happy thanksgiving to US friends and readers!
imo, any day is a perfect day to reflect on that for which we are thankful [thank you, fran, for that sentence structure example!]. rather than list the usual/general life thankfulnesses (family, friends, home, cereal, etc), here is a list of specific, small, good things from today that i might overlook on another day:
today, i was thankful for…
~ the beautiful weather -> forget september, it felt like april or even early may out there! i appreciated the sunshine and very pleasant/comfortable temp.
~ setting a date and time with debbie for our annual westmount xmas light-viewing walk-about. i appreciate longstanding friendships and traditions!
~ a new-for-me sales experience at theOTHERstore -> it was a good, good bingo (as we used to say in aruba) and a performance perk, shall we say, will be coming my way!
~ hearing the song beauty& a beat by justin bieber, featuring nicki minaj on my drive home. i appreciated the opp to sing along in the rav and be a little silly. [yes, i am embarrassed to like a jb song, you don’t even have to ask].
~ chatting with my neighbour, m, and seeing the holiday edition 2012 barbies that she had purchased for her grand-daughters. the little girls will be thrilled! i appreciate the many kind and friendly people in my building.
~ carbonated water being on sale at food basics for $0.79 per bottle. take that, $1 walmart water!!

Every day is Thanksgiving! It’s nice to remember all of the little stuff too. Have a great day!
stacie, i liked how we were both thinking along the same lines with our thanksgiving philosophy, yesterday! enjoy your day!
That IS a great motto on the shirt. When I worked in retail, my favorite thing was “dressing the dummies!!” Good things for which to be thankful, Cath!!
thanks, fran! i am taken back to my childhood days when i get to change the outfits…flashback to playing dress-up dolls! have a great day!
Laughed out loud at the cereal reference in your first paragraph. Any new cereals that I need to try? I tried Vector on your recommendation, and it’s JP’s all-time favourite now.
hey, cereal brings me daily happiness, what can i say! that is so cool that jp is a big vector fan now! well, if you need a cereal that is like dessert, give KRAVE a try. i can’t believe they call it “cereal!”
