Hi! Comments are now closed for this post so we can prepare them for the drawing in the Monster Giveaway! Thank you for participating!
Even though the last two days were a gigantic suck-o-rama, I realized I have so much for which I’m thankful!
I am thankful that Tuesday night after the Suckfest began, Chilly took us to McDonalds for dinner so I wouldn’t have to drag myself into the kitchen in the midst of my despair. I am grateful that during the dinner conversation, the word “Automatic” came up so that Chilly and I could then say…”It’s systematic…..It’s Hyyyy-dro-matic….Why! It’s Greased Lightin’!!!” And then we broke into the whole song and dance right in the middle of McD’s. Again, my kids were completely mortified…mission accomplished!
I am grateful that she didn’t show up in my bathroom this morning….(for you newbies, go here if you hate PMS…)
I am thankful that I live 40 miles from Nogales, Mexico because there have been sightings of the Chupacabra down there…{{{shudder}}}....I know this because my son made me watch "Animal Planet's Lost Tapes" and they said so....
I am grateful for YIKES Toy Store in Tucson because they have fantabulous toys and gifts. (Remember those Kissy Bandaids? They came from YIKES!) If you’re ever in Tucson, go check them out!
I am thankful for Obnoxious SAHM for including me in her Sunday Spotlight! Go read her awesome blog!!! She just started a fabulous Mom's group...go over and check it out! I am a proud member!!!
I am grateful for the Blonde Duck for sharing this awesome award with me! Go visit her too! If you like pie, delightful stories and cute puppies, this is a must read blog! (Can you say S'more Pie???)
I am thankful for all of my fabulous bloggy friends, old and new, who have been so loving and supportive! You’re the best! If I haven’t formally introduced myself to you yet at your blog, I promise I will soon! Then you’ll probably want to change your blog address because of my relentless stalking!
I am grateful for Kristina P and her Snuggie wearin’ blog…She is a blog super hero! She makes me spit my coffee all over my monitor all the time…hey…maybe my laptop drowned! (just kiddin’!) My poor Precious is probably cold and lonely at the Geek hospital. I bet she's dreaming of a Snuggie right now....sniffle sniffle...
I am thankful for Jamie over at Stampin Mom and her awesome Etsy shop! To celebrate more giveaway madness, I am offering another opportunity for an entry! Scooty on over to Jamie’s shop and come back and tell me what you like! Poof! Another entry!
I am thankful that you have all been so enthusiastic about my giveway, that I’ll will be hosting one on a monthly basis! Now they won’t have 20 prizes, but I’ll make sure they’re interesting!
If you haven’t entered the giveaway yet, go here!
Go get your gratitude on, my friends and enjoy your day!
Dawn (pretend it's my fancy signature....)

But I'm stalking you.
What a conundrum!!
Still having good thoughts for your computer...I'll be back in the morning when I can really look around at Jamie's.
I just wanted to be first :-) Sweet computer dreams. Em
Now that that's out of the way.
I LOVE Grease. I randomly break out into song (usually 'look at me, I'm Sandra Dee...) and get insane looks from my husband, but I don't care. I <3 you AND Chilly! My son's only 10mos. old but boy-oh-boy do I have years of embarrasing him ahead of me!
Loved Stampin Mom's shop....LOVED the scrabble tile charms! You always have the cutest things to share...thanks always for that.
Here's to a speedy recovery for your bestie (aka Mr. Laptop)
P.S. be on the look out for that pesky Chupacabra!!!
P.S. This was a great list of things to be Thankful for! I LIKED IT!
It was hard to decide on just one item. I think the Life card/tag or the Hearts and Blooms Gift Tags or Journalling Spots - set of 6 would be my top picks.
Love ya, Muah
I love the Whimsical Fairy - Domino Magnet, it's too cute. Did I comment on the right post?
When I saw the pics in your post, I got excited for you because I thought you had your computer back! :( I'm sorry it's still at the Dr. but I'm glad you got to check in! I'm going to steal your Thankful Thursday thing too, I think! I need a prompt tonight! I Loved your McDonald's story too! Lol! Sorry I rambled a bit here! Hope you have a good Thursday :)
Jamie :-)
Damn, we might be old.
Do our kids even know what Grease is?
I'm counting the days until your Precious is home with you. And I love you even more now for bustin' a move in the middle of MickeyD's and embarassing your kids :) Nicely done....
And I have a giveaway on my blog today (although it doesn't really compare to your an ANY level!). Come check it out :)
Embarrassing ones child is amazing! Keep it up!
I have to say that I love the Vintage Inspired Glittery Sparrow Gift tag - White thick lace, Red Velvet and Tiffany Blue satin ribbon and Bling. :D
Love the A little bird told me...tree card.
p.s. by the way ... i am an avid watcher of The Lost Tapes... so freakin' awesome!!!
I love your blog :)
Okay and for my entry into the blog: The scabble tile pendants are my favorite. All of 'em. Especially the hooty hoo owl & the red flower. And the owl stamp. Yes, you've created a hooty hoo lovin' monster. Monster I tell you!!!
Luvs to you pieces and enjoyed our chat this morning!!
xoxoxoxx
Would you be shocked to hear that I like her scrabble tiles with owls on them? ;)
I'm glad that you hijacked your parents computer! And I hope Precious well be better soon!
And watch out for the Chupacabra! Scary stuff!
So where is the midpoint between AZ and MI? Let's find it!
Good thankful list.
I love Scrabble Tile Pendant - Green and Pink!
Take care Dawn, your giveaway is going great!
I'm sorry you are having to hijack computers to be able to post stuff. I hope things start looking up soon!
Have a great day!
Where the hell is my drink???
I was over at StampinMom's shop forever. I love all her embellishments--especially the bright flowers and the scallops. It makes me want to start scrapbooking again...wait...okay, the urge has passed now. BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I do love her cards though-- they are so pretty.
So you're in the S. Arizona area? I lived in Phoenix (and it's sub cities) for 7 years! Loved the sun, hated the traffic! ;)
Beware of that goat sucker!
Even in the midst of sorrow and angst, you can find things to be thankful for! My hero.
On to Stampin' Mom - since I often THINK I'm a goddess, my fav is the Sea Goddess Wrap Bracelet!
I hope you get your precious back soon. ANd OMG you are nuts breaking out into song in the middle of Mcy D's! I LOVE it! It is our job as parents to humiliate our children a couple times a month! *evil laugh*
Oh, and Kristina P has a bit of blog envy with you? WOW is that not a compliment! She is hilarious! Good job, my friend.

I am glad you got your precious back, how hilarious is it that the Geek Squad posed for pictures?
THAT is pretty freakin funny...
I love that you have links to cool places like this! So helpful!
