Truly... Thankful

This morning was one of "those" mornings. Every thing went wrong and slow, and it was so easy to look at the negative of each situation. So I thought I would post 10 things that I ma thankful for to try and get a little perspective!

 

Some things I am thankful for

 

1. Getting up each morning to an excited puppy who wants snuggles and 2 cats who are full of love (until they get what they want – food!)

 

2. Having a job to go to every day, no matter how busy it is or how many staff members we are down. I have a job I like, and I get paid for it.

 

3. Getting our new car back (finally! Only 1 month later) right before our other car died again. And being able to have transport to get Peter to work

 

4. Having a little bit of money available to pay for the above repairs on our Honda. (This is the same problem that we just paid a lot of money to be fixed a few months ago)

 

5. Even though today is crappy and raining I am thankful for the beautiful sunshine and HOT weather that we had over the weekend

 

6. The fact that I have family who love me and will listen to me bitch and moan, no matter how far away I live.

 

7. I have fresh fruit in my fridge, home made soup, vegetables and enough packet food to last us until our next pay day and beyond. Even though I am trying to diet, I am lucky that that diet is not enforced by simply having no food.

 

8. I am lucky enough to live in a house that has 4 walls, a roof, windows, and security screens on every door and window. I am lucky that I am able to pay for all this and still have some money left over to pay other bills.

 

9. I am thankful for my little bubble, and my little family who continue to support me (even if it is only with a purr here and there). I am thankful that I am not pushed out of my comfort zone on a daily basis, and that I have the strength and understanding to get through every day, 1 day at a time.

 

10. I am thankful for the fact that every night when I go to bed, Peter (who is always asleep before me) will open his arms to give me a sleepy cuddle.
