with a little help from my friends: thankful lists.

I have never done a mini-series on this blog, so I am super excited to introduce you to my very first one! With a Little Help From My Friends (many thanks to The Beatles - their songs make the best blog titles IMHO) is a mini-series where I will ask input on a variety of topics or questions, some serious and some so-not, from a variety of friends and readers. I love hearing from different people from different backgrounds with different tastes, and I think that is what makes blog world so unique! I am also hoping that by featuring some of these bloggers, you will discover new blogs and make new friends because of it. Enjoy!

is it just me but every time Thanksgiving season rolls around this time of the year, everybody goes into fast-forward mode? no, just me? we all know that we are supposed to stop in our tracks and take the day to be grateful; however, our holiday mode actually has us going the opposite direction, doesn't it? we are not stopping - we are going-going-going.

so with this brand new month, a brand new season, i wanted to go beyond celebrating an attitude of gratefulness, not just on Thanksgiving day but really, we should be celebrating thankfulness with every day that we are blessed with a new day to live! today, i wrote up a few everyday things that i am thankful for - and i am super grateful that a few of my friends had their own thankful lists to share!
