Thankful Thursday

Today I am Thankful....

  • That my husband is happy. He has found his passion in yoga and you can tell. He will be visiting Florida in the next little while to work on his teaching certificate. I love how excited he is about this. He's worked hard to make this happen and it does my heart good to see him following his dreams. (Even if those dreams do lead him to a certain school that will remain un-named.)
  • I am Thankful for this... Seriously. How did/do people live without this?
  • Only seven more days until Summer break for the kids. And yes, right now, I am looking forward to it. My attitude may change seven days into Summer break but right now I am looking forward to spending more time with my four podlings.
  • For a good walking buddy. Mindi is good company and that is just what I need right now.
  • For this...yes even with the little clouds and lightning on it. I love thunder showers. LOVE them and it seems like the last few years I have been short changed in this department. We had a really nice thunder shower yesterday. That and this is more "Spring-like" weather that I enjoy.
  • And of course for this...I'm still on the learning curve with it but I am loving it.
What are you Thankful for today?

Great list. I'm thankful for some clouds and that it will only be 92 here today instead of 106!

Little boys in basketball shorts and random holidays off of school.

P.S. I'm jealous of your seven days. We are on year round and we still have 3 weeks.

Jillene said...

I am thankful that we have Enrichment tonight but I will be even more thankful when it is over (see--I am in charge).

I am thankful for great blog friends--especially ones that I have met. Blogging is a great thing!!

I love thunderstorms too! Although, please, don't let it rain during Little Man's soccer times.
Whoo hoo for new cameras, they are a joy to discover. That picture of your honey is too sweet. He is lucky to have such a supportive wife. Feel free to tell him I said that!

I am thankful for ice packs when I have headaches. I had a nasty one last night and cold packs are what got me through it.

I adore Yoga. It's probably my all time favorite for of exercise.

Unknown said...

Good things to be thankful for! I know there are many more, but these are good ones to revel in today.

Leslie said...

I think that's so awesome your husband is getting his yoga teaching certificate. I saw him in the article about Erin and didn't even know he taught yoga. NExt time I visit PG I'll have to check out his class.

Melinda said...

I LOVE thunderstorms! We get some wicked ones here in Texas, though. Just as long as there are no tornadoes I'm fine.

Kristina P. said...

I am thankful I get to leave work early today!

Jan said...

I am so jealous of your walking buddy. I was just thinking how I wish I had one. The camera is awesome and toilet paper is one of the 7th wonders of the world right :)

Olivia Carter said...

I'm thankful for modern medicine.

We're heading out to an orthopedic appointment for Rob (just a check up) Because they caught a severe hip problem early Rob won't be crippled. That's pretty darn amazing.

Oh, that & chocolate!

I'm thankful for good friends who make me laugh.

Lara Neves said...

I'm so thankful school's out tomorrow!

Barbaloot said...

I'm thankful that yoga isn't the only form of exercise! I do it once a week and it's easily the most difficult thing ever! And I kind of hate it---maybe cuz I'm not even a little flexible. As in, I can't touch my toes. But I think it's awesome that your husband loves it.

mCat said...

Great list! And I too am a fan of the yoga! I barely have the maturity to do it, since people in funny positions makes me giggle, especially when they let one rip - but nonetheless, I feel FANTASTIC afterward

Wonder Woman said...

I'm thankful you're thankful. I'm not feeling very grateful today and I think I could use a good dose of gratitude.

I'm thankful for thunderstorms, too.

Lady of Perpetual Chaos said...

I love thunder storms too. And yoga. One day, when I grow up, I want to teach yoga. I'm just not sure how to go about doing that. I'm also thankful for good things that come in the mail...like cameras! ;o) I'm thankful for warm cement in the summer, cold drinks, laundry detergent, my dishwasher, red hair, onesies, baby socks....
I'll stop now before I shut down your blog....

Erin said...

What a nice thankful list. I love the rain, especially when it is warm.

Kate said...

Great list. I am so thankful for beautiful weather and for time and money to vacation with family. Great post.

Toilet Paper aka TP, is the best thing EVER invented!!

Pedaling said...

we have major amounts of toilet paper in our year supply- very important, yes.

tiburon said...

Toilet paper rocks! Great list this week :)

Omgirl said...

I hear you on the t.p. And I actually lived 4 months of my life w/o it (India) so I can really say that life is better with toilet paper!

Elisa said...

I listened to it rain all night-- it was AWESOME!!


I love this song, btw!!

susette said...

Hot Water is right at the top of my list. I always worry that someday there won't be any.

Cute post!

Stephanie said...
