give thanks 24

1.I'm thankful that I was able to organize a homeschool group buy of tickets to Christmas Around the World. It is great that so many people (148) will be able to go at a discounted price.

2. I'm thankful that when I was putting all the tickets into groups, it worked out perfectly with each group's seats together on the same row.

3. I'm thankful that I was able to work on a Thanksgiving centerpiece today. Even though, nobody but me may appreciate it, I will love it and be glad I was able to beautify my home and table. And I'm glad I could find the inspiration from a Pottery Barn catalog.

4. I'm thankful that when I had enough of the children screaming and crying, I could put myself in time out. Even though I somehow ended up on my bed in time out with Anne and Sawyer, I was still able to take a deep breath and get myself back together. I'm thankful that I was able to choose to turn off the TV (even though SYTYCD was on!) and instead read books to my children.

5. I'm thankful to know that I have the power to change the energy and feeling in my home.

Sounds like you are feeling pretty powerful and that that feels pretty good. I, on the other hand, bombed on Merrit's wedding dress and am in a funk. Just a little funk.
