Time for another addition of Thankful Thursday Alphabet. It's "D" day! So let's see what begins with D that I'm thankful for......
Daughter-in-law--I have a very precious daughter-in-law named Kirsten. One of our special annual events that we enjoy doing together is going shopping in the wee hours on the Friday after Thanksgiving. On Thanksgiving Day, we shuffle through the ads and plan our attack. We've left as early as 4:30 in the morning. We laugh and talk (mostly about how insane we are) and usually end up with some pretty good bargains. Somewhere along the way, we end up getting some lunch and head home for naps.
Drugs (legal ones)--I'm thankful that God has gifted mankind with the ability to research and find medicines to help our bodies get well or at least ease the discomforts of all kinds of illnesses.
Deadlines--I'm a very deadline driven personality and so I'm thankful that we have deadlines to motivate us to get things done. Otherwise, I'd probably procrastinate forever!! Meeting the deadline also sets us up for a celebration!! It feels so good to work toward a deadline and then meet it.
Dirt--I can remember as a child how much fun it was to play in the dirt and then get cleaned up again. Ever so often now, I find a need to "play in the dirt" by planting something in my garden or flower beds or flower pots. I find that it is peaceful and therapeutic to work with nature. So I'm thankful for dirt!
Well, that's what came to mind.
Have a great Thursday!!
