Ten Things of Thankful: Bringing 2018 to a Close

Photo: Ten Things of Thankful spelled out in floral letters 

Welcome again to the blog hop that focuses on being thankful! Although we are fairly consistent on meeting weekly, after this week's link-up, we will take a break on December 21 and 28. Please take note of the things you are thankful for, though, and we will resume on January 4, 2019. 

I wish all of you a very merry Christmas season, and a happy New Year!

For those of you arriving here before the link is open, I apologize. The Inlinkz site changed a bit, and I can't seem to edit for an earlier link-up starting time this week! Hopefully I'll figure it out before January 4th! Thanks for your patience with me.

Happy December! I have a question for you: would you like to see the TToT continue the last two weeks of this month, or should we take a break on Dec. 21 and 28, and start again in the new year? Please comment below!

Nighttime falls early now, and as the darkness descends, I appreciate the shelter that my warm house provides. What are you thankful for during this time of year?

If you live in the United States, there is a good chance you are stuffed today, but regardless of where you live or how much you ate yesterday, I hope you are filled with thankfulness. Come join us as we gather together to share in our gratitude!

With the United States' Thanksgiving holiday fast approaching, now is a great time to turn off the news, put down the paper, step away from the negativity of the world, and contemplate the many reasons we have to be thankful.

Happy November! During this busy time of year, I hope you will pause to reflect upon those things for which you are thankful. Better yet, I hope you will express your gratitude.

Recognizing and expressing thanks does make us feel more alive. Please join us, and invite others to do the same. Regardless of what is happening around us, we can find a greater measure of peace as we reflect on the good.

After taking a ten-day break from social media, I am returning to the Ten Things of Thankful blog refreshed and recommitted to maintaining a better balance in my life. Thank you to all who joined the blog hop last week; I was excited to catch up on your posts, and glad to see a new participant, too!

Be sure to visit the links below and invite your friends to join us!

Ten Things of Thankful: Unspoken and Otherwise

I'm composing this post quickly on October 6th, and scheduling it to publish on the 12th. Some of you know that I am a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. Tonight, at the women's session of General Conference, President Nelson challenged us to take a 10-day fast from social media. I'm starting my fast on the morning of Sunday, October 7th. 

The church certainly recognizes the great tool technology is, but it can also be a great distraction, and I'm looking forward to seeing how my life is different in the 10 days I'm off. 

You are certainly welcome to join me in the break, but I also wanted to make sure the link to the TToT was up for those who want to participate. 

I'm thankful for you, and I look forward to linking up with you again after the fast!

Ten Things of Thankful: October is Here!

Aren't you thankful for Octobers? Looking out my window right now, I see red leaves of sumac, and just-starting-to-yellow aspen leaves. The clouds above the mountains are dark, and if the weather forecast is to be believed, we will have more thunder and lightening and rain tonight--probably right as this post is published. I love the coziness of autumn.

Whether or not you enjoy this season, I hope you will join us in another week of the Ten Things of Thankful blog hop. Read what the other bloggers have posted, comment, and share in this thank-fest! 😊

Sometimes it is hard to see summer go, but I hope that you are experiencing the eye-opening thankful heart. Gratitude really does change one's perspective, as those who have joined us in this weekly blog hop can attest.

Ten Things of Thankful: 9/21/2018

While looking online for quotes about thankfulness, I came across this one:

“Every morning, I wake up and think about 10 different things I’m thankful for, and I continue to spread that love throughout the day, always visualizing, meditating, and growing.” – Shameik Moore

I'm not familiar with the actor--grandmas are probably not his target audience--but I thought his sentiment tied perfectly into this blog's purpose. 

What are you thankful for today? (And if anyone knows Shameik Moore, feel free to invite him to this blog hop!)

The news this week has been filled with reflective reports of the anniversary of 9/11,  speculative dialogue about the amount of rain and damage that Hurricane Florence will bring, as well as coverage of the latest political tweets. No matter what is going on around us, though, we can find things to be thankful for. Won't you join us?

Last weekend might have been the traditional hurrah to summer, but the season isn't officially over yet. Regardless of whether you are a summer-holder-onner, or a autumn-welcomer, there are plenty of reasons to be thankful. Come tell us about your trip to the beach, how much you love all things pumpkin, or anything else that you are thankful for!

Ten Things of Thankful: 08/31/2018

It's Labor Day Weekend here in the US. Though the calendar still says fall is yet to come, traditionally the first weekend in September signals the end of the carefree days of summer. Whatever the season, being thankful is always in style.

