This must be my favorite list so far because there were SO many that jumped out at me... but here are just a few:
#186 - it is so hard to find a good lotion that you just LOVE
#187 - I saw a lady with really white hair the other night. I told Dave that if I knew my hair would be that white and not salt and pepper, I believed I'd just do it. He argued that she colored it. It was to the roots... how do you tell?? Do people color their hair gray/silver??
#192 - We had a convertable Corvair. Love those old cars
#194 - Ever since I've been doing Project 365, I want a really good camera. So. Bad.
#197 - I spend many a weekend curled up with the Hallmark Channel. I'm already counting down to the Christmas movies. LOVE THEM.
#201 - I can cry at just seeing an American Flag. Put the National Anthem with it and I'm a gonner!! I LOVE MY COUNTRY!
#224 - I do that all the time.
I'm having so much fun with your lists!!! And we're only in the 200s!
How do you keep track of them all...I'd be repeating way too much, not that I don't have 10,000 blessings in my life I just tend to get really happy about some that are front and center. Then again I would guess and exercise in naming 1000 makes you look beyond the front and center:)
Flush toilets pretty much are taken for granted till the power goes off and water is unavailable, then it moves to #1.
So far, you have hit the nail head every time.
#230 - so am I!
I was in bed this morning thinking about your blog and the 1000 things I am thankful for. I thought I should do my own blessings list, but I quickly gave up on the idea because I realized that I could never remember the things I'd already listed and would repeat myself....so I will continue to enjoy your list and nod my head in agreement.
I am thinking of you. God bless you in your good works. My grandson's missionary farewell is this coming Sunday and then he will be off to Guatemala for 2 years. He is 19.... I'm sure the work and learning the language will be hard for him but he will be blessed with the ability to serve....God will give him the strength to do His work just like He is for you and your dh.
I'm sending hugs, Lura
Love it! Go, girl, go!
Enjoying your continued list! Flush toilets is high on my list of gratitude too! lol!
