Gratitude and Thanksgiving: Chipped Teeth, Crusty Dishes, and What’s That Smell?

With the approach of Thanksgiving, it’s only right that I express my gratitude. So here goes!

I am thankful for

• The unique whiff I get when I slide under the sheets next to my sleeping husband, because at least he’s there.

• Crusty dishes in the sink, because there’s always plenty to eat.

• Leftover mashed potatoes. They can be added to almost anything else you eat.
• The way my new dog chews holes in my carpet, (yes, holes, I said), because a dog is better than no dog (ahem!).
• The way said new dog has ruined every flower bed in our backyard, thus freeing up time I use to spend on gardening.

• The way my husband smiles, chipped teeth and all, thanks to roughhousing with kids.

• Pillows all over the floor, thanks to roughhousing kids. Lived in house equals loved house.
• Potential clients who find out I actually charge for my services, only to never be heard from again. Such a time-saver.
• Love to go around a million times over in my family.

Happy Thanksgiving!

P.S. What are you thankful for?
