  1. Personally_Political – Hi, I am Victoria. As well as being the author of this blog (duh), I have recently finished my degree in PPE at Swansea University. In my free time, I like to read, go on runs and paint (not that I'm much good at any of these). I also love a drink, I love buying new clothes and yes, I spend rather too much time scrolling through TikTok. I have had this blog since before lockdown, and I am amazed at how much it has grown in this time. My purpose was to create posts that I am passionate about and gain experience writing about different topics. As well, it gave me something to do over lockdown. Admittedly, I am much less active on here now compared to in the past. Nevertheless, I hope to continue to create posts here whenever I can. The topics on this blog will vary. Although mainly the blog will cover the more personal and emotional side of politics, social issues and trends that I find interesting enough to write about. Finally, I would love the opportunity to collaborate. Therefore, if share the same interests as me, then please do not hesitate to get in touch! My email is vickyyrose002@gmail.com Likewise, I would love to have the opportunity to write for you, so again, please get in touch :)

    Yep, all good things to be thankful for. I’ll be thankful if my comment will go through today. I tried to connect to Facebook yesterday and it wouldn’t work, tried again with google and got an error. I’ll try again another way today. Fingers crossed

    Eyesight is something to definitely be thankful for. Gramma has an eye disease for which there is no cure and it is very hard to watch her lose her sight. We think going deaf would be the better option. We are always thankful for our home and all the opportunities we have.

      When we get older we do lose many of our senses. I’m thankful that most of mine are working just fine. 🙂

      Most of us do have many things to be thankful for. We just need to look around us. They are everywhere. 🙂

    Every night before I go to sleep I pray to God thanking him to give me my family, friends, and my blogger friends. I give thanks to all those to help me go through life and support me with all the many difficulties that are there in our world. Strength, Love, Respect and Belief are the many things that I give thanks today. Enjoy your day Sandee.

      Thank you so much. When you age you start losing many of your senses. My eyes aren’t as good and neither is my hearing. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Yes they are and we appreciate them more as we get older. Big healing hugs. 🙂

      I thought so too and when you get older you appreciate your senses far more. You have a wonderful Thursday too. 🙂

      We do indeed and this virus has made me rethink many things that I did take for granted. 🙂

  9. The OP Pack says:

    Beautiful reasons to be thankful. We are thankful every day here that my Dad continue to have his sight in at least one of his eyes. The senses may seem like little things to be thankful for, but oh no, they are HUGELY important.

      I’m looking at 70 and my senses aren’t as good as they used to be. I took them for granted for years. No longer. 🙂

  10. Cecilia Upchurch says:

    Hi Sandee so very much to be thankful for each day…our eyes open.
    In particular today I’m thankful my 2nd post op with the periodontist went well. Stitches out, and I’m now able to chew on the right side.
    Hugs Cecilia

      Sandee says:

      I remember when the stitches came out too. It was wonderful. Chewing is a wonderful thing. Hugs back. 🙂

    I am really late. But I was working on a birthday post at my Tata’s Cottage blog and Thankful Thursday at my annesphamily blog. It has been a day since I am in charge of the canine and feline crew. The kids went to Michigan for the twin bro/sis birthday! It has been quite a day but Nick is off on Friday and Saturday so I am a happy camper. He can tend to the pets tomorrow. HaHaHa
    I love how you created your thankful post. Very cool and very excellent things to be thankful for. Have a terrific weekend sweet friend. HUGS across the miles XO

      I hear you. My list is long too, but I decided to only do two. Scritches to Luke. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Me too, but I sure appreciate all my senses. Some aren’t as good as they used to be, but I still have them. 🙂

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      Some are and some aren’t, but my point was taste as in one of my senses. 🙂

    Very nice! I get two things off the image of the rose, seeing as an ear and eye are shown close-up. I’m guessing you’re grateful as me for a decent sense of smell. 🙂 My favorite is probably the scent of carnations. Yum. Be well and enjoy your day, my dear.

    • Sandee – California – Home of Awww Mondays, Happy Tuesday, and Wordless Wednesday.
      Sandee says:

      And taste. You nailed it. I was going for my senses, but then I thought about how thankful I am for having a home. I live in California and the homeless population is everywhere. 🙂
