Thanks for Thanksgiving Week!

I have to begin this Thanksgiving week by saying how grateful I am to all of you who follow
Good News!
and especially those of you who leave comments
and let me know there is really someone out there reading this.
I also want to announce that awhile back I responded to the comments people left on
Good News!
but I stopped because it didn't seem anyone was reading them--
especially the person I was responding to.
But I miss the interaction and so I am going to respond once again to comments that are left here.
So be sure to look back if you left a comment and read my response.
 
I hope you enjoy every moment of this week of gratitude!
Of all the holidays in the year, Thanksgiving is my favorite
and that's why I'm making it into a week long celebration instead of a one day event.
I am thankful for so many things I can't fit it all into one day!
Today I'm concentrating on you and friends and family relationships. I'm so very grateful!

Playing the "But Thanks" Game

I'm playing the But Thanks game today. My day started like all teaching days. The alarm went off, I rolled out of bed, put on my exercise clothes, and walked downstairs to get a drink of water before my prayers and stretching out. 

The only problem is that instead of walking down the last three or four stairs, I tumbled down them. My shoulder hurts. I can barely walk on my right foot. My hand is swollen, 
But Thanks that I didn't fall from the top stair. 
But Thanks I wasn't knocked unconscious or hit my head. 
But Thanks I didn't shatter the glass display case at the bottom of the stairs. 
But Thanks Mr. J was there to help take care of me and drive me to work. 
But Thanks I made it to school (barely in time). 
But Thanks I made it through my first class of the day. 

And here's hoping that at the end of the day I can say, "But Thanks" that I made it through my three back to back afternoon classes. I'll count on that!

There's always something to be grateful for!
