Thankful Thursday

TGIT! Thank God Its Thursday! The weekend has begun here in Kuwait and I am always thankful for the weekends. Today was a very busy day at school, but I like busy! Now it is time to relax, clean a little, craft a little. I received this golden award today from my Austrian bloggy friend, Traude http://rostrose.blogspot.com/. Thanks so much!

There were no rules attached. I was just asked to pass it on to three other friends. I thought it would be nice to choose three completely different blogs.

"Gratitude is something of which none of us can give too much. For on the smiles, the thanks we give, our little gestures of appreciation, our neighbors build their philosophy of life."
-- A. J. Cronin

I hope that everyone has a great end of the week. Dusk is fast approaching here, so thought I would leave you with some images of Kuwait that I took the other night. First is the water towers that you can find all over Kuwait. Certainly different from the water silos in the States. And the seconed picture is a landmark of Kuwait, the Kuwait Towers (Abraj Al Kuwait.


Peace & blessings, Tammy

Hi Tammy,

Thank you for bestowing the Golden Award on me - Wow, that made my day. :)

I'm fighting the flu or a major head cold, so it's been a miserable week, but I'm pressing on, marching on towards the happy weekend, which begins this afternoon for me, as it's a long one.

I so enjoy your blog - the photos are always fascinating to me, and it's just so neat to share with you, so far away from the flat farmland of Illinois... technology is a wonderous thing and for that I'm truly thankful. :)

Hope you and your sweet family have a wonderful weekend. Blessings always,
Linda ♥

Dear Tammy, I'm happy that you accepted the award! Yes, it's true, there were no rules attached. I don't even know to how many other blogs I should pass it - but I always choose only three (it's my own "award-tradition" ;-))
Your photos of the Kuwait Towers and the water towers are very pretty!!!
Hugs, Traude

Beautiful photos. The light and shadows really give deep feeling to the images. Yes, a weekend is something of a blessing☺ I think we need them to find rest, peace and to charge up for the following week's demands.
