Thankful Thursday

Posted on by Sandee

It’s Thankful Thursday hosted by Brian of Brian’s Home. He wants us to post what we’re thankful for.

I think it’s a good thing to do each week. Focus on the positive things in our lives.

Make sure you link up to the Blog Hop at Brian’s Home and get the code to put on your blog. Then visit all the participants.

I’m thankful hubby and I have made it through another year together. Tomorrow we can start a new year. A clean slate with many possibilities.

I’m thankful for our health. I hope the new year brings continued good health.

I’m thankful for our home. Some folks live in a house and we are fortunate to live in a home. There is a big difference.

I’m thankful hubby and I have cruising plans for 2021. Much of our 2020 plans were cancelled. We hope we can resume our usual cruises next year.

I’m thankful for all the new blogging buddies I’ve met this year. My blogging buddies are such a blessing.

What are you thankful for today?

    It may sound strange because I’m always saying I wish I could stay home but I am thankful for my job. Not only that I have a job to go to that pays me enough that I can support myself but that I have a place to go and people who feel like family after working with them 23 years.

      Working is a good thing. Taking care of yourself is a good thing too. You’ll know when it’s time to retire. 🙂

    I am thankful for more than I can write about, but health instantly comes to mind. Mine, my children’s, and my grandchildren’s. We are very fortunate and blessed. Have a happy new year!

Stevens lives in Central Maine with her husband on their 37-acre farmstead where she enjoys writing, gardening, walking and reveling in the beauty of nature.

Stevens’s children’s activity book, THE TANGRAM ZOO and WORD PUZZLES TOO! was first published in 1997 by Windswept House Publishing, Mt.

    I am thankful that our home is big enough, that The Hubby and I can spend hours apart from each other.
    Sure, I love him like crazy, but alone time is important too!
    Happy New Year!

      We have the same kind of home. Hubby always says he’ll be around. I rarely know where he is until it’s time to come together to read before dinner. 🙂

    Mom, Dad and Auntie had to cancel their travel plans, too, but maybe they can go somewhere not quite so distant in 2021, purrferably somewhere that doesn’t require them to get on a plane. Purr purr purr.
