#30DaysofThanks Thankful Thursday Link-up #1

November 7, 2013 by Amanda R DeWitt

Thanks to all of the lovely blends who have been participating in my #30daysofthanks challenge where I have challenged myself and you all to focus each day on one thing you are thankful for in the month of November!

30 Days of Thanks challenge on Diary of a Semi-Health Nut

I wanted to give a special shout-out this week to two ladies who have been extra supportive of this challenge: Heather from Better with Veggies and Lauren from Sweat the Sweet Stuff.

Some of the high-lights from the #30DaysofThanks on social media include:

@SemiHealthNut Day 1: Thankful to have such great #blends to inspire & motivate me! #30DaysOfThanks

Day 5: I’m thankful that when something breaks, I can replace it. I know not everyone can do that! #30DaysOfThanks @semihealthnut โ€” Heather Blackmon (@betterwithveg) November 6, 2013

Day 7: Thankful for being able to park in a garage! (Read: No scraping my windows in the morning!!)

  What about you? What are you thankful for? Link-up your posts and/or tell me in the comments! The more we share, the more we can each remember and appreciate the good things we have in our life!

    Aww, I love the pic of the leaves! I’m thankful for: my family, my friends, and all my beautiful BLENDS, the fact that I’m still relatively young, but I own a home and besides my car, I am debt free, a good job that allows me to live the way I do (read: afford all the food I insist on buying), and heated seats in my car…yes, VERY thankful for those! ๐Ÿ˜‰
