I'm Thankful for Top Ten Tuesday (and For You!)


This week in the U.S., we will be celebrating Thanksgiving. Although the holiday's history is problematic, I still love the fact that we set aside a day to gather with family and friends and express gratitude for our blessings. My life is far from perfect, but I've been given so much that I can't count high enough to name all of my blessings. Please know that you are among them. Thank you for continuing to support my humble little blog. I appreciate every visit, every comment, every suggestion, and every reading rec. You make blogging fun! Whether or not you are celebrating Thanksgiving this week, I encourage you to take a minute to look around you and be grateful for everything you have. I firmly believe that, no matter your circumstances, there is always, always something to be thankful for!

My kind husband is going to brave Costco today to get pies so I don't have to, but I've got a million other things to get done before Turkey Day. There's too much going on in my head for me to be able to think up a good Top Ten Tuesday topic for today's Thanksgiving Freebie, so I'm just going to leave it at this: Happy Thanksgiving and Happy Top Ten Tuesday!

  6. Oh very nice! Yes, I believe there is always something to be thankful for and my family is forever in that number 1 spot! But since my "normal" things to be thankful for tend to be the same top 10, I decided to keep my post bookish this year!


    Here's my Tuesday Post

    Have a GREAT day!

Comments make me feel special, so go crazy! Just keep it clean and civil. Feel free to speak your mind (I always do), but be aware that I will delete any offensive comments.

P.S.: Don't panic if your comment doesn't show up right away. I have to approve each one before it posts to prevent spam. It's annoying, but it works!
