Junie Posted November 23, 2023 Author Share Posted November 23, 2023 I am thankful for so many things this year! I have been battling depression for several years, and that has lifted and I am so, so grateful. I am thankful for some very special people in my church who fought with me. My asthma and mobility are improving. My food allergies miraculously disappeared. I had a severe allergy to wheat, so I had been gluten free for 15 years. This summer, my doctor re-tested me and my food allergies were gone! Also, I am no longer allergic to animals! I had been allergic to basically every mammal for my entire life -- those allergies are gone, too. :) I am thankful for family and friends -- including all of you here. You have helped me in ways that you cannot know. Thank you! :) 22 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MercyA Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 My family (including my animals), my friends (including you all!), my washing machine, my small town. Humor. Good tv shows and movies. Good books. The beauty of the earth. Running water. Coffee. Little kids. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

73349 Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 A feast with two of my favorite people in the world (DH and DS)! And our dishwasher broke a few weeks ago and DH was able to fix it, making every day, but especially a holiday, so much easier. And it's a clear, sunny day, and we went for a walk together after lunch. Just lots of really good stuff. 11 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DawnM Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 My college boys are home and we are enjoying spending time together. I am so thankful for my family. Close friends who are loyal and are lifelong friends. Food, shelter, enough to live on (and more!) Jobs to pay for the above! 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kareni Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 I'm thankful for family and friends. I'm grateful for good health and for the fact that I live in a peaceful place. I'm thankful for all the food my husband is cooking. I'm grateful for those who people this board and for @Susan Wise Bauer who gifts it to us. Regards, Kareni 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halftime Hope Posted November 23, 2023 Share Posted November 23, 2023 Thankful for a healthy baby granddaughter in spite of her arriving early (in June), so she's now 4 months gestational age and doing well. Thankful for faith and the miracle that preceded it. Deeply, insanely thankful for the beauty of our world, and the precious people in it. Thankful I have heat. LOL! 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ikslo Posted November 25, 2023 Share Posted November 25, 2023 Well, I missed this thread yesterday, but I’m kind of feeling thankful for cranberry farmers right about now. 🤣 Thankful for a DH who surprised me with a visit from my dad for the holiday. 7 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

popmom Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 (edited) I am grateful for this community. I am grateful for my husband and my children. I am grateful for my new, wonderful son in law and his whole family who are loving on my daughter this Thanksgiving. I am grateful for the Robovac that is currently vacuuming AND mopping my floors. I am grateful for the sweetest gift! My oldest dd got me this pin the last time she was in Auburn. (I have a chi mix grand-fur-baby that I adore) I am thankful even though it didn’t work like I hoped it would. 😭 I am grateful that my husband and kids went to the game today, and I was home alone to watch the Iron Bowl because my husband is FOUL right now. He has a whole 2 hour drive home to cool off. 😂 Edited November 26, 2023 by popmom 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoVanGogh Posted November 26, 2023 Share Posted November 26, 2023 I am thankful that immunotherapy is working its magic on my DH’s cancer. I am thankful for good friends and family that have been with us through this journey, especially one friend whose DH also has cancer and is not doing well. I feel awful for them. I am so thankful that my child, born premature after suffering a stroke, is graduating from college in a few weeks. It has taken a lot of blood, sweat and tears and therapies to get them to this point and I am very thankful for SWB and the WTM books and community. Homeschooling this child was brutal at times, but it allowed them to develop and learn at their own pace. I am very thankful that my 2 year old nephew recently sailed through an all day surgery for a life-altering surgery and that he lives in a time and place where this surgery was possible. 9 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
