Happy Thanksgiving!

Last week, local Colorado painter, Stacey Peterson tagged me with the “7 Unusual Things About Me” meme and since I’ve already done this at least twice, I’m twisting the rules just a tad.
- Put a link in your posting to the person who tagged you.
- List 7 things for which I’m thankful.
So here’s a list of people, things and events for which I’m thankful:
- I am grateful for my husband, daughter, mom, in-laws and extended family who I love very much and who support me unconditionally (most of the time).
- My friends in both real life and virtually – our connections mean so much to me.
- My current life situation that has allowed me to explore motherhood, clay and art without having to work full time at another job.
- My teachers past and present – it is truly a gift and calling to pass on knowledge.
- My dogs Zuzu and Danzig who give me so much joy, amusement, occasional irritation and who greet me with great enthusiasm whether I’ve been gone for 1 minute or 1 week.
- Opportunities and the freedom to do whatever I want – it really does feel like the possibilities are endless.
- Having a roof over my head, food on my plate, clay on my wheel.
I know these seem really general, but when it comes down to it these represent the core of why I’m thanking my lucky stars this holiday.
- I am supposed to tag 7 other bloggers at the end of my post and to let them know – but I’m not. If you feel inclined, feel free to add 7 Things You’re Thankful For on your bloggie.
For my US compatriots - Happy Thanksgiving! For my international visitors, I am sending you Thanksgiving wishes in the spirit of our national holiday.
