gratitude...Day ???

I was hoping to post each day through out the month sharing the things I'm grateful for. As you can see from the date on my last post, it didn't go quite as planned. I caught the nasty flu bug - which I'm still battling with. Josh seems to have caught it as well. We also went out of town for the holidays. So alas, I'm missing quite a few days. For a quick summary of those days - I was extremely grateful for Nyquil, Ibuprofen, Kleenex, my warm comfy bed, a safe drive down to Vegas and Tuscon, wonderful family, my down pillow, nail files, Williams and Sonoma, Pottery Barn catalogs, DVD players for the car, etc.

This morning, after getting the turkey in the oven, I was able to sit down and check out facebook. It's been over a week since I've last logged on, lots to catch up on. As I read all about my friends and their happenings, I felt an immediate gratitude for each of them. I am so grateful for my friends. Although I don't have the opportunity to see or talk to most of them frequently, they play an important part in my life. They have helped carry me through my ups and downs, most of the time not realizing what a strength they were for me.

Thank you friends for always being there! You have made a huge impact on me. I am truly blessed with amazing friends!

Happy Thanksgiving!
