And by the looks of things, I have missed a lot! Well, real quick, everyone list 10 things you are thankful for! (It's Thanksgiving, so we're supposed to do that, right??) I know for some people, struggling with different issues right now, this might be a challenge, but you can do it! (If I can, you can!) I want to read everyone else's first, then I'll do mine. I wish everyone a happy thanksgiving and holiday break, if you have one. And good luck shopping on "Black Friday" if you're brave enough to do that (I'm not!)
Hugs, Kim

That's easy. Happy Thanksgiving to all of you!

My 3 wonderful kids
a nice car
a warm, comfortable place to live
a safe, sane job to pay for our needs
the chance to take grad classes and further my education
a man who's crazy about me even though he's far away
my brother,who is coming for thanksgiving
good friends (electronic ones too!)
plenty of food to eat
being physically able to do what I want

I could go on about being born in America, not having war in our country, living in a country where diversity is allowed, being so blessed to have freedom to believe what I want and say what I want. Life is good...

Hi darlin,
hope your well! I haven't had a chance to write because I was in the hospital over a week. No worries, everything fine. But I was out over 2 wks in total and back since yesterday. It seems like a mad house.
Anyway, I haven't celebrated in years, because I always have to work, but I'm looking forward to it when I come back home in 18 months. Here is my list!

1 My entire family, even those I tend to argue with
2 To have my health back
3 My job
4 That my house (which I love, but falling apart) is only for rent. LOL
5 Great friends that stick by me thru thick and thin.
6 To be greatful that I am struggling but still better off than others
7 For being an American
8 For learning to slowly love myself again
9 Having the possibility to have done the things I've done.
10 and with all the bad luck I always have, their is always a silver lining at the end of it all.

Happy Thanksgiving, Kim!!!!!!!!

I'm thankful for . . . .

1. My wonderful, happy, healthy little boys.
2. My step-kids - who have accepted me and never challenged me and who called this morning while I was getting ready to say "HAPPY THANKSGIVING, MIN!" and who wanted to talk to me before TT got on the phone.
3. My TT. God, do I love that man. Imperfections and all.
4. My parents. I don't know what I'd do without them.
5. HELLO! MY HEALTH!!!!!! AMAZING!
6. My dear friends - both internet and IRL.
7. My job. Love the people I work with, love the company I work for, love how wonderful they are to me, love the pay! LOL
