I'm thankful too, Evening Star that your mother survived the heart attack. God is so merciful and kind...

588. time to go through old photos :D
589. God is in control -- and He's the one who loves us most of all.
590. I get to cook Thanksgiving with my daughter tomorrow.

591. for the amazing (!) life of Squanto, kidnapped to Spain, sold as a slave, but redeemed by monks who taught him of God's love and helped him get back home via England where he learned to speak English before returning to America 10 years later. He was instrumental in helping the Pilgrims learn how to survive in this New World because they settled where his Patuxet tribe had once lived (before the Patuxets were wiped out be an epidemic while Squanto was serving in Europe).
 
592. That my family is prepared for Thanksgiving changes.
593. That my grandma hasn't gotten sick.
594. Accidentally getting the third Brotherband book from the library.
595. For the nice weather today while I was walking.
596. For the possibilty of me being able to go to Europe.
597. For people who know how to make a story where everyone doesn't die at the end.
598. For my writing gift.
599. My parents, because they support me in every way they can.
600. For my irrepresible imagination.
 
601. I know it sounds silly, especailly since many people say they are thankful for a job, but I am actually thankful, especially at this time of year, that I am no longer working in retail, and therefor, do not have to deal with the "Black Friday" sales crowd in which people beat each other up for unnecissary items. It also means I don't have to pull myself out of bed at some rediculous hour to go to a mall on what feels like the coldest, darkest night of the year.

604. I'm thankful for all the memories my family and friends created this past Thanksgiving weekend:

605. for my daughter helping me cook the Big Meal for the first time

606. for the gingerbread Ark of the Covenant one of my friends and I made with our children this past Saturday (We don't get to eat it because it is now entered in a gingerbread festival at the Discovery Science Museum). But the leftovers were really yummy!

607. for a chance to play piano for worship service and sing with a praise team

608. for the 16 gals I had over the Sunday after Thanksgiving to celebrate the end of my chemo season with saimin noodles and Christmas crafts
 
Hey, that's great your chemo is done, Benisse! :) And kudos to Eden for joining in the cooking!

609. For the chilly weather that has descended on east Texas today. Feels like Christmas!
 
Thanks Inky; that is the perfect ending for this list for this year. With Advent around the corner (starts tomorrow) I am closing this list till Thanksgiving season next fall.

610. I'm thankful for the One from whom all blessings flow...
