I'm thankful for a heart of contientment and my spiritual gifts, which allows me to help others. The family God gave me and the friends he sends my way. The magnificant creation of nature. The country in which I live. The freedom to worship. Most importantly I am loved!

I am thankful for grandchildren who live nearby so I can see them and love them up. I am thankful for family and friends who accept me for who I am. I am thankful for my DH who puts up with me. I am thankful for living in America.

Health that abounds in our bodies, and a good life in general; freedom to be ourselves and the love of family

For Jesus and my wonderful DH and DS. And also that I finally got out of the hospital after a severe illness, on my birthday!

In all things give thanks...
Blessings abound.
So many things - God the Father, DH, adult children, friends, food, shelter, 3 dogs, cars, return to better health after illness, of course my quilting and crocheting, and like someone else mentioned - mint chocolate chip ice cream!

I am thankful that God allowed me to be born in America.

my health, my family, my friends
and, that I'm an American

I am thankful for the good health of my beautiful family and the bountiful blessings God has given us.

I'm thankful that I have not one thing to be worried or stressed about. My DH, kids and their families are all in excellent health, no debt, and we go and do and have fun together.

My family and my life and all it has given me.

My God and Savior, Jesus Christ who leads me every minute of everyday.

My loving family.

All my quilting friends, pals and mentors

My special friend Mary Lou who had the knowledge to help my husband during his heart attack and for giving me 4 extra years with him. I am very thankful and proud to call her friend.

This wonderful quilt board members who inspire me with all the beautiful quilts, free patterns,help when I have problems.

And the stash I am building up and the ability to turn that stash into something special.

Thanks to all on the board. Old and new and newer members.

Pat

Thankful for health, family, friends, home, and able to enjoy my life and hobbies.

What am I thankful for? A Sunday NASCAR race and quilting. I have a TV in my sewing room and I watch NASCAR on Sunday and sew. Now that is a perfect afternoon. I made a wallet to go with a Bow Tucks purse yesterday.

my wonderful hubby, who supports all my quirky habits like buying more fabric when i have a ton at home, my two kids, their spouses, my 3 grandsons, that everyone has good health, and that my life is good!!!

Waking up!

I am thankful for the above, but I am also thankful, God has given me the knowledge to learn how to sew after being 50 yrs old before beginning. And that my disk in my neck is still allowing me to quilt in small doses. And thankful my hubby lets me walk in front of the tv a million times laying the quilts out as I am piecing and he said: I am going to count one day how many times you walk, and pick up and lay that quilt down. LOL

The same thing I just posted on What makes me happy -

EVERY morning I wake up I feel blessed. God has given me another day to enjoy the bounties He puts around me every day.

A loving family, supporting friends, a friendly neighborhood to live in, & His beautiful world that still can reveal it's positive side w/the beautiful people who live in it. Like the people on this QB. :thumbup: :thumbup:

Thankful mostly for being born in a country that allows me the freedom to lead the life I want.
Of course Im thankful for a healthy family, friends, etc.
I wish all of you a happy, healthy, long life.

Great subject! Everyday I look around and I am thankful for everything I see. Life could be alot worse.

My dad use to say "If you have your health you have everything." This is so true. He passed away at 61, having had a heart attach at 42. I am grateful for health and a loving family and a few good friends. I have had a good life with little stress and am hopeful that the downturn so many are feeling will soon correct itself.

A God who loves me

A wonderful, supportive hubby,

Good health

God, my husband, my family, my friends, my home, beauty in nature, food, a comfortable bed and pillow, freedom, my car, and on and on.

All of the above and happy to still be alive. I'm last of five kids to still be alive.

That the Lord saved my soul for eternity and blessed me with 8 kids, 25 grandchildren and 9 great grandchildren. I am thankful that he let me belong to a large family growing up where we were always around aunts, uncles. cousins, and grandparents. I am thankful that my children understand that they are loved unconditionally no matter what they do. They know I do not always like what they do but they know I love them.

:thumbup:

two wonderful daughters (and a son-in-law), parents who are still with us, a husband who loves and suports me, and a hobby that keeps me sane! :lol:

I can pay off my bills each month. -- J

My Faith, my family, my friends. Living in the USA! I love my home and where I live---a furry family to keep me company and love me. I am thankful that I can pay my bills and have enough left over to have fabric and vintage sewing machines!

I am thankful for my family and friends. Most of all that God loves me and is with me at all times.

Oh, my! Where to begin? Blessings all over the place! The world's best husband, kids, grandkids, and so much more! God is good and generous! I don't deserve any of it!

ditto..except my job, retired!

A Vacation Day!! I so need to not go into work on a monday morning!

I am very thankful for my family, friends, home, church, pets, health and to be living in the USA!

A home to live in,
Grandkids to hug and kiss,
A free country,
Sunshine and flowers,
Friends to laugh and smile with especially in hard times

That I woke up this morning, and my hubby was sleeping beside me. Life is too short to fret the small stuff! Hubby just finished treatment for his CLL (type of leukemia that is not curable, but controlable), and all looks great. He is at doctor now, testing to see how well the treatment really did. We know we don't feel any more lumps, and his counts are great...but checking to see if any cll cells still in his nodes and blood. If not...next will be a bone marrow biopsy to see if any still in the marrow.
Lon supports me in all I do...and we laugh a lot these days...just enjoying lifes little joys... critters, raindrops on the roof, sunsets, stars...and I love yous from our children.

my shop hop buddy!!

That God has blessed me with salvation.
Secondarily...a husband who is not only tolerant of my quilting but also very supportive, a devoted son, a wonderful sister and niece and two gorgeous great-nephews.
Thirdly...great, and I do mean great, friends.
Finally...clean air, clean water, food, housing, access to medical care.
Oh...quilting!
