One Writer's Thankful Thursday List

On Thankful Thursday, August 14, 2008 this writer has ten things to be thankful for.


  1. Rich and strong black coffee sipped for a white coffee cup before dawn
  2. A telephone hook-up to the internet that holds long enough, especially when tab browsing, to get work done online
  3. Her computer located in the living room next to the picture window, so that she can look up periodically from her work and watch the morning sky turn from ebony to pale pre-dawn white to silk blue
  4. A Long lasting light bulb illuminating the hall leading to the bathroom
  5. A radio alarm clock that goes off at 4:00 AM, which is one hour after she gets up, playing pleasant music early in the morning
  6. Money deposited into her PayPal account so that she does not have to wait for a snail mail check to take to the bank
  7. Surveys that pay in gift points so that she can order things like portable memory cards once she builds up enough points
  8. A blog in which to make a pre-dawn entry, so that she can wake up her muse
  9. Exceeding her minimum word count goal nine days in a row
  10. Frozen veggies, that she can eat right out of the package, after she defrosts them, with either a little salt or salad dressing

Gratitude expressed
in the early morning
gently awakes the soul
and the day.
