Thankful Thursday

Today I am thankful for:

• The cutest little skunk (and his mom!) that ever came trick or treating at my house!


• The beautiful sunrise this morning, framed by whiter than white cirrus clouds


• The smell of wood smoke hanging in the air on a cold morning. It reminds me of pulling into my parent’s country home many years ago.


• Crockpot stew, a fresh salad, and homemade biscuits for dinner


• My very soft, fluffy socks with the non-skid disks on the bottom


• A cup of chamomile tea late in the evening


• Making plans for Thanksgiving dinner


• The calm that takes over when I pet my fat, purring cat


• Being able to go for walks on my lunch hour and not worry about getting too hot


• Carved pumpkins with a candle burning inside
