Today I am grateful for cheese in a can . . .

What more is there to say?  It's awesome!

Today I am grateful for Arizona sunshine . . .

It was really cold today!!!  (For Phoenix, anyway.)  Thankfully, even when it's cold outside, we usually have plenty of sunshine.  I love the feeling of sitting in the car with the sun shining through the windows and moon roof.  It's just so cozy, and it makes me happy!  :)

Today I am grateful for Blockbuster Express kiosks . . .

We rented a DVD last night from the Blockbuster Express kiosk inside our neighborhood QT.  I love that they're cheap and convenient, and it doesn't hurt that I can pick up my favorite iced tea while I'm there!

Today I am grateful for those rare days when I have nothing I have to do . . .

There was absolutely nothing on my calendar today!  This is such a rarity that it really is cause for celebration.  I sat around in my sweats and did whatever I felt like all day.  I sorted through some pictures, wasted time on the internet and basically did a whole lot of nothing!  It's really nice to have a day like that every once in a while. :)

Today I am grateful for family time . . .

I love Thanksgiving!  Not for the food, but for the chance to spend time with family.  We're a little dysfunctional, to be sure, but we are endearingly so.  I'd be concerned if we were "normal."  Normal is boring, but crazy makes life interesting!  Regardless of the insanity, there is an abundance of love in our family, and that's why life is worth living!

Today I am grateful for electric blankets . . .

I have been freezing all day today!  People who don't live in Phoenix don't understand, but our 60-degree weather is a far cry from our 120-degree summer weather and it feels a lot colder than you would think!  I heard on the news today that tomorrow is supposed to be the coldest Thanksgiving here in almost 80 years!  Thankfully, a very nice friend of mine got me an electric blanket for Christmas several years ago, so I have been under it and feeling nice and cozy for the last several hours!

Today I am grateful for telecommuting . . .

I'm really not feeling well today, so the last thing I wanted to do was drive 2 hours to work this morning.  Telecommuting to the rescue!  I literally worked from bed today, so it wasn't a total loss.  Too bad I can't work from home every day!
