Thankful Thursdays (third time's a charm)

On this day, Thursday, November 17th, I am thankful for modern luxuries that I am incredibly lucky to have and that I take advantage of on a daily basis. This would include, but is not limited to:

-good tv
Some old favorites include Friends, Seinfeld (by the way, I typed "sei" and my super smart iPad automatically typed Seinfeld for me. brilliant), Late Night with Jimmy Fallon and Sex and the City. New favorites include New Girl (have you watched this? it's television genius), The Big Bang Theory (I know, I'm kind of late to the game), Little Einsteins and Olivia. (I'm thankful for those last two because they got Paisley out of her Mickey Mouse obsession).

-my electric blanket
It was 63 degrees in my house this morning. That is unacceptable! I guess if I have to put up with another Oklahoma winter, at least my bed will be warm.

-Pinterest
If I need to explain this to you, you obviously aren't on pinterest. I don't know if I should feel bad for you because of what you're missing, or if I should be a little jealous of you because you don't waste hours of your life away looking at delicious food, awesome houses, clever solutions to every day problems, easy DIY ideas and funny pictures of kitty cats. Seriously, get on pinterest and find me. I pin some great stuff.

-My iPad
Because, how else would I be able to feed my pinterest addiction? Except... on the iPad, you can't have a "pin it!" button, so if I want to pin something I'm limited to pinterest only. Is there away to fix this? Can I have both my iPad AND my "pin it!" button?

-Coffee
I realize that coffee is not a "modern luxury," but I'm still thankful for it. I *think* I've mentioned Starbucks in my last two posts?

-My phone
So I can text and send pictures to Nate all day while he is trying to work. He, however, is probably not thankful for that.

-Donuts and the library
Each Tuesday morning, Miss P and I meet April and Andy for donuts at the best little donut shop in Edmond (like I'd tell you which one. we don't want it to become crowded!), which is owned by the nicest Asain ladies who love to see the kids. They even give us a few extra donut holes each time! After that, we head to the library for "lap sit." I'm not sure of what the term "lap sit" means... But we go to it. And it's fun.

-My warm bed, a full pantry and fridge, a nice car, so much laundry that I'm never caught up, fun toys for Paisley, hot baths, blankets and socks and hoodies (I hate winter), a good job, Nathan's great job that allows me to stay home with Paisley, my wonderful family, great friends, the most perfect husband and the most incredibly precious baby girl. I am extremely lucky and very thankful for all the little things that make my life easy.

  1. On the iPhone, you can install the bookmarklet in safari and use it to pin things! Not sure if it works for the iPad ... But it should be under your profile and then under account. Hope it works for you!
