What’s on the daughter’s iPod: Love the Way You Lie by Eminem with Rihanna
I didn’t think I’d have time to post today, but the turkey is in the oven and we’re waiting for when the rest goes into production. My youngest is doing her first holiday meal, so we traveled to share the day with her and with my folks.
But I wanted to share the day with you, too. You’re all a big part of my life, so it wouldn’t be right to let this time go by without saying thank you for being part of my life and enriching it so beautifully every day.
Here’s what I’m thankful for:
– My writer friends, virtual and face-to-face
– 169 followers and all who lurk (say hello!)
– The ability to live my dream and write for a living
– The talent and skill to do so
– My husband, who surprises me daily with his displays of affection and humor and devotion
– My kids and step-kids who have great souls
– My parents, who always supported us emotionally and financially
– My hometown and dear friends there, who shaped me into a person with strong convictions and stronger devotion to friendships
What are you thankful for today?

Your words, Lori, are total inspiration to this old guy who is not a freelance writer but just someone who enjoys your candid thoughts and ideas most every day of the year. I've been following you for a couple years now. Happy Thanksgiving to you and yours. Chuck
lol, I cheated and did a post today on just this. (Cooking a pie… well, put a pie together and am waiting for it to cook.)
Love you
I'm thankful that my sister is asleep on the other couch. I haven't had family around for Thanksgiving in four years, so it's a real treat. I'm also thankful for how blessed my life has been with my wonderful husband, family and friends. Happy Thanksgiving!
