Happy Thanksgiving Wendy, Michele, Kim and even Canadian Lori (I won't hold that against you;-) )!!! I hope that everyone has a great and wonderful day and that we eat and don't feel guilty - it is only once a year and we have earned it, right?
Well, today I am thankful that my ankle doesn't hurt, that my kids are healthy, and that I am surrounded by people that I love who also love me. I look around me, and I really have absolutely nothing to complain about; everything is a gift and a blessing. I could complain about my bills, but then if I got rid of them that means I wouldn't have a house, heat, running water, a car to get around in, a phone to call my friends with, no internet to talk to my friends, and no health care. I could complain about my dirty dishes and clothes, about cleaning up the house constantly, but get rid of those and I am naked, starving, childless, and out in the cold with nothing. I don't have a single thing to complain about, my life is so full and rich. I am thankful that each day I can find friends, encouragement and laughs whenever I log on to this site. I am thankful for each of you today, because without you holding me accountable, without your encouragement, without your kindness and humor I may not be where I am today. Even if I did get to where I was, it would not have been as much fun without you, my friends. Happy Thanksgiving, everyone, and let us not forget how much we have to be thankful for, and just how lucky we all truly are.
God Bless,
Missy
