Thankful: Amazon Kindle Fire Giveaway!

by

I am super-duper excited for today’s giveaway. You see, I’ve been thinking about all the things I am thankful for, and there’s a lot- my family, my health, my dogs. And all of you, because you guys are what makes all this carpal tunnel stuff worthwhile. You put up with zombie apocalypses and cheer me up when even Brody isn’t doing the trick.

So because I love you all, we decided to give away something super cool right before the holiday season. I don’t have one yet, except for the one I’m giving away, but I hear they are pretty awesome. I know you all like to read as much as I do. And one of you gets to win one!

Kindle Fire Giveaway!!

I’m using Rafflecopter to run this giveaway so we will see how this goes. Lots of ways to enter! You have two weeks to enter, so still plenty of time to have it for Christmas if you win. US only for this one, sadly- it’s not really supported anywhere else yet. Make sure your e-mail address is in your comment or used for your Disqus signup as this is how I will notify the winner!

  22. This week, I’m thankful for my two sweet kids, my great husband, our four special cats, and the abandoned cat we took in last weekend. (Her owners moved away and just left her! 🙁 ) I’m also thankful that we are financially secure enough to donate to the Red Cross monthly, to give back through Publix to those in our community who don’t have enough to eat, and to the Salvation Army.

  30. I’m thankful for all my family and friends, for having a job I enjoy, and for new opportunities coming my way in recent days. I’m also thankful I stumbled across this blog 2 years and some change ago 😉

  31. I’m thankful for my patient and loving husband and i’m thankful that after 4 1/2 years of trying.. lots of money spent on different treatments.. that my husband and i were finally able to get pregnant.. all.on.our.own!!

  36. I am thankful for my newest rescue dog we got from Villalobos this year. He has helped us get through the grieving process of of losing our heart dog on August 1st this year. And many many more things, life is good.

  39. I’m here bitching about work and drinking coffee and grumping at the terrible weather. And I’m thankful that I’m here and healthy enough to do all these things.

  40. I am thankful for my rescue cat Snoopy to finally be given a clean bill of health by the vet! Yay!

  43. I am thankful for my family. I just graduated (law school/Master’s program) and because of the economy I can’t find employment. I’m grateful to my parents, who have taken my husband and I in and given us food and shelter and emotional support, and possibly even more grateful to my husband for being gracious enough to move in with my parents and not to blame me for the situation we are in. I can’t really afford much in the way of Christmas presents, so I would LOVE to be able to give my husband the Kindle Fire, if I were to win.

  45. That’s generous of you to give this away. Since everyone seems to be talking about what they’re thankful for, I’m thankful for Scout, my Aussie shepherd mix. He’s pretty new to us but we’re already in love with him, and because of his energetic personality we’re living healthier due to the increased exercise. He’s walking us 3 or 4 miles a day, and about an hour of playing. Yay for dogs!

  46. I’m thankful for my dogs….surprise! lol, But seriously, they are the best company I can ask for! My Toby is so good at telling when i’m sad or upset and always comes in for a cuddle 🙂 And Kali is a better addition to our family then i could have ever imagined!! She is just the sweetest dog, follows me wherever i go, always lays right next to me and couldn’t seem more grateful for just a simple belly rub 🙂 I just can’t imagine life without them and don’t want to!!

  47. I am thankful for being in vet school. When it really comes down to it, I’m grateful for the stress and the exhaustion and the haunting dreams about antibiotic lists because this long, hard path is the only way I can become the one thing I’ve always wanted to be.

  49. I’m thankful for my wonderful family and friends, and of course, my furbabies who can always cheer me up! 😀

  52. I’m thankful for so many things. I have been trying to post every day one thing I am thankful for. I am thankful for my two wonderful daughters, for my loving husband, for my always exciting dogs, and especially for the family we have created! We are so blessed to have a similar interest (dogs) and to be able to do things together. Thank you for having a wonderful giveaway and for asking us to share our blessings!
    Happy Thanksgiving!

    And also for great reading material from Dr. V!

  70. I am thankful for my three fur babies (one canine, two feline) who share my house and life with me.

  74. I am thankful for my cats who are always here for me when it sometimes seem like no one is. Today I am especially thankful for Ally-bob, 14 yrs old (pictured in my avatar) and on her way to the vet this afternoon because she seems to have quit eating and seems to be listless.

  76. Today and everyday I’m thankful for another day….we must all lean to appreciate even a bad day. Life can be tough but it’s beautiful! I’m thankful for my 3 boys, 2 cats, 2 dogs, 2 foster dogs and my husband….in NO particular order!

  77. My health. Seriously. I know so many people who have been impacted by cancer. It makes my bandage covering an ear which had a suspicious mole on it (and then removed) seem like child’s play.

  78. I am so thankful for life itself, I’m breathing and moving!! Also thankful for my husband and babies(1 dog, 9 cats)

  79. This week I am thankful for many things – I guess Thanksgiving always makes one remember. I am thankful for my dogs, who are most dear to me. I thankful for my human friends, who deal with my obsessions. Other things include my health, my job, my material things…

  88. I am Thankful for my children and husband. Who I am expecially thankful for is our vet. Our kitten got out and was hit by a car. We rushed him to our vet, but there was nothing they could do. He was very comforting,caring and thought of our beloved kitten as his own. They had to put him down. But I thank the vet for being very compationate. We still have two dogs and two cats, and hope to add another kitten soon.

  89. I am thankful that my family is together and healthy.
    So many are suffering or struggling this Thanksgiving. I know what it means to struggle. Not long ago, my husband was without a job and the stress was unreal.
    I’m thankful for good jobs and all the blessings that go with it.

  91. I am thankful for my family, fiance, friends, and of course Abby cat. I’m also thankful for the ability to go to school so I can learn to do what I love and for the previously mentioned people who remind me that this is what I love when I get bogged down in the day to day stress and forget.

  92. I am thankful for my wonderful, healthy 11-ish pound of crazy furry energy. Love my little Steve!!!

  111. I’m thankful for family, friends, and the chance to be together for Thanksgiving. cstironkat (at) aol (dot) com

  112. While I’m NOT thankful that there are judges out there that schedule trials to begin on the Monday morning after Thanksgiving, forcing some of us to work the entire holiday weekend, I am very thankful that I have a job that I love! 🙂

  115. i am thankful for my husband. he’s not only tolerant of all of my doggie activities, he encourages me to participate and is my biggest cheerleader. granted he keeps saying no to more pets, but since we have 2 cats and 2 dogs, i really can’t complain. i would like to add an exotic to the mix, though…!

  116. There are so many things to be thankful for….where do I begin? Start at home, my husband, son and myself are healthy. My two dogs and one spoiled cat are healthy. Health really plays an important role when you watch someone you love fight for their life, more then once and more then one person. It takes a mental toll on you because you would give up anything you had to see them well again, happy again.

    So, this year, this is what I am thankful for, my familys health 🙂
