Like many people I know, I decided to participate in the "30 Days of Thankful" on Facebook. Each day in November, I looked forward to reading what everyone was thankful for in their lives. And each day, I posted something that I was thankful for. Some things were silly, like November 5th, when I had a particularly rough day and was simply thankful for chocolate, but other days were more significant and included my daughter, family, and friends. Just for fun, I thought I'd compile a list of each of my posts here, so I could easily look back and be reminded of all the things in my life that I have to be thankful for. Here goes...
