Now on Wednesday!
This week is 10 things I'm thankful for, and there are a large number of things on the list. Probably way more than 10 if I give it a bit of a think.
One | Singing. I'm by no means the best singer on the block, so it is great to work with this great group of people. The chorus is fun place to be! |
Two | Iolanthe is the spring show, and I'm going to be there with bells on for the auditions. I will happily take my spot in the chorus again with pride. |
Three | Crafting. I haven't gotten quite as much done as I wanted to this year, but at the same time I am looking at my list of projects in Ravelry and realizing I've finished a lot more than I thought I had. That is really cool! |
Four | The oven. We needed to have an element repaired in the oven a few weeks ago, and the service was quick, friendly and efficient. The time without a working oven reminded me of how much I like to bake and how much even without baking I actually use the darn thing. |
Five | My lovely husband. He's letting me make a sweater for him (which will be started after the holiday knitting craze is over). We've got a pattern, a yarn, etc.. Being able to make something for him is a great gift. |
Six | Chocolate. I am really enjoying the seasonal Ritter Sport with Peppermint. Delicious dark chocolate, sharp peppermint flavor. Just don't eat it all at once! |
Seven | Thanksgiving. My favorite holiday is Halloween, but Thanksgiving is right behind it. It's a cooking holiday, where I get to make a ridiculous amount of food even if I am not expecting guests. This year there will be pumpkin cheesecake and pumpkin pie most likely for dessert! And enough mashed potatoes to make potato pancakes for breakfast that weekend. |
Eight | Lolcats. If I'm in a bad mood, there is always a lolcat to brighten my day. |
Nine | Fantasy Football. I'm not a big sports maven, but fantasy football allows the ambivalent to get into the game. I always find it easier to root for (or against) individuals, so I'm a lot more interested in football since I joined the league (even if I am losing this year). |
Ten | The gym. I've seriously fallen down the well when it comes to my gym time, but I'm hoping to get back to it soon. It's hard to miss so much time, knowing that I feel better for having it. My hair is too freshly dyed to go for the next 48 hours (red needs the extra time to sink in), so I will go on Friday and enjoy it immensely! |
