Thankfulness
Hello Blogland.
I was sitting down thinking...I have alot to be thankful for...not just this time of year but everyday.
So to kick off my holiday weekend I will list some things I am thankful for:
1. I am thankful that both of my parents are still alive and I can call to speak to them. No I don't always agree with them, no it is not always a pleasant convo, but yes I am grateful they are still here. 
2. I am thankful for both of my sons. They have taught me to laugh at myself and life. They let me be my silly self and enjoy every minute of it. 
3. I am thankful for having a job I enjoy and co-workers I enjoy being around.
4. I am thankful for having a home to go to in a safe neighborhood.
5. I am thankful for friends who love me in spite of me. 
6. I am thankful for peace of mind.
7. I am thankful for spiritual grounding.
8. I am thankful for new acquaintances and old friendships. The old friendships show me what is tried and true, the new relationships let me be open to change, but the old experiences help me to "not be a fool".
9. Thankful for my brother and my sister...we may not be on the same page all the time, but we are family.
I hope you remember to be thankful for what you do have, hopeful for what you need, and grateful for the people in your life. Have a wonderful and safe holiday.
This has been another Newy perspective.

Hey Missy! Wonderful list and a good idea for this time of year.
happy holidays!
It's always important to remember how fortunate we are. I think with the
economy being what it is right now, it's so easy to get depressed. Having
good health and family are the most important things too me and sometimes I
have to remind my self. You had a great list.
Numbers 6 and 7 is what the world needs. That's what's up. I lvoe your
pride in your sons... it always makes me feel fuzzy.
