I’m trotting out (get it? trotting? turkey trot?) last year’s photo because I’m getting such a late start today on Hump Day Happy. Blame Rex and an unplanned visit to the vet. (He’ll be fine.)
I’m changing things up a little for today. If you will please comment and tell me something you’re thankful for, I’ll find a random selection in the happy book to give you in return.
Thanksgiving is one of my favorite holidays, and I’ll be spending it with people and dogs I love–can’t ask for better than that. I hope all of you who celebrate the holiday, as well as my friends across the globe, have the kind of love and friendship in your lives that I’m fortunate enough to enjoy.
Regarding my own happiness, this dress and wrap dazzle me. It’s a fantastic look for her.

I am thankful for a puppy that gives me tons of doggie sugar, and chocolate parfait Nips.
Dash is thankful for peanut butter num nums, apple yum yums, and belly rubs
For you: “flower-decked balconies”
For Dash: “the ‘snuggle right in’ feeling”
A very happy Thanksgiving to you both.
by the way, at walgreens yesterday I saw they made Snuggies for DOGS!
We both like our get happy’s … hope you have a wonderful thanksgiving!
I am thankful for my love, my family, my friends, my dogs; the fact I found enough courage to talk to my Mom before she died and most importantly – being exactly where I’m at. I’m an extraordinarily lucky woman. (Although I do wish I could wear the dress pictured above as well.) š She’s so purdy.
She is pretty, and so are you!
Happy Thanksgiving to you, Allen, and the puppers, and from the book, you get “writing about whatever you think of (things you wish, say, dream); observing people and writing down what you think they think.”
I wish they’d been holding hands in that picture. I love a First Lady with class.
Whoever shot this photo caught a great moment with the two of them. In honor of them, I chose from the book “standing next to someone you love” for you, too. Happy Thanksgiving!
I also meant to say – Shelly O has class!
=)
I am thankful for my mother, with whom I am currently planning our biggest Christmas Cookie Bake-Off to date.
Have fun, and I wish you and your entire family a happy Thanksgiving. From the book, I chose “the first blush of falling in love” for you.
Aw, shucks.
Happy Thanksgiving to you
Michelle looks absolutely stunning in that dress. It’s beautiful.
We don’t celebrate Thanksgiving here, and in a way I’m thankful that there’s one less family gathering to worry about. š
Re: Happy Thanksgiving to you
That counts! A happy day to you, and from the book, I chose “a romantic holiday with one special person.” Redeem that at the time of your choosing. š
Re: Happy Thanksgiving to you
That sounds lovely. Thank you!
Iām thankful for a mom who would do anything for me no mater the cost. That’s the opening line in this years “Wallowing in Gratitude” post.
Glad Rex’ll be fine.
Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family, Gary. And from the book, I chose “being attracted to someone when you least expect it” for you.
thankful
I’d have to say thanks for LiveJournal, since I obviously wouldn’t been able to interact with such interesting people!
(Also, Thanks to the BBC for Doctor Who, Red Dwarf and Hitchikers Guide to the Galaxy)
Re: thankful
I second being thankful for LJ and my LJ friends. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. And from the book, for you, I chose “a Saturday morning with cartoons, relaxing in pajamas with a bowl of cereal.”
I’m thankful for kitchen tables, around which we’ll gather tomorrow to catch up on our lives.
A kitchen table can be the best place on earth. =) Happy Thanksgiving to you, Kelly, and your families. And from the book, I chose “snatched sidewalk kisses” for you.
thanks, Becky, have a wonderful Thanksgiving!
Thank you.
Thankful for friends and family! : )
Happy Thanksgiving to you and all of yours. =) Of course, it was easy to pick out “an authentic, artistic, and aesthetic life” for you. (HA! Thought you’d get some waffles, didn’t you?)
YES DAMMIT
So much for your Thanksgiving spirit, Grumpy McGrumperson. Fine.
“waffles with berries and fresh fruit: peaches, nectarines, apricots, and bananas”
haha thank you. : )
You always get your way.
screw the kisses, I’ll have what he’s having!
That dress is stunning!
You didn’t ask for anything, but I thought you and your family might enjoy “your own private slice of beach.”
Michelle Dress = Amazing!
I thought you might like “a song brightening your mood.” Happy Thanksgiving. =)
I’m thankful to all the great people in my life, husband, family, friends and also the 2 little girls at work who manage to make me laugh every day. š
From the book, I found you “spending a whole night reading, sometimes even alternating books.” And since I know you like to do that, I’ll add, “and getting to sleep in the next day as long as you want.”
Thank you! Couldn’t be better… š
Now that the meal is over, I have to say that I’m thankful for a husband who willingly cleans up after I’ve done the cooking.
That IS a good thing!
From the book, I found “exploring, taking chances, being adventurous and spontaneous” for you–but then, you already do that. So I added “a swimming pool at the hotel” because that evokes happy memories for me and I hope it does for you. =)
Perfect!
Thanks, Becky!
You’re welcome. =)
Wow, I’m so far behind, Thanksgiving “Day” has long gone, but thanksgiving can be on any day, so . . . I’m thankful for freedom.
I like the way you think. And from the book, I found you “jumping into bed with a good book.”
Hee hee! My favourite moment of every day!!!!
