Live your life in such a way that when your feet hit the floor in the morning, Satan shudders and says, "Oh darn... she's awake!!"

Giving Thanks

A lot of my friends in bloggy land are participating in "The Giving Thanks Challenge."

http://southbreezefarm.blogspot.com/2008/10/thankful-month.html

I have resisted doing this... not because I don't have a lot to be thankful for, but because I'm not the most articulate person in the world and I'm not the best at expressing my feelings using the written word. Actually, I kind of stink at it. Also, some things are just too personal for me to share with the general public.

But last night, as I was enjoying a nice, scortching hot shower, I realized that I am thankful for simple things as well as profound items. So here it is:

I'm thankful that I have HOT water in my house and that it's readily available.
I'm also thankful when I can shower at night when there is no one
waiting for for their own hot shower so I can stand there, enjoying the heat
and the steam... warmth sinking to my bones.
I stood in the shower for about 30 minutes last night.
Ahhh.... it was heaven.

Amen sister! I know what I am thankful... one person that actually views my blog! Ha ha. YOU!

Hot showers/hot baths--either are great.

I think being thankful for the simple things is what it's all about.
