...for M and B's generosity. I never imagined they will give me such a gift for finishing school. I am in awe.

Employment. Y'all remember my neverending, Job-like job search. The episode of Family Guy that summarizes four Stephen King tales. Coffee. Sweet, delicious, life-giving coffeeeee....

Sleep. For years I struggled with horrible insomnia. And somehow it got cured this year without me noticing for months. I have no idea how or why, and it scares me to think its not permanent, but for the moment, I am so very thankful for it.

LT I think it's your food and exercise. At least I know* that's been a big thing for me. And decreasing my stress levels.

Yeah I think they both play a *huge* role in it. But considering that since I have Fibro, my brain isn't properly wired for sleep, for me this is nothing short of a miracle. So it makes me want to do my happy dance

Being able to get up from my bed! Seriously, it's the little things that we take for granted. I'm so thankful to be pain-free again. I hope it stays this way.
I'm also thankful for the two kittens I found in my yard. I'm hoping to find them some homes soon.

Im thankful Pinky is feeling better. :)Ill take a kitty
But then of course that would mean Id have to deal with the post office again that is why I came in here in the first place.
I am thankful the Lord has blessed me with patience, whether it came from old age or simply by His grace..... it is do to that patience that I was able to walk away from an incredibly rude.... I mean more so than normal postal worker.
With the bad day I had my annoyance level was already through the roof, but, instead of going off.. I walked away.... Oh.. but I wanted to go off verbally so bad..... tell them they needed to learn how to treat human beings, even if you hate your job, treat people as people not gnats.
I was reminded of this.
Someone needs an "etiquette lesson"

I'm thankful that the doctors caught my aunt's cancer so early. Apparently, it hasn't spread and should only require a relatively simple operation.

I think one of my favorite things is the few times a year my Dad calls me and says that his meeting was cancelled and did I want to have breakfast with him before I start work. Love those moments.
I wish that little times like that came with a camera so I could capture it

The warmth of the sun.
I worked in cold conditions and that makes me tired (I get cold, my body gets slower and just wants to sleep)
I walked outside into the sun light and it felt SOOOOO good.
Of course later in the day when I left work I said "Okay, enough warmth...."
Which lead to me being thankful for AC.
Life is an endless loop is it not? (Well until death comes)
