Day 21: Today I am thankful for . . .
So I'm sitting here, thinking hard: what am I grateful for today? Surely there is some blessing I have neglected to name this month. Then I realized that an attitude of thankfulness isn't dependent on specific things or events. Thankfulness comes from the heart. So today I am simply thankful for my life, warts and all! I am blessed beyond measure with the "things" that money cannot buy: love, family, friends, and faith.
I am grateful that most of the snow and crap has melted of my van. Traveling tomorrow to see family for Thanksgiving celebration. 55 people RSVPed. So, it should be a good time. Especially since my family didn't notice i had lost my first 30 lbs so i didn't tell them i had the surgery. Now that i have lost 105 lbs, i think the cat will be out of the bag as soon as i take my way to big winter coat off. Gonna be fun.
Thanks Vickie for doing this daily post. It is such a good reminder of the reason for the season.
