Thankful Thursday - comforts of home
This week I am thankful for some of my comforts...washers, dryers, and dishwashers. Several times over the past three years I've had to be without them - when we first moved to Texas (ours were in storage until we found a house to buy), when Hurricane Ike flooded our house, and now my dishwasher is broken (but should be up and running when the repairman comes next week). I know it sounds like a little thing, but when you have to be without them for a while, you really appreciate the fact that they make life so much easier. :) I spend a lot of time with them.

Enjoyed your list. Modern comforts are wonderful!
It's a great thing to stop and be thankful for those little things that are really big things that we can easily take for granted.
Have a great day!

Thanks for being grateful.
These are really things that we need to thank God for but often time we forgot to include them in our list. Not all mommies have these convenience and you are blessed to have them.
Blessings!
OH! Amen! We moved from NJ to PA last May and went from having every single appliance to having almost none and I still have no dishwasher... it certainly does make you really think back on the days when you didn't appreciate it.
it's nice to stop for a while and be grateful to those little things God blessed us with. blessings to you, amanda. ☺
I agree! Life is harder now that we use modern things like washing machines and then they don't work all of a sudden. We do way too much in one day to have to wash by hand or run someplace to wash clothes.
Have a blessed week!
Oooh I know exactly what you mean. Those things might seem petty, but doing without is quite backbreaking! I needed this reminder. Thanks!
