Three is a charm......especially when it comes to giving thanks....

It's the third Monday of November.
It's time to give thanks.

Remember...that's what we're doing here on Mondays in November.
We're not bitching and moaning about the fact that it's Monday.
We're kicking off our week with a simple thank you....
If you need a little refresher.....click here....

So, what simple, little thing am I thankful on this third Monday of November?
Let's see--on the first Monday I was thankful for chili beans.
....on the second Monday I was thankful for Monday diets.
Today I am thankful for sturdy lawn and leaf bags.....



Yes, friends...that's right. I'm grateful for those huge, strong lawn and leaf bags. They are now filling up my SUV.....stuffed with clothes.....heading to the Goodwill in about 2 hours or so. My vehicle is filled to the brim....I must have shoved 30 of them into my trusty Ford Escape. They didn't tear or rip even though I man-handled them quite a bit--forcing just one more thing into them, rolling them down the steps, kicking them out the door and squishing them to make room for more. We sometimes forget just how wonderful those bags are and just how easy they make our lives.
I am so damn thankful for lawn and leaf bags this Monday morning that I just feel like crying.....

I'm thankful for my computer. I simply cannot imagine my life without computers. They entertain me at work when I'm bored with, great old tv shows & movies. (I watched "If It's Tuesday,This Must Be Belgium" just a few weeks ago. I love the ease of staying in touch with people. I love looking at my photos on the computer. I LOVE my computer. I am thankful for my computer!!!

I'm VERY thankful for the Advil kicking in so fast that I took this morning for my stiff back.
