always chatty at the O!!
So, this is the month for Thanksgiving for those in the US and one thing we like to do here at the O is remember what we are thankful for. So, here's a little challenge to all of you...let's try and be thankful for 1 thing everyday. You can post it here or on FB. I know it always helps me to get ready for the holidays witha thankful spirit.

So today, November 2...I am thankful for my amazing online friends who get me through the bad days.

There are so many things I'm thankful for, my wonderful husband who spoils me rotten, my wonderful kids and grandkids. With so many out of work and as much as I complain about my job and being tired, I truely am grateful to have one....

I did this last year. Okay, here we go. It's the third, I'll do three today:
1. I am happy to have a husband who loves me. I know the two should go hand in hand, but clearly they don't always do that. So I'm grateful to be one of the lucky ones.
2. I'm grateful to have great kids. They aren't perfect, but they're mine, and they are all so, so fabulous!
3. I'm grateful for being strong. Even when times are tough, I can rise above. Sometimes it takes a lot more work than other times, but I can always do it, with help from God.

Today I am thankful for the small things...all three small things in my life (my 3 boys). Sometimes they drive me nuts but they stretch me and I love them!

Today I am thankful for my faith and that when I am far from my friends and family I can always help them by praying.

This is much needed for me today. Not having a goos one... so let's see what I can be grateful about.

I am grateful for Xanax?? LOL
(well, I am!)

How about, on a more serious note, that I am grateful that I have a firm belief in the saying "This too shall pass." And some day, some year-- it will.

hmmm. too early in the morning to be grateful for much, except coffee! however. OK. here's an insight into my weird brain: i'm thankful for diversions. the radio, my iPad, movies and apps that give me access to video. it helps me get my mind off "things," whether it be unpleasant life events or me feeling like crap. the diversions help get me through the day and actually get stuff DONE--because if you're thinking about something else, you're not thinking about yourself. my own version of cognitive therapy! yay!

Today, I am grateful for sales. That may sound silly, but I try very hard to be a good steward of our money. I am happy this is DSD so that I can get good prices on kits and things that help me scrap family memories. I don't go overboard, but do appreciate the deals designers provide. These sales help me use God's gift of money more wisely.

Hi, Scrappinnewbie!

I don't know if you are aware of this but:

Have you checked out O'Scraps Facebook Page?
If you "like" them there's a fantastic collaboration kit they are giving away this weekend.

Also the freebies section in the store has great goodies!

Hope you check out the challenges and join in the fun!

today i'm thankful for people like ViVre. the Random Act of Kindness she did for Ang, even though they've never met, is just an amazing and gracious thing. ViVre went to find Ang's dad's gravesite in France, where he died in WWII when Ang and her twin were just babies. ViVre took photos for Ang of the site. such thoughtfulness is just beyond description. amazing.
