Today I am thankful for my washing machine.  Although I’m not a huge fan of doing laundry (since as soon as I think I’m done, there’s always more) I’m so thankful that I have a washing machine in my apartment.  I also have a washing machine sitting in my in-laws shed, just waiting for our house to close so it can be put back to work.  For about 3 years we lived without a washing machine in our apartment.  I never want to do that again.  I can’t imagine what it was like for all the people a hundred years ago, having to wash all their laundry by hand.

London is thankful for water and waves.  I guess that would be the beach?  She does love the beach, although I can’t say she really loves the waves.  She’s too afraid to put her head under the water (and she still has a tube in one of her ears so she can’t anyway).  She does love water.  It’s almost always her drink of choice.  In fact, she always has to have a cup of water in bed with her.  Sometimes she even snuggles with it.  I can think of a lot of things worse than that.
