Thankful Thursday

I have a lot to be thankful for.

I have a good job.

A wonderful, gorgeous, talented husband who loves me unconditionally, even on the days where he would rather lock me in a padded room.

I have 3 great, smart (sometimes with an -alleck tagged on the end) kids who are pretty good, MOST OF THE TIME.

I have a ton of little furry things running around my house who really do love me unconditionally and don't want to lock me up, who miss me when I'm gone and always listen to me.

I have great friends. Some friends that have stuck with me for over 30 years, and some who I just met in the past month. I love those friends who I can go weeks without seeing and then when we get together, it is like no time has passed. I am also very blessed by my new friends that make me feel like I have known them all of my life!

I have a God who created this world and loved me enough to give me the chance to experience all these things that I am so thankful for.

This Thursday - I am really, really thankful. :-)

How about you?

My dark day

Every year, I wake up on this day and wonder why I don't feel quite right. Then I look at the date. July 6th. Four years ago today, I lost my Grandma. And it still hurts.

So today, I am revisiting all of my previous Grandma posts with you, while I am missing her.
