Thank You

In light of it being Thanksgiving today I thought I would express what I am thankful for. It's so hard to stay thankful when so many things have gone wrong this year, but sometimes writing it all out helps.

First and formost Im thankful for my daughters. They are my strength to keep going. Everything I do, I do in consideration of them.

Im thankful for my family and friends who have been extremely important~ read instrumental~ in their support of me always, but especially now.

Im thankful for my home which is being remodeled. I know that I complain about how long its taking, but knowing that it will be safe for my family is comforting.

Im thankful for us being healthy. {knock on wood} we havent had any major health issues ( the girls and I ).

Im thankful for my job. I know the economy is rough right now. My business is booming, and my job has provided me with excellent stability. My clients are wonderful, and I am making more money with less hours than ever before. This is allowing me more time with my girls, and that's priceless.

I'm thankful that I somehow found the strength this year to realize that Im responsible for the change I so desperately was seeking. That I could no longer wait and see and allow that to fall into someone else's hands. That if I wanted things to be different, I had to indeed do something different.

I'm thankful for the hope the new president brings. I cant wait for that change!

So those are my insights for the day. Hope all of you have a happy, healthy holiday!
