I haven't had my own thread in a while. It seemed pretty pointless. Thnks stink, they continue to stink. Not much I can do about it.

Well, I started writing 5 things I am thankful for in the morning. I decided to post them here, just as a way to make a more public commitment to being thankful.

Yesterday, I wrote: I am thankful ...
  • that friends are coming to visit
  • for blackberry pie
  • that my daughter comes to sit on my lap when she is cold.
  • for the generosity of helpful friends
  • for the gym I go to.

Sorry Sirprize that life stinks. LIfe could be so much better, but it could be so much worse too. I try to think of my life is not that bad, I have a roof over my head, my kids are healthy and happy, we have food, the bills are paid, I have a car, I am not paralyzed, or dead.

I am alive, you are alive Sirprize! See life could be so much worse!

Keep that list going!

Thankful for:


Always can count on my girls to lift my spirits no matter what.

Freedom to do as I wish since the D.

Freinds and family I can count on.

My girls & my health.

No more having to cook three course meals, kids will eat anything easy.

This will be my first Halloween party eva attending since X never took me anywhere unless it was his sporting events.

my sweet sister who can make me laugh
til I cry
my little niece and nephew
my angels in heaven - my mom and dad
Oh, I almost forgot - chocolate!

Cool! Great lists, everyone.

Today I am thankful…
  • for payday. Today I get paid. My bills are not all paid up, but at least I can keep the wolves at bay for 2 more weeks.
  • for Fred Meyer – a great store, you can get everything there!
  • for Wednesdays, I see my kids today.
  • for iPods – it’s nice to have portable music
  • for fall weather and foliage
