2011 Gratitude Challenge ~ Day 21

2012GratitudeChallenge-1-1_thumb_thumb

 

Today I am grateful for local businesses!

 

Mr. O took the day off and we went in search of our options for pellet stoves.  The local fireplace store was NOT on his radar for looking, but I insisted we stop to see if he stocked a hearth gate.

 

Not only did we find the gate there (first place we’d found to stock it), but we got a fantastic deal on a slightly used pellet stove.  Now I just need to get things arranged downstairs so Mr. O can get it installed over the long weekend.  It’ll be nice to have an alternative heat source in the house.

 

But, best of all we are able to support a local business instead of a ‘box’ store.

 

What are YOU grateful for today?

 

If you blog and are interested, Brenda at Garden of Learning is hosting this challenge for the month of November.  No need to participate daily, either.  My goal is to post pretty much daily like last year.  Yet, I know that sometimes life intervenes.
