She still leaves me cute notes and buys me things she likes (such as the Hello Kitty activity/coloring book she left in my room yesterday) when she knows I need cheering up.<br /><br />I'm thankful for my father and his obvious concern for me and my life (not in a bad way!). I had an interview this morning and he grilled me before and after, before with potential questions and after with queries about what really had been asked.<br /><br />I'm thankful for my handful of friends with whom I believe I'll be in touch with for the rest of my life. For some, it can be months or even years since we've talked, but things can still fall back into place (as I found out at least once this year).<br /><br />I'm thankful for my pets for their crazy antics, and how they love me unconditionally.<br /><br />On a sillier note, I'm thankful for Taylor Swift and all of her postings of her adorable new cat. I'm also thankful that I finally managed to secure a decent seat for her show next week. I've been giddy about it ever since!<br /><br />And, since I'm on this blog, I'm thankful for the community of book lovers that I've found in the past few months. I began working at a bookstore (a long-time dream) and work doesn't feel like work when I get to talk to people who are passionate about what they read or what they study.<br /><br />(I'm sorry, I talk a lot. This was a good topic. It certainly cheered me up.)Bonniehttp://www.goodreads.com/user/show/2059679-bonnienoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-80275100215492241572011-11-18T19:56:04.102-08:002011-11-18T19:56:04.102-08:00I am thankful for knowledge and learning.

Though I hope I win this because how cool would <i>seven</i> books be?<br /><br />I am beyond thankful for my beautiful children, even with their individual challenges(almost-teenage girl? sheesh! AND a three year old at the same time.... with rambunctious boy thrown in the middle for good measure). They make me smile and explode with happy every day. <br /><br />I am also currently pretty thankful that, while I'm certainly nowhere near the word count I should be for nanowrimo, this is the first thing i've written in years and years and years that I am enjoying enough that it flows fairly easily and that I want to be writing when I'm not and that I suspect will turn out to be pretty decent.<br /><br />And I suppose I'm also thankful that they haven't yet replaced teachers entirely with computers, because it means I still have a job. <br /><br />OH! And I am so thankful for wonderful authors who put their heart and soul into their work, because I am an addict of good books.<br /><br />Good luck to you on the impending release of the book. Can't wait to read it!EttyOophttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08994640526985345912noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-36494411011084480762011-11-18T19:14:22.990-08:002011-11-18T19:14:22.990-08:00I am thankful for the health and happiness of my f...I am thankful for the health and happiness of my friends and family - we are so fortunate!<br /><br />I am also thankful to finally read The Future of Us on Tuesday!bobcatgradhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17823447729690905812noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-45657038346871423982011-11-18T19:09:21.182-08:002011-11-18T19:09:21.182-08:00This comment has been removed by the author.Beth https://www.blogger.com/profile/10007815667927914781noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-30155656.post-22640008486288501732011-11-18T19:05:05.712-08:002011-11-18T19:05:05.712-08:00I'm thankful for everything I have that I enjo...I'm thankful for everything I have that I enjoy and is good for me.
