Good morning everyone. Today is going to be the day I get everything I want accomplished and everything will go as planned. :)
Be Thankful
Be thankful that you don't already have everything you desire,
If you did, what would there be to look forward to?
Be thankful when you don't know something
For it gives you the opportunity to learn.
Be thankful for each new challenge
Because it will build your strength and character.
Be thankful for your mistakes
They will teach you valuable lessons.
It is easy to be thankful for the good things.
A life of rich fulfillment comes to those who are
also thankful for the setbacks.
GRATITUDE can turn a negative into a positive.
Find a way to be thankful for your troubles
and they can become your blessings.

Good Morning,
Thanks for your post this morning Patty. It was something that I really needed this morning. I'm finding myself feeling very resentful these past few days and feeling that way it's very easy to set into a negative mindset. I'm trying to focus on the positive aspect of things but the past few days have been very challenging.
It's a gloomy looking day and another day of the muggies. The temperature over the next few days is supposed to be getting into the upper 80's. Way to warm for me at this time of year. Last week with the cooler weather my mind was all into fall types of meals and I have soup planned for this evening. Probably a little too warm for that menu but that's the way it's going to stay!
Literally had to drag myself out of bed this morning. By Thursday it's usually a struggle and today it was no exception. By the time I got down there I had just enough time for one of my walk tapes.
Turkey sausage soup on the menu for this evening and I wanted to put some bread into the bread machine but I think I'm lacking enough flour to do that.
Overflowing laundry baskets were a priority this morning. Two down one to go but of course there's still the stuff whirling in the washer and twirling in the dryer. At least I have laundry baskets to use!
Thankful for the made just right cup of coffee in the morning.
Thankful for the checkbook that balanced the first time around and for the computer program that helps me keep those bills paid and that checkbook balanced.
Thankful for the new person at work.
Thankful for my crazy dog.
Thankful for all of you who play a big part in helping me maintain any sanity I have left.
Off to scout out what I can wear without having to iron although I think that's a slim to none chance. And then off to do battle in the world of the legal eagles!
Hope everyone has a great day!
Susan
Good morning, ladies.
"Make Choices that bring you joy" cl-Patty
Nancy, you always sound chipper on Thankful Thursdays, even through whatever aches and pains you're feeling.

Susan, we've been dealing with what seems like more laundry for the past couple of weeks - no reason for the increase, it just seems like there's more.
Donna

Great post, Patty - reminder of the half-full, half-empty nature of life.
It's definitely Thankful Thursday for me.

Pumpkin pie pics...it's the most wonderful time of the year :o).
Yesterday at the first doc appt the receptionist came in for the day (we were first appt) with coffee and her breakfast, a large piece of pumpkin pie.

Yes, Nancy...be careful...the Actonel can make you ache. It is one of the side effects.
Keep on keeping on!
