During times of change, turmoil and stress, we sometimes don't look for the positive side.... or the good things.


Let's see if we can list a thing... or two... that we're thankful for.

Great topic, Karen! Let's see... I'm thankful for...

1. My beautiful sons. Even though they're driving me nutz.

2. Each little step towards my former good health. It's been a long road.

3. That STBX is out of the house!! WOOHOO!

4. That I'm moving back to my hometown next year.

5. My good friends and support system (including you gals here at iVillage!)

6. I'm proud to be a Mayflower Descendant 15 times over (so far), I live just 20 minutes from Plymouth, and my boys can share in this heritage, and actually seem interested in their family history.

7. I'm thankful that I'm getting out from a bad marriage.

I know things could be a lot worse for me (post-divorce, $ problems, custody problems etc..)

I am most thankful and grateful for my DD. I wouldn't have a life without her. As much as her sperm donor means nothing to me I am so grateful that we could produce such a beautiful gift to me. I love her sooo much.

Thankful for my family (parents,nices nephews etc.) that they are healthy.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Like many, I am thankful for my family and friends, health and employment. This morning a nut-job without a clue cut me was weaving on the freeway and suddenly cut me off in heavy traffic. And I said to myself, "I am thankful to have a working automobile and the skill to drive it better than that dude." LOL!

I am thankful for lots of things.... my kids and family, great friends, good health (or at least being in a maintaining mode--I'm much better than I was this time last year and very thankful that the issue was something very manageable and nothing major--and very happy that my sister is doing so well in maintaining her battle, gosh, of....
