8 Thankful Things

I stole this idea from somebody else's blog (I do that a lot, it seems!), but I really liked the sentiment. And it goes with "Thankful Thursday" which I borrowed from another blogging friend.

Eight Thankful Things

• My dogs, who keep me sane and balanced
• My job, which I am constantly learning at, and I enjoy a lot
• My wonderful friends - there are several in particular that come to mind, that I lean on on a regular basis, and that mean the world to me
• My family - especially my parents, who I'm very close to and lucky to have a good relationship with
• My computer, which keeps me connected to the world, and to my many friends that live far, far away
• The fact that I make good enough money to be able to buy what I need, and often what I want, without worrying about how to make ends meet
• The Northern Lights, which are so spectacular and beautiful to look at, especially on a crisp, clear, cool winter night
• My ability as a writer - it might not seem like much to those that read my blog (and can't imagine being forced to read my writing on a daily basis), but I'm grateful for this God-given skill

Thanks for the idea, my blogger friend . . . I enjoyed thinking about the things I am most thankful for today!
