Thursday Thirteen Thanksgiving Edition

November 25, 2009 on 10:41 pm | In ERD, Uncategorized | 10 Comments

In no particular order, I’m thankful for…

1) Employment.

2) My husband, even though it irritates the hell out of me when he looks over at what I’m typing.

3) Elise, who is wonderful, a friend I’m glad I found.

4) The editors who’ve believed in my work and given me an opportunity to share it.

5) My mother’s health, which has improved rather than declined over the past year.

6) Victoria Dahl, for Molly and Lori (and Ben and Quinn).

7) Carolyn Jewel, for Xia and Alexandrine.

Yes, I do consider wonderful books something to be thankful for and not to be taken for granted.

8 ) Romance Divas, a community of good people.

9) My family, by blood and by marriage.

10) The opportunity I had this past summer to attend RWA’s National Convention.

11) My house.

12) My health, which is pretty darn good.

13) My continued interest in writing.

And a bonus: I’m very thankful to have thirteen people, places and things to list.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone.

7. Thanks for sharing your list – but do you really think you needed to justify your gratitude for books? *tsk*
