Thankful Thursday

I had a pretty rough week & I wasn't sure if I was going to be able to do a Thankful Thursday this week. I know there is plenty of good in my life, but it's been a little hard to find this week. I've been looking, though, & trying to stay positive, I have just felt a little overwhelmed. After thinking about it, I decided the best way to stay positive would be to list the positives in my life. So, I'm going to do my list this week. Sorry if it's not quite as chipper as the last few. Here goes...

I'm Thankful For...
  • Trials & tribulations, so I can learn to rely on God.
  • A caring husband who will drop everything the be there for me.
  • A dirty house, because that means we've been living in it & enjoying our time.
  • Losing a friend because it gives me the opportunity to make new friends.
  • Being able to look into myself & figure out how to be a better friend.
  • My dad & Kathy - I'd be in big trouble without the dental insurance they provide for me.
  • Reese's job, so we can afford to go to the doctor & dentist.
  • My mom, for always being there for me & offering the best advice.
  • Kleenex with lotion, so my face doesn't go raw.
  • McDonald's, because sometimes you just need a little bit of disgusting fried food.
  • Dr. Pepper, because it's awesome - obviously.
  • A loving God who will listen to me cry & help me put myself back together.




I know it's good to focus on the positive & I will try harder to do it this week.

I'd love to hear what you are all thankful for!

You took the time to think of the positive and that's important even if it has been a crummy week. Good for you!
