day this month which I believe inspires others to think of things they sort of take for granted.  I just loved this idea but with the craziness that consumes my life at times, I never did get on the bandwagon with them.  As I was driving home today from a long weekend away I had a thought and I decided to share it with you.  I guess I feel it sort of sums up everything I appreciate.
• I figured out what I'm most thankful for.  Let's see if you can figure out what it is.  You don't ever have to make an appointment or stand in line to do it.  It requires no special skills or training of any kind.  You can do it pretty much anywhere, anytime and with others or alone.  You'll be amazed at how well it works if you're patient and truly believe.  By now I'm sure you've figured out what it is, but if not, it's the fact that I'm thankful for my ability to pray.  It took me a long time to literally "see" a prayer answered but once I did, I realized I had finally figured out how to do it.  It's really quite simple but it took several tries before I got it right.  I had to put someone else's happiness before mine.  What a life changing moment that was.  As you celebrate Thanksgiving with your family or friends or maybe by yourself I hope you can recall at least one thing you're thankful for. Happy Thanksgiving!  I guess there are a few others things I'm thankful for too……Spray and Wash would be one of them!
