WOW, you came up with 100! Good for you, feeling better now? I hope so! I like to think about those that are less fortunate than myself, living in third world countries, then I get a swift dose of reality, and my life all the sudden doesn't seem so bad. I am RICH by their standards, actually by the world's standards!
Great list! I'm also thankful for a lot of the things you put on your list. I'm sad that we couldn't see you this weekend, but we did have a good Thanksgiving. I cooked an entire Thanksgiving meal by myself, and we have tons of leftovers because Doug's still getting used to eating again. I hope you have a fabulous rest of the weekend. And I'm sorry I missed out on the Thanksgiving craft! I was excited about that.
The sale was at some random store on State Street in Pleasant Grove, but it was Scrapbook Express doing the sale.
