THINGS FOR WHICH I AM THANKFUL: lizardek

THINGS FOR WHICH I AM THANKFUL

that my addictions do not include reality television or computer games
that my children are healthy, intelligent and well-behaved in public
that my paycheck was really big this month relieving the usual Xmas-and-end-of-year-bills worries
that our house is so nice and so warm
that I'll have friends and family to eat turkey and stuffing with this weekend
that my husband is coming home tomorrow and wasn't in the area of the earthquake that hit northern Italy last night
that when I cleaned out my closet last weekend I didn't end up documenting the shame on the internet
that Sophie wasn't crushed by a car yesterday
that things, when they're bad, are rarely as bad as they seem
that despite being far, far away from my first family, there are email and telephones to keep us closely connected
that my soon to be sister-in-law is not asking me to sing The Battle Hymn of Love at their wedding next year
the online friendships I've made in the last year
the amount of times each day that my children make me laugh
Reese's Peanut Butter Cups
strong fingernails and straight teeth
GB Gingerbread Ice Cream Sandwiches
a really good, productive, happy and fulfilled life, so far, despite the poodle hair

Happy Thanksgiving From Me To You!
