Me? How could I not be thankful for this?

P is for Pumpkin
We’re T-minus six days (Or something – military, spacey talk has never been my specialty. Shocked?) from Thanksgiving. Even though we should stop and count our blessings every day, it’s this particular time of year when we can’t help ourselves. We can’t help but spend some time dwelling on the goodness.
You may be expecting the cheesy list of things I’m thankful for this year. Well, you’re not getting it. For one thing, I haven’t finished compiling my list; and for another thing, I think I’m saving it for next Thursday’s post.
I do have something for you, though.
In the spirit of the season, the fabulous Gigi at KludgyMom compiled a Thanksgiving eBook, The Thanksgiving Table. The stories in the book can be found on KludgyMom daily, from now through early December.
I’ve read the book and there’s something for everyone, from food to crafts to sentiment to a Thanksgiving rap. And in case it wasn’t obvious, what with all my eBook pimping, I have a piece in there. My submission, Control Issues, will run on Gigi’s site on Tuesday, November 30. You don’t have to mark your calendar or anything, though. I’ll remind you.
Or, if you just can’t stand waiting, and you’re dying to read the book now, now, now, you can click here: The Thanksgiving Table
Look at that. Something to be thankful for: two ways to access The Thanksgiving Table. We aim to please.
I wonder…
:: What are you feeling thankful for right now, this very minute?
Here’s my answer: I get to spend today with my mom, just us. That is a rare and special thing. And I am thankful.

Here’s the newest thing I’m thankful for–besides, of course, Mark Ruffalo’s latest movie coming out on DVD soon, I’m thankful to be included with such a fine group of ladies in our little Thanksgiving project. And more importantly, I am thankful for these fun, rollicking emails and coffee cups and shower head talk and being a part of such beautiful camaraderie, at a time when I needed it the most. As my head pounds, during this revision process, it’s nice to hear that constant ding of my email knowing, a smile is waiting for me.
I am thankful for you pimping me out the way you do. It is awesome. 🙂 No seriously. I am thankful for innumerable things this year, not the least of which is the amazing friendships I’ve made through blogging this year…including yours! 🙂
Not to sound ungrateful but I’m thankful for the kids bed time right now. It’s been a long day. I’m also thankful for cozy PJs!
That ebook sounds amazing. Can’t wait to start reading. Congrats to you and to Gigi!!
We are still Mavening, aren’t we? I do like the pictures of your cute boys! And, thanks for the idea about the Thanksgiving book link. I need to promote that mess!

My boy had the same costume. Wasn’t it great?! I am so grateful that we get to see some family next week that we haven’t seen in a while!

Right this minute, I am NOT thankful that my sister is whistling Somewhere Over the Rainbow, but I AM thankful she is whistling it instead of singing, because her singing is just terrible!
But I am thankful right now, this sounds so wrong, that my guys are in bed and I have some me time. Guilty pleasure of mine: bedtime!
