Once again, I published yesterday’s post and instantly thought of more things I’m thankful for. Because even though I’m grumpy, impatient, and snarky sometimes, I’m truly blessed.
21. I’m thankful for our DVR. Again, reliance on technology. What did we do before it was invented? Use VCRs? Miss our favorite shows?
22. I’m thankful for my husband’s computer-repairing abilities. I know that when I’m about ready to throw my computer or printer or whatever out the window, I can text him at work and send out an SOS. Nine times out of ten, he’ll be able to talk me down from the ledge and fix my problem.
23. I’m thankful for digital cameras. I’m realizing that there’s an awful lot of technology on my list(s), but we live in the 21st Century and are spoiled rotten with its abundance and availability. So, I’m thankful that gone are the days when I go to the store and pick up a developed roll of film, only to discover that half of them are blurry or unrecognizable and that I’m out 10 bucks.
24. I’m thankful for my minivan. Yes, it’s a “mom car” and it’s literally FULL of car seats, but I have never once been stranded on the side of the road. I almost didn’t want to type that, because I’m going to be gripping the steering wheel next time I drive it, sure that I’ve jinxed myself, but as of now, I’ve never looked back at all those kids in their car seats and wondered how I’ll get them home.
25. I’m thankful for storage space. We have too much crap, and I’m so thankful that we have someplace to put it all (even if I have no idea where that is most of the time).
26. I’m thankful for the fabulous company that I work for…it’s THE most generous company in the industry, and my hostesses always walk away with TONS of free and half-priced jewelry!!
27. I’m thankful for grandparents and quality time they spend with our kids, when we, say, go to Red Lobster the day before Thanksgiving.
28. I’m thankful for holiday/seasonal foods and drinks….egg nog, coffee creamers with flavors like egg nog, pumpkin spice, and gingerbread, pumpkin bread/muffins/cookies, egg nog, pumpkin snack cakes.
29. I’m thankful for snack cakes. I know I said before that I was thankful for comfort foods, but I think snack cakes deserve their own number on the list.
30. I’m thankful that this is the last thing I’m going to say that I’m thankful for. I am a very lucky girl, and have a ton of things to be thankful for, but I can’t think of any more.
Happy Thanksgiving!
