OK I know you’re all tired of reading thankful posts, but darnit, I just saw this 5 minute challenge and of course needed to try it.
Not that I’m competitive or anything.
But if I was competitive, I’m pretty sure I’d be pissed at myself because I did horribly on this challenge.
I’m convinced that I could think of more things that I’m thankful for in five minutes, but I cannot think and type these things out. Especially because I’m kind of wordy when I type.
Anyway, I thought of twenty six things, which is pathetic. But at least it’s something, right?!

I promise I’m thankful for more things than this list would suggest.
Just to humor me…
In five minutes, how many things can you list that you’re thankful for?!
Cheers!
