30 Days of Thanks - Week 3

Saturday, November 17 - Today, I am thankful for my neighbor who came over to ask if she could clean up my dead hostas while she was cleaning up hers.... yum, YEAH!!  How nice was that??  After spending the day working at a vendor/craft show I was flat out pooped and that made my day! :)

Sunday, November 18 - I am thankful for Art Modell, who brought football back to Baltimore.  After such a tragedy when the Colts moved to Indy in the middle of the night in March of 1984, Baltimore went without football for 12 years!!  Lucky for us, Art Modell moved the Cleveland Brown's to Baltimore in 1996 and the team was re-named the Baltimore Ravens.  Unfortunately Mr. Modell passed away this year, but Baltimore will always be grateful!  GO RAVENS!!!

Monday, November 19 - I am thankful for my friends.  I am so lucky that I still have old friends from high school and college and new friends that I have met throughout the years after.  I seriously love each & every one of my friends and know how blessed I am!!! :)

Tuesday, November 20 - I am thankful that God choose the right person to be my mom!!  Among many things, she is my best friend, my biggest supporter and cheerleader, she is patient, caring, understanding, and of course fun!  I love my mom!

Wednesday, November 21 - And of course I am thankful for my dad!!  My dad has always been there for me and I love spending time with him.  He is very supportive and loves sharing his life's wisdom.  We are alike in so many ways and always have fun together.  I love being Daddy's little girl!

Thursday, November 22 - Today, on Thanksgiving, I am most thankful for my family!  Although I do not have a large family and we are spread all over the U.S., I have an awesome family & am grateful for each of them!!

Friday, November 23 - I am thankful for all the retail store associates who were very pleasant to all us crazy shoppers during Black Friday!  Especially in the middle of the night!  Thanks for being so nice & friendly!!!
