Thanksgiving

Thanksgiving: thanksĀ·givĀ·ing
Pronunciation: tha[ng](k)s-'gi-vi[ng] also 'tha[ng](k)s-"
Function: noun
1 : the act of giving thanks
2 : a prayer expressing gratitude
3 : a public acknowledgment or celebration of divine goodness

Things I am thankful for (in no specific order):
  • My family - all 8 kitties, 2 parents and one wonderful, patient and kind husband
  • Having the financial ablility to take care of our kitties when an emergency comes up (like Cocoa's liver)
  • The opporunities that I have been giving, in paricular the opporunity to travel to so many different places and experience so many things
  • My marriage - in a way that goes beyond just having a great husband, but how well we work together to have a great marriage
  • To have a job that provides such good insurance
  • That my heart arrythmia wasn't something serious
  • That my kitties all get along (for the most part)
  • That we have found a good stain remover for the kitty vomit on the carpet (though I would be even more thankful if they learned to always vomit on the tile)
  • My health - sounds crazy considering the problems I have had, but I am so thankful that they seem to be in the past
  • Our church and the great people we have met there
  • Our veternarian office - I couldn't imagine trusting my babies to anyone else
  • My "virtual" friends - you know who you are!
So what are you thankful for today?

What's the good stain remover for kitty vomit? I could use something like that for the doggy pee.

You KNOW you are one of the "virtual" friends... though e-friends I guess would be a much better and more accurate word.

The stain remover is Woolite Oxy Deep. That stuff ROCKS! It's in a blue bottle with a red spray top. It is awesome. When our neighbor was watching our kitties in the Spring, she used some of our stuff to clean up some vomit - she said after she left our house she went out and got her some for her kitty messes. The stuff is that good.
