Old friends, a new job I love, good medical care, a car that runs well, and beautiful weather.

(And a great thread)

Motrin and the ability to bite my tongue!

^^^ Your avatar is proof of that ability. :)

I'm grateful for the invitation to see Paul Simon live. He put on a great show.

Food! Processed food goodness. It is a definite day for quick comfort food. So, yes, I love my Chef Boyardee raviolis, Swedish fish, velveeta cheese dip, Tostitos, and Cherry Coke. :) And of course cake..can't forget the cake.

For those who turned the idea into a great thread and kept it simple..... and for my sanity.

An unexpected '93 Ford Aerostar.

A surprise phone call from a friend serving in Iraq. I hadn't heard from him in a little bit and was getting a little worried.

That I am not in school anymore.

Today I am thankful for....
 

Living in a nation where little girls are able to even go to school, unlike other nations in this world.

Today I'm grateful for Albuterol, my asthma medicine. Without it, I would have died long ago.

TAKE THAT, NATURAL SELECTION!!!

Smirnoff...

A much needed break, even if there is not alcohol with which to celebrate. I shall remedy that shortly.

I am grateful I have a job I love, my health, a great son and am seeing Alice Cooper Sunday 7th row

Tylenol PM and a day off

life, having a job I love and remembering where I came from and how far I have come, but most of all, Lady Sage..... whom can be the most loving caring woman I have ever met.

For somebody who left a bag of cheetos on the counter...

grateful for still being alive, my family being here for me no matter what.

friends who are safe and sound

alka seltzer plus cold medicine

aaaaah choooo

*Passes mal the kleenex*

I woke up.

Flannel sheets, blankets, and a warm body to snuggle up to.

And possibly snow in October...I know it's beautiful, but why does it have to be so cold?

my ss check....:thumbsup:

Suprise visits from friends to turn an ultracrappy day into many smiles and laughs. :)

that I am able to forgive myself finally.

The beautiful weather today, my great sounding Tacoma, and I went almost an entire day without thinking about work.

...pumpkin pie.

I live overseas and its been 7 years since I enjoyed it. I bought a whole one today (plus whip cream of course) and it is half finished. My stomach is a bit sore but definately worth it. Mmmmmm....nice.

A lazy Sunday curled up on the couch cuddling finally feeling life settle around me.

*Curls up with Shesus and a couple cats on the couch and produces 2 cups of tea*

Knowing I have friends who love me. :)

A Sunday off with nothing to do and sitting at my computer watching A-ha on YouTube.

today i am grateful that i am not selfish enough to kill myself

Today I am grateful for the Ignore button :)

Cryin shame it wont work in real life! :lol:

getting second chances to do things right the first time.

Having the time to be able to stay home from work today and wait for the plumber.

A gorgeous Florida day at 53 degrees fahrenheit. Oh blessed autumn!

Our first cool day of the year!!

Pan, without his support I would have long since gone insane!

Autumn. I love walking through crunchy leaves and looking at the leaves on the trees that are changing colors. It's cold enough to bundle up in a coat and hat, but not so cold that you are miserable. Perfect. :)

Today Im grateful for the fact that my boyfriend is home from the hospital and that it was only a kidney stone and not a blocked bowel abcess (which could have been fatal)... even though hes still terribly sick, hes still here and Im so grateful for that! :D

Today I'm not particularly grateful for anything. My good karma has run out and my life is slowly going to pieces because I've been on a good streak for so long that I forgot how to deal with bullshit and stress. I guess I'm grateful for the fact that I can deal with my problems and not have to force them on others, and the knowledge that I managed to get through worse shit in the past, even if I don't know how I did it. It doesn't help that sympathy, no matter how sincere, seems patronizing rather than sympathetic.

It was kind of cool that a US congressional candidate invited me to a party today, though.

I'm grateful that it can get worse, but hasn't.

You're already there babe :icare: chose me as a fiancee didn't ya?

Today I am grateful for Lady Sage, she is my rock and steadies me. I'm also grateful for friends here on TFP that I sometimes don't tell how appreciated they are here...... Tec was/is one.... hopefully, he realizes how much he will be missed. And the many others, whom I hope know how I feel about them.

Knowledge in things others call frivolous.
