TTT - All About Being Thankful

The top 10 weekly meme used to be hosted by The Broke and the Bookish they  handed over the reins to ThatArtsyReaderGirl who can be found HERE.  Each week she will focus on lists which cover various topics related to books and reading. 

This week is a freebie topic related to Thanksgiving and being thankful.  In the past I've done posts mentioning some of my favorite bloggers.  I have since discovered a few more and will be adding them at the end of this list.  I will also link the previous ones.  However, I also want to make a list of things I'm thankful in general.  So you get extra this week!



THINGS I'M THANKFUL FOR THIS YEAR
1.  A wonderful husband
2.  The best pets in the world
3. Family - The ones I like...and that I've had the chance to get so close to my Gpa the past few years.
4.  Bloggers - I've met so many wonderful people and I love interacting with you guys through comments, tweets, instagram etc.  You guys are the greatest and I can always count on you to bring a smile to my face.
5. A job where I get to help people
6. An almost done kitchen
7. Blessings in disguise - although I was recently t-boned, through medical appointments I found an issue I was unaware of and can now address.  Silver lining folks!
7. My Book BFF  Stormi - we've spent endless hours messaging and chatting about books and life in general and I can't imagine her not in my life.

BLOGGERS I'M THANKFUL FOR
Past blogger appreciation posts HERE HERE HERE HERE and HERE.

Katie @ Just Another Girl and her Books
Katie has some of the best book hauls ever and usually a lot of them she found on sale.  Plus she host a great Christmas readathon in December.

AJ @ Read All the Things
I love the variety of posts AJ has and the different genres she reads.  She is also a fellow dog-lover.

Lark @ Lark Writes...
Another great blogger who reads a variety of genres.  She and I seem to read quite a few of the same things.

Jan @ Notes From a Readerholic
Jan has great taste in books and reads a lot of the books I'm interested in.  She recently had surgery and I'm really hoping she is feeling better this Thanksgiving.

Mary @ Stacking My Bookshelves
I just discovered Mary earlier this year but she is already one of my faves?

HAPPY THANKSGIVING EVERYONE!

  2. What a great list. My husband and dogs would top my list too (I guess I would have to throw my kids in there somewhere as well). I am glad to hear that you were able to discover your medical issue. You are right in that there is usually a silver lining if you look for it.

  5. I'm thankful that I don't need to live out on the streets at this time of year. It is freezing today and I was only out this afternoon for twenty minutes. I have a warm house and big duvet that I'm very grateful for plus food to eat and my dad for company.

  13. I hope you and the hubs had a wonderful Thanksgiving. Yay for grandpa! Now as I'm getting older I have a better appreciation for spending time with older family members. I am hoping the younger members of my family will want to spend time with me, too, ha ha. 👍✨

    I hope whatever was found during your medical appointments gets resolved. Sending good energies. 💜

    Here's to the book community. Cheers! 🙌🙌🙌

    1. Yes, it does become more about family as we get older I think. And yes, cheers to the book community (should you bring the wine or me?)
