Good job coming up with 100 (!) things!! I can't wait for LOST to come back on!! ;-)
Wow! What a list, Jeannie! You truly have outdone yourself! We have a lot of things in common!
Terrific list. Nice to read some happy news today! And thanks for being my 100th follower. I'm looking forward to checking out more of your posts!
Wow!! Great list, especially shopping on ebay and jordan almonds...mmmm!!!
wonder how long it would take me to come up with 100??!!
Have a great day!
Great list. That had to have taken some time! How many times did you have to stop and get something for Thomas? Hope he is healing well.
You know, I consider myself to be a thankful person but I bet that would be a very difficult task!
I love lists like this. It makes me take a moment and remember things I enjoy too. Thanks for sharing!
Sounds like you have a lot of things in your life that make you happy. :)
I love this little post 100 things jeanie. Ok I am gonna give it a whirl.
Love your list. I love it so much I've made one on my blog. Thanks for sharing.
I have that many things to be grateful for ... but doesn't it take a long time to write it all out? I think it's a good idea though. Maybe next time my kids start complaining I will have them do this 100-grateful list idea!
I like just about everything on that list except hotdogs and seafood:)
These are great! Especially the dill pickles. ;) and I have no idea what Baroque music is.
