What are some things you are thankful for this year?
The plumbing's been a big one for me this year. During winter (in Australia) the pipe from the meter to the house burst on the Friday night at the beginning of a long weekend. The plumber hooked up a garden hose from the meter so I wasn't completely without water. All I wanted was a hot shower and to be able to flush the toilet without having to use a bucket. I have a greater appreciation for running water now! All the best with your house hunting and congrats on fitting into your skinny jeans!
ReplyDeleteI am thankful for my new niece who was born yesterday and texts and social media for keeping me connected with family to celebrate her birth. I hope you have a delightful and wonderful Thanksgiving!
ReplyDeleteI am ALWAYS thankful for plumbing. Imagine living in an age without safe, drinkable running water and with all the problems that means.
