Thanksgiving is for Giving Thanks

Posted by: curiousillusion on: November 26, 2009

Freaking 11:15pm on day 26/30 of NaBloPoMo and I was thisclose to not posting today.  Not on purpose and not because I forgot, but because I was stuck at a Thanksgiving event and was waiting for it to be time to LEAVE!  Luckily I made it home with 45 minutes to spare.

So… to go along with what every other blog in the states must be doing… here is my list of what I am thankful for:

  • vacation days from work… I am always thankful for that!
  • for yummy Thanksgiving dinners (although sadly missing one of my favorite parts: sweet potato pie, complete with marshmallows).
  • that it is finally time to start listening to Christmas music (I loaded up the iPhone earlier today in anticipation).
  • for my cuddly snuggly kitty (well snuggly when she wants to be).
  • for chilly, not cold, weather… and the scarves, coats and hats that go with it.
  • for all of you, my wonderful friends that leave me sweet comments here.

Hope everyone had a fantastic day!

*title of the post is the title of a book I read to my students. Lol.

  • You cut it close but got your post in. Yeah! I will be glad when NaBloPoMo is done - I love updating my blog, but doing it everyday gets to be a bit of a strain.
  • Exactly - I think the pressure is when you HAVE to update every day. When it's by choice, it's not as big of a deal!
  • How's it going?

    You have a great blog here. I'm a first-time visitor but I'm liking what I see. I have a college blog myself which I hope to be a top resource for college kids looking to talk about some stuff. I was wondering if we could do a link exchange and help spread some traffic around between us.

    Please let me know if this is possible.

  • I love your list! I am thankful for my kitty, yummy food, Christmas music, and blog friends too :)
  • Hee hee!
  • You have a lot to be thankful for! So glad you had an overall good day (minus the pie). ;)
  • Thanks Beryl!
  • Nice list. Hope you had a good Thanksgiving :)

    By the way Mariah Carey has the all time best Christmas CD
  • Oooh I haven't heard her whole cd, I'll have to check it out, thanks!
  • Yay, Christmas music! My boss told me yesterday that we're not allowed to start playing it at work until December, but no one can stop me at home. :)
  • It's almost December anyway! rock on with your Christmas music!

    Sounds like a great event you attended: "...was waiting for it to be time to LEAVE!". :)
    Sweet potato pie!?!? I don't think I like the sound of that. And marshmallows... oh, you've done it now. You've just become very unattractive. :)
    I like chilly weather, some recovery there.
    I wonder if this counts as a sweet comment.
    No hint of thanksgiving over here, but I did get to have a yummy/huge meal when visiting my parents last night. So I'm thankful for that. :)
    Now I'm thankful it's Friday and Friday Arvo Drinkies are on in 9 minutes. :)
  • Well it was fun and then I got tired and wanted to go home. I'm a party pooper.
    Oooh sweet potato pie is yummy.
    And your comments are always sweet. :)
  • Right on! Glad you had a good day!
