My Car Holds Ten Thankfuls!
This week's twist on a thankful list comes to you from my car. Here are Ten Things of Thankful for items I keep in my car:
1. My movie blanket. Haven't been to a movie in over a year, but when the theater re-opens, I will be ready! What do you mean, you don't have a movie blanket? This a terrific item to take into a movie theater, because movie theaters are always cold and if I'm watching a scary movie, I can hide under it.
2. A backscratcher.

| Telescoping backscratcher = da bomb |
3. Disposable gloves. Originally because of Covid and forever after because I never want to put gasoline in my car again without one on my hand.
4. Face masks.
5. Hamilton soundtrack.
6. Tire gauge.
7. Scissors.
8. Reusable shopping bags for going to Aldi.
9. A hoodie.
10. Straws and napkins.
What's in your car for which you can be thankful? Got snacks? What else? Write up your Ten Things of Thankful and join us this weekend!

Bookish Thankfuls
You know, thankful lists don't necessarily have to be centered on your week. Here's an idea: name ten books you are thankful that you read. I'll go first:
Are You There God? It's Me, Margaret by Judy Blume
Charlotte's Web by E.B. White
Mrs. Piggle Wiggle by Betty MacDonald
Little House In The Big Woods by Laura Ingalls Wilder
And Ladies Of The Club by Helen Hooven Santmyer
A Is For Alibi by Sue Grafton
A Tree Grows In Brooklyn by Betty Smith
The Egg And I by Betty MacDonald
A Bargain For Frances by Russell Hoban
Ramona The Pest by Beverly Cleary
Eight of the ten on this list led me to other books by the same author, so these ten titles represent dozens of books, and a little bit of each of these have helped to make me who I am now.

April Is The Cruelest Month
Here are ten things to be thankful for in April:
Daylight Savings Time comes back.
The grass turns green.
Tulips.
Lilacs.
Peeps.
Reese's Peanut Butter Eggs
Sunny days.
Can start wearing capris again.
Ditto flip flops.
Snow.
Wait, what?
Thankful for snow? In APRIL?
When you teach 2-3 year olds, a surprise snow is a fun opportunity to bundle up, go out on the playground, and catch snow flakes on your tongue (or, as a few kids did, just eat snow right off the playground equipment with or without using your hands).
There are thankfuls in the smallest of moments. Find yours and and link up with us. The Ten Things of Thankful blog hop is now live!

Back In The Saddle
I'm baaaaaack!
It was a lovely wedding, just like a fairy tale.
And I'm now a mother-in-law - eep!
And I'm (mostly) rested up and ready for the thankfuls, so bring 'em on! The link is now live!

Carry On, Carry On
Your Ten Things of Thankful Hostess with the Leastest is going to be mostly out-of-pocket this weekend, as my son is getting married - eep!
So do me a solid and carry on. Write your thankfuls. Link them up. Visit every post that is linked up to our hop and comment. I'll pop in if and when I can.
I appreciate every single one of you who is a part of this hop. Our numbers may come and go, but the core value of finding the thankfuls in life remain constant.

April's Sweet Month
The following Mother Goose rhyme was originally published ca. 1843. The lack of little lambs in my April is a little sad, but other than that, this verse sums up the month fairly accurately:
In April's sweet month
When the leaves 'gin to spring
Little lambs skip like fairies
And birds build and sing.
If I DID have a little lamb that could skip like a fairy, it would surely make MY thankful list. What makes yours? Write them down, link them up. The Ten Things of Thankful blog hop is live!
