Day three...more to say merci for!

Hi gratitude partners! Or sharers of gratitude? Do you prefer gratitudents? Haha...I'm definitely open to suggestions!

Looong day. Worked way into the evening tonight, but I am thankful to have the work! What else am I thankful for? Here goes...

1) Aforementioned WORK
2) To have a warm, safe, love-filled home to return to at the end of the day
3) That the 14 minute wait at the bus stop in the freezing cold didn't last 15 minutes!
4) Friends who make me laugh!
5) The Mentalist (ok, really thankful for Simon Baker...we don't always have to be proud of what we're thankful for, you know. ;)

Et toi? Tell me how filled with blessings your day was!

    4. That my precious little Sunny is sleeping quietly beside me instead of chewing something else up.
    5. That we have what we need and the means and hearts to help those who don't.

  5. 1. That it's one day closer to the day Gina comes home for Christmas.
    2. That it snowed last night and the schools are closed today.
