Birds in a row (Photo credit: The Wren Design)
Anyone can be grateful for the beauty of nature, the kindness of strangers, and that they have a roof over their heads and food on the table. I have a few things I am grateful for that others might find questionable:
1. I am grateful for crazy glue.
2. I am happy that birds do not die when they perch on electrical wires.
3. I am glad that the cat next door is such a tyrant. Makes me appreciate my cat.
Synopsis of today’s post: Short and sweet sprinkled with a little weird and quirky.
On the Homefront 
Lol….#3 reminds me of when my kids were small and their friend’s would have tantrums….made me appreciate my kids.
lol – your kids were perfect–and not just from an aunt’s perspective
Funny Lou Ann and btw I love quirky and weird.
me too – thanks Brigitte 🙂
LOL on #2 😀
don’t you wonder about that?
I too have always marveled at how birds and squirrels don’t electrocute themselves while sitting on power lines. It is indeed something to be grateful for.
especially for them! 😉
Haha I like your list 🙂
When I was little number 2 was a great fear of mine!
Cheers

there is an explanation but I cannot remember it
They must occasionally do something that is against the power line rules – we occasionally find some crispy birds under ours.
I am grateful for weird and quirky people. That way I don’t stick out so much.
hmm-I wonder what they do?
I am glad I could be there for you with all my weird and quirkiness – I aim to please
And I am grateful for Duct Tape. After trying a variety of glues, good ol’ duct tape is keeping the rubber stripping securely attached to my car’s window! Yay, self-sufficient success!
I will have to be thankful for duct tape in another post — it too, is a lifesaver. The glue though glued my favorite Trisha Romance plate back together – so I am forever grateful for it
I love your blog :). You put into words the quirky and weird stuff that we all wonder about every day!!
why thank you – I have a BA in weird and quirky — it was really in Communications Studies and English – but that translates into weird and quirky
How crazy.. I was coming home from work yesterday and I looked up at an electrical wire and there must have been thousands of back birds and I wondered, “how come they aren’t electrocuted”..
great minds think alike 🙂
I really like the way you are doing this!
thank you – sometimes I am having fun — sometimes I am stumped
Crazy that you should be grateful for Crazy Glue. Me too.
I love short and quirky posts.
thank you — crazy glue has mended many a memory for me
Good on ya!
Cheers1
cheer back 🙂
Quirky does it for me! Loved it – so many little things we can appreciate, thank you for pointing them out. Blessings – Patty
thanks Patty – 🙂
hehe I love this! Quirky is my favourite 🙂
thank you 🙂
Looks like quirky and weird is a hit with us readers! 🙂
thanks – 🙂
Birds oughta be thankful they aren’t “grounded”.
true that (this is not the way I generally talk)
