Thankful Thursday

Happy Thursday!

Normally I would apologize for taking a hiatus from blogging for almost a week, but I have made a decision to stop apologizing. No reason in feeling bad for living my life, and stepping away from my blog for a bit. Good idea, Yes?!?

We have finally finished the stair railing system that goes up to the second floor in our addition! It is so nice to be able to walk upstairs without an overly irrational fear of falling over the edge. I am so Thankful that is done!

We have also finished painting the walls in the downstairs of the addition. Just a few doors to finish painting – along with some touch up on the ceiling, and we are done painting the addition (and I have no earthly idea how wall paint got on the ceiling, seriously, none) I am so Thankful that we are one step closer to taking a good looooong break from working on the addition!

I am so very Thankful that I was able to find an open window in the house the other day after E Nut locked myself, Wing Nut, and Little Nut Nut out of the house. Yes, Wee Nut and Honey Nut were locked in the house while we were locked out, but Thankfully they were in their highchairs having a snack in front of Blue’s Clues and had no idea that there was the very real possibility that they were going to be sitting there for over an hour until their father got home. Thankfully, Little Nut Nut was easily tossed into a small window, and after getting distracted by a few things on the way to the door, he eventually let us in.

As always, I am Thankful for my happy, healthy, wild little beasties that run around my house all day long driving me crazy, I am Thankful that we have a roof over our heads and for our wonderfully supportive group of friends and family and all the ways they help us.

So what are you Thankful for today? It is so easy to join in and tell everyone.

Here is how Thankful Thursdays works:

1. Post your Thankful Thoughts on your blog. Somewhere in your post please mention The Nut House and/or ourhappynuthouse.com so that your friends, family and visitors know where to find other Thankful Thoughts. You can also grab my Thankful Thursdays banner and link to that. Once you have done that you can come back here and add your post to MckLinky.

Not everyone has a blog, so:

2. If you don’t have a blog, you can leave a Thankful Thoughts comment in the comment section.

3. You can show your Thankful Thoughts any way you like, as a list, a story, a vlog, as one word, one sentence or just a picture.
