Last week was hot, and I wasn't thankful for that return to summer AGAIN. It was crazy at school because of picture days. I'm tired of my summer clothes and want to wear sweaters and boots and I can't because summer WON'T FREAKING GO AWAY. I'm terrified of the potential outcome for the election next week and I can't listen to one more polling result or political ad or interview. Seems like a good time to push all that aside and look for the thankfuls!
This week, I'm thankful for:
1. That sweet angle of the sun on fall afternoons that make trees look like they are on fire.

2. Walking every evening with my husband for Walktober.
3. Taking my almost 90 year old dad to vote.
4. Homemade pumpkin cookies.
5. Hugs and I love yous from preschoolers.
6. The Chiefs are 7-0 and working on a three-peat!
7. Preschool art that makes me giggle like a 13 year old boy.

8. Target white tea and peach melatonin gummies that are tasty AND help me sleep.
9. Cool cheese graters that make the process a snap.

10. Freshly popped popcorn, done the right way, on the stove top and with lots of butter.
I did it! Ten things of thankful. Done.
#10. Yum to lots of butter, and #1 isn't it gorgeous!
ReplyDeletePopcorn is the perfect snack this time of year. Or any time of year. We all need to look for the good and you found plenty, thank you for sharing your smile bringers.
ReplyDeleteThat fiery fall sunlight is magical, and walking with your husband sounds like such a peaceful way to soak it in.
