Attitude of Gratitude
The best part of Thanksgiving is that it has traditionally been a non-commercial holiday. Well, until stores decided to open this year but I digress. Thanksgiving is a day when you don't have to do anything but spend time eating and watching the parade and football with those we care about. It is always nice to take a moment though to think about all that you have to be thankful for this year. I am always thankful for my fabulous friends and family and wonderful readers. I've received so many wonderful emails lately and it is always nice to know that all the hard work that goes into the blog is appreciated by others.
The last chapter of the book Write It Down, Make It Happen is entitled Giving Thanks. "When you remember to say thanks, when you live your life in a spirit of gratefulness, life will present you with even more things for which to be grateful." Just a little something to think about on this day of Thanksgiving.

Thanksgiving Table Inspiration
In case you need help setting the table, here is a little last minute inspiration. Happy Thanksgiving!
Happy Thanksgiving!
Thanksgiving has generally become a holiday where people are allowed to gorge themselves on turkey and pumpkin pie while watching football games and parades. We often forget that it was originally created by the first settlers to celebrate the harvest and to give thanks in general for their new life in America. I have a lot to be thankful for this year and I'm always grateful for everything that blogging has brought to my life including great friends and wonderful experiences. I want to thank everyone who continues to read my blog everyday and for all your support and encouragement. I'm even a bit thankful for my detractors since they motivate me to work harder to accomplish more and prove them wrong. I hope you will all take a minute out of your Thanksgiving to think about what you are thankful this year too! Then you can unbutton your pants and go back for seconds! Happy Thanksgiving!

Thankful
I had planned to blog over the Thanksgiving holiday but then decided to take some much needed time off. But I wanted to take a moment to acknowledge how thankful I am for all the wonderful new people that I have met this year and for everyone who reads my blog and takes the time to leave comments. I really do appreciate your support and encouragement.What are you thankful for this year?
