  We’ve had some kind of infestation of spiders of sorts in our area.  I’m seeing a couple different […]

Whoosh!  Another Thankful Thursday week gone just like that!  Sure seems that way every first part of the month. 1.  Thank goodness my part-time job got changed one work day, or I would have had to work 7 days in a row between both jobs!   It was disappointing enough that I had to ‘labor’ on […]

Today is my first Thankful Thursday post of a new month.  I can’t believe we’ll be into the fall season in a few weeks 🙁  I know some people welcome the fall colors and the cooler temps, but I don’t.  I appreciate fall but to me it just means winter is coming.  And ya’ll know […]

Another week has flown by and it’s a hot Thankful Thursday again.   Why does it go so fast when it seems nothing too exciting has happened? 1.  I’ve been fighting a poor internet connection for over a month now (more frustrating than exciting!) and this week it finally seems to be ‘fixed’.  There were adjustments […]

What a gorgeous Thankful Thursday today is!  The sun is shining, the birds are chirping and there is a gentle breeze outside.  I love it! 1. Once in a while when I’m outside, I can hear the neighbor’s rooster crowing.  So I close my eyes and imagine I’m at my Mom’s in Hawaii.  It’s a […]

Thankful Thursday – April 28, 2016

I missed blogging last week’s Thankful Thursday post for two reasons.  I was so busy – doing the same thing that I’m doing this week with not much time for anything else – so I really had nothing much to post.  I had one day scheduled to work in between 2 sets of three days […]
