Days of Thanksgiving: One

I love Christmas. I start listening to Christmas music as soon as I feel the urge, usually sometime after Halloween. The weather needs to start getting yucky and the darkness needs to start consuming my early evenings. Even in my love of Christmas however, early Christmas displays in stores irritate me. I don't want to see tinsle and candy canes until the end of November. 

I don't have a Nordstrom store anywhere near me, but if I did I would give them all of my business. This month I'm dedicating my postings to things for which I am thankful. I'm going to take the time to recognize the things in my life that give it meaning.


1. I am thankful for my family. This week JO has been living with us because she had an allergic reaction to some antibiotics and needed a comfortable haven to re-cooperate in. I am thankful both for the resources to be able to offer her a room and for the support of family when things get itchy!