It's the second-to-last Friday in August; there is plenty of time left in the month to come pop in at the Ten Things of Thankful! (And even though we're calling August our reunion month, we all know that anytime someone wants to check in and say hello, we will be happy to see them!)

What are you thankful for this week?

Ten Things of Thankful: 8/17/2018

I'm late! I'm late! I woke up this morning and realized I didn't get the link-up posted in time. I hope you forgive me; last night John and I took John's parents out to dinner to celebrate their 60th wedding anniversary, and I completely forgot about getting this TToT party started. 

It's still celebration month here at the Ten Things of Thankful, though, as we continue our reunion month. If you've ever linked up with us in the past, please pop in and say "hi!" again, and if you've never joined, this is a great time to do so.

Ten Things of Thankful: 8/10/2018

Our reunion month continues, with an open invite to all who have ever participated to come back and join us, as well as an invitation to any newcomers to write a thankful post and link it up. Let's get this party started! :-)

Ten Things of Thankful: 8/3/2018

August already! Today I had a cashier tell me, "I feel like the year is over. Once July ends, the rest of the year is just a blur." We still have some summer yet, so let's have a reunion! If you've ever participated in the Ten Things of Thankful blog hop, we invite you back! Don't worry--we aren't asking for a weekly commitment (though of course you're always welcome)--but we'd love to hear a little update from you. If you've never participated in the TToT, we'd love to meet you, too! So put on those name tags, people, and introduce yourself. This is a no-pressure group, and you're invited!

Welcome! Last week we had some bloggers linking up with us for the first time. One of the things I like the most about this hop is the community and friendships that have developed through the years. Please feel free to jump in and comment on the posts--this is a welcoming place!

I hope you are all enjoying July, and staying comfortable.

I came across the following poem quoted in a  talk by Henry B. Eyring:

Some murmur when the sky is clear

And wholly bright to view,

If one small speck of dark appear

In their great heaven of blue:

And some with thankful love are filled,

If but one streak of light,

One ray of God’s good mercy, gild

The darkness of their night.

How interesting it is that gratitude is not dependent on circumstance. No matter how your week has gone, we would love to hear from you. Please join with us and share your clear sky moments or your rays of light in darkness.

Whether or not you live in the United States and celebrated Independence Day, I hope you had a nice 4th of July week. Thankfulness is not dependent on citizenship, and I appreciate reading posts written from people from all over the globe. Come join in!

TToT: 6/29/2018

I hope you are all enjoying summer (or winter, depending on your hemisphere!) I'm spending some time with my daughter now, so I might be late replying to your posts, but I promise I will read and comment as soon as I can!

Hello! As Josie Two Shoes announced last week, she has decided to step down from hosting this blog hop. She has done an excellent job, and I'm sure I speak for all of us in saying that we loved her detailed comments on our posts. She gave this link up its own blog, and worked hard behind the scenes to encourage everyone to join with us in expressing gratitude each week. 

I'm not Josie Two Shoes, but I hope that I can follow her (and Lizzi, the original founder of this blog hop) in providing a welcome place for all participants. 

I'm thankful for YOU!

AN IMPORTANT ANNOUNCEMENT! 

As you've no doubt noticed, I haven't been an active presence here for awhile. Life has been keeping me otherwise occupied and I haven't had the time, energy, or desire to spend much time blogging. I don't feel like I'm giving TToT the attention it deserves. I've been doing the linkup for 72 weeks now, and the time has come to pass it on. Our friend and fellow blogger Kristi at Thankful Me has graciously volunteered to take over as administrator of this blog and our Facebook page effective this coming week, and I know she will do an amazing job for us!  

I'll still be dropping by from time to time to link up a post, and I'm always just an email away if you want to say hi! :-)  My sincere thanks go out to each and every one of you who participate regularly in the TToT,  and who have so graciously supported me in my efforts here. I have loved doing it!

This week's TToT link-up will open shortly after midnight (Central Time) on Thursday night, and will remain open until Tuesday night, so you have plenty of time to work on your post.

Please visit as many of the links as possible, sharing your thoughts is what this group is all about; and PLEASE check back next week for new links that were added later, those folks will appreciate your comments too!

Thank you for your part in making Ten Things of Thankful such a wonderful experience!

Welcome to Ten Things of Thankful!

We gather here each weekend to share our posts about the things we are thankful for in our lives, and sometimes just to report that we've survived a difficult week; when we start focusing on the positives and the silver linings, we are able see that life is good. We also encourage each other by sharing pieces of our own journey. The people who participate in TToT are a truly awesome bunch from all age groups and all walks of life; I hope you'll join us and invite your blog friends to do the same, everyone is welcome!
