Thankful for Countdown

I am only three days into my countdown and already have missed a post!  I have lots of excuses.....I had to clean the kitchen for the big thanksgiving feast next week, (which I am already seeing was pointless because there is no way we will keep it clean for a week), I had to clean Oxley's tank (which is an hour long process), I had to make my pre-thanksgiving grocery list, I had to keep the kids from hurting each other (which took all day and I was only semi-sucessful at), I had to prepare my piano music for church, I had to take pictures of and help with the deer my husband 'had' to kill during my already busy Saturday, and I had to take a nap (review list to see why I was tired).
Hence, today I am ever so thankful for quiet moments.  I love quiet moments more now than I ever have in my life.  I am always thankful for the few minutes I can get to myself to think quietly or to sit quietly without thinking. Either is nice at times.
What are you thankful for today?
