Even if no one bothers to read my thankful list but me, I’ll have this to come back to. …and if anyone does stop by, I do hope my list might help you get started with your own thankful list.
…my faith because it has gotten me to places and situations that I never thought could be possible. 
…my family (even though they are quirky and EMBARRASSING) because they are there for me. It’s as simple as that.
…Gloria for being so patient and understanding with me.
…my wonderful furry babies because they greet/love me at all times of the day.
…my friends (near and far) that always want the best for me.
…having a home to live in.
…my hands and feet.
…having food to eat when I’m hungry.
…having the opportunity to travel and see new places.
…being able to laugh when I feel crummy.
…the seasons because it shows me that sometimes change can be good.
…my education because learning is priceless.
…rainy days because California is ALWAYS GOING THROUGH A DROUGHT.
…my connection to the internet because it allows me to connect to family and friends on a constant basis.
…clean water to drink.
…difficult times because it reminds me that I’m much stronger nowadays.
…warm showers because they make me smell good.
…living near the ocean because just seeing it calms me.
…my blog because I’ve gotten to know and meet some amazing and inspirational people.
…my beautiful and sparkly diamond. Oh, how I love it so.
…those who read what I write. I appreciate the time anyone takes to read my thoughts.
…scissors because every scrapbooker/crafter would go crazy without a pair!

…nice people because they brighten not only my day but everyone else’s day.
…being on such AWESOME design teams! Seriously, it’s an honor to be scrapbooking with them.

…being financially stable because it allows me to do this and that.
…highlighters because they seriously do wonders.
…mistakes because it makes for more learning opportunities.
…ignorant people because it’s great entertainment.
…for being able to breath fresh air.
…doctors and medicine.
…and everything else (I won’t write it all out because it’ll take me FOREVER) I am so THANKFUL for.
To those who celebrate Thanksgiving, hope you all have a wonderful and delightful holiday. …and always remember to be grateful for what you have and for what you don’t have.
Happy Thanksgiving,
sarah.

That’s a fantastic list you made. It’s true, we all have so many things to be thankful for but most of the time we forget about it.

It just occurred to me that I never looked at your ring, up close & personal. I am such a loser. I have seen the photos though & you are a VERY LUCKY GIRL…
AWESOME list. I want to do the same, but will have to see if I can finish it before tomorrow. I like your version of Gloria’s list, too! LOL! I’m VERY thankful that you & Gloria hopped on a plane to meet me in AZ. though. It needs to happen again!
Enjoy your day tomorrow!

Have you ever scrapped your thankful list? or
Each of your family members make a list of what you are thankful for about with each of them.
