10 Things I am Thankful for this Year.

Although I am in the wake of the worst year of my life this Thanksgiving, I still have a lot of things to be thankful for:

  1. My family. My parents are on the other side of the country but I talk to my Mom more now then I did when she lived a few miles away.
  2. Gracie. The little kitty is my best buddy and has turned me into a morning person.  Well, almost.
  3. Emily. She is the spitting image of her father, down to his mannerisms and I still get to see her every week.
  4. Social Media. I found a new calling this year and it was in the form of tweets.
  5. My friends. You stuck by me through everything. Thank you.
  6. My Twitter followers. That’s right, all 16,000+ of you rock. Each and every one of you.
  7. The Internet. Seriously.  It has changed my life.  I actually met Harry on MySpace 4 years ago today.
  8. Food in my cabinets.  Even though I’m broke and I eat a lot of mac and cheese, it’s still food.
  9. Clothes in my closet. Yes, they are all 2 sizes too tight.  But that’s not the clothes’ fault.  It’s mine for eating so many Oreos.
  10. My memories of Harry. I got to spend the last 3 years & 2 months of his life with him and I will never forget the good times we spent together.

 

Happy Thanksgiving everyone! What are you thankful for?

    One thing I am grateful for is reconnecting with you after all these years. I don’t have much family, so the ones I can talk to or hear from occationally means alot to me. I am so glad you are there, cuz.

    I am thankful for many things, Becky. My family and the love we all have for each other. My God, who is always there for me and knows exactly what it is I need and when. And so much more!

    I am so thankful to have you as my twitter friend. Knowing your story, (too much for one person to endure), You still push on and find things to be thankful for. I respect you for taking Emily into your heart and I can feel the love you have for her.

    You are a ‘special’ person, Becky and you have a beautiful heart.

    Gratefully,
    Cynthia
