Back again for round #2 for today.  It was a rough one but I'm out of my funk and so ready for a beautiful tomorrow.

I am grateful for.....

my ability to hear.  My son and I just had lots of giggles and one big belly roar.

being able to feel good again.  Today was a rough day emotionally and mentally and I finally snapped backed to the ME I want to be.

being able to be soooooooooo silly and see my son's smile

being a mom even though it's trying sometimes

having a mom that taught me so much about love and parenting and she didn't even know it.  I miss her so much.  It's days like today that I wish I could have called her so she could make everything ok.  But she is always with me in my heart.

being a beautiful 41 yr old woman on this earth, at this moment, doing what I do.

Have a beautiful night ladies and God bless.

Today I am grateful for:

1.  waking up refreshed, positive and feeling so much better than yesterday.

2.  the smells and colors of fall.  The morning air is crisp and very chilly and the slight breeze is blowing beautiful red, yellow and orange leaves softly to the ground.  I love fall.

3.  the wonderful time my son and I had last night giggling and being silly.

4.  my neighbor's cat, Harry and my dog, Jack for greeting me this morning with unconditional love.

5.  my faith in my God and myself.

Have a terrific day everyone!

Laura,
Thank you for reminding me to be thankful for fall.

Today I am thankful for this beautiful time of years.  Delightful colors and scents all around me.
Memories of pumpkin pies and expectations of those to come in the next few weeks.
Dressing up and gathering candy from the neighbors, laughing at the costumes of all the chldren and adults.

My little puppy who loves me so much.  Last night I made her a sweater by cutting up one of my old ones. 

I am thankful that I learned to sew as a child, cause I couldn't find a puppy sweater small enough for Princess TinkerPoo.  LOL

I am thankful for orange lights which I will put on my front porch today so at night we can enjoy the color of fall and celebrate the joy this time of  year brings us.

I am thankful for high speed internet and all the techy gadgets in my life.  I just love em.

I am thankful for Tae Kwon Do and the courage to take it.  I can almost do a complete split for the first time in my whole life.
