Borrowing from our US cousins, I decided to do the 30 days of Thankful throughout November. Sometimes it is all too easy to concentrate on what you do not have, instead of what you are thankful for. Every day I posted on both my business and personal facebook pages things I was thankful for. So here it is, from Thursday 1st November (technically I only decided to do it on the 6th, but just back-dated the first 6 posts ;) ) right through to today - Friday 30th November.
30 Days of Thankful - Day One
I am thankful for my very loving and supportive Husband
30 Days of Thankful - Day Two
I am thankful for my wonderfully large, loving, and amazing family - both those that I am lucky to be related to, and those that have adopted me into their family through my husband.
30 Days of Thankful - Day Three
I am thankful for my amazing friends. Without them, I do not know how I would have gotten through the darker parts - you always help me to find the light, and make me smile again.
30 Days of Thankful - Day Four
I am thankful for my gorgeous little doggies. Fellow pet owners will understand just how much love and comfort these furry companions can offer! I have an extra special bond with mine, as each joined our home after a particularly difficult, and painful point in our life.
30 Days of Thankful - Day Five

I am thankful for my drive and determination. The last two years has seen me work hard to build a business that is growing daily and brings me an amazing sense of achievement.
30 Days of Thankful - Day Eleven
I am thankful for the invention of the Internet! It is hard to imagine a world where you are not able to find the answer to anything within seconds! The internet has a big impact on not only my personal life, but my business too!

30 days of thankful - day 16
I am thankful for my love of baking, that was passed from my Nan to me. Most of my fondest Childhood memories are of being her kitchen assistant, helping to whip up tasty bakes :)

I am thankful for the kindness and support of others. It never ceases to amaze me just how far people will go to help in times of distress.
30 days of thankful - day 18
I am thankful for music, I find that I can usually always lift my mood with the right kind of song. The talent of others never fails to amaze me.

I am thankful for the gift of laughter. No matter how glum I feel, my mood can always be lifted with a fit of the giggles!
30 days of thankful - day 20
I am thankful for chocolate! For as long as I can remember, I have been obsessed with the rich, creamy stuff! And because the Cocoa bean is natural, I can kid myself it's good for me :)
30 days of thankful - day 21
I am thankful for amazing TV programmes and films. There is nothing quite like being completely immersed in the latest episodes of True Blood or Dexter!
30 days of thankful - day 22
I am thankful for tea! Yes, I know that sounds random, but I am obsessed with the golden stuff! Nice and strong but extra milky, with one sugar if I'm feeling naughty ;)
30 days of thankful - day 23
I am thankful to the suffragettes and other Womens movements - without them, I would still be expected to stay home and look after the house, with no say into how it was run.
30 days of thankful - day 24
I am thankful for hope. In my darkest times, I sometimes fear I have lost all hope. And yet a little ray always seems to shine through :)
30 days of thankful - day 25
I am thankful for my sense of humor. Perhaps a little on the dark/wicked side, it has helped me to get through many a scrape!

30 days of thankful - day 28
I am thankful for technology - I am able to browse the web from the car, make friends with people from all around the globe, connect with a small business in America and even complete a masterpiece painting with just my finger! (okay and a tablet/ipad) - Invent me a hover board, and I will be in heaven >.<
30 days of thankful - day 29
I am thankful for the beauty of nature. Nothing like a lovely scenic walk to clear the cobwebs!
30 days of thankful - day 30
I am thankful for the very act of being thankful! Too many people do not appreciate all that they have in their lives. I am proud that I have stopped to focus on the good, rather than the bad.
