Be thankful for what you've got

Today marks our yearly reminder to take a moment and be thankful for all the wonderful things of life, both large and small.

Though one day really isn't enough. Often we fail to appreciate things before they are gone, and it is a proven fact that people who recount the things they are grateful for every single day live happier lives.

Why not resolve to make Thanksgiving every day of the year?

To start, today I am grateful for:
My loving, supportive family.
This blog, the doors it has opened, and the wonderful people who I've met because of it.
My mind, which I need to stop underestimating.
My dog, PITA that she is.
Coffee, chocolate, and pasta. Would life be possible without them?

Happy Thanksgiving!

    I agree! It should be a daily thing. Maybe I'll try to make that one of my new years resolutions . . .

    I love your list--I definitely could not live without chocolate or pasta. Hope you thoroughly enjoyed your day of Thanks Lydia!

    Mmmm. I could not live without chocolate. Or peanut butter. I am thankful for those things as well. Hope your thanksgiving was magical, Lydia!

    Oh la la, I love the subtle primary color scheme you've got going on here--I always love to see that yellow skirt of yours!
