Who will you thank in thesis acknowledgements?

I was reading responses today on a PhD forum around who people thanked in their thesis acknowledgement/personal thank you section. 

Some were very simple (committee, god, family) and others were much more extensive. One person even had none! 

I’m a few months off that stage now so it’s been on my mind recently. My list is lengthy because my journey hasn’t been straight forward: 

• My husband 
• Supervisors. I have been so lucky to have amazing supervisors 
• My dogs (my research is animal based and my doggies started me on it and kept me company while writing)
• The many teacher and uni colleagues l’ve worked with who supported me emotionally and practically as I hit speed bump after speed bump
• The many people who voluntarily helped out with my research for no personal gain, including numerous volunteers in the community who gave so much of their time. They saved my bacon a few times when I had ethics issues trying to go into schools
• My besties who listened to me complain a lot. Like….a lot! 
• My family, especially my grandparents. My 97yo grandad has drawn me a dog themed illustration for each chapter so his illustrations will live on forever.

I’m also currently considering adding my recliner which has supported me through most of my writing. 

And finally….most importantly….Bluey gets a mention!
