Like so many other people, I stuffed myself full of soooo much good food yesterday! This got me thinking about those who do not have enough to eat or, even worse, nothing to eat at all.
So I have to say that today I am thankful that, even when times have been extremely tight, I have never had to go hungry!
I am thankful for my sweet doggy, Manu. See pic above on Manudawgs Avatar ^. He is so precious and does adorable things that make me smile. When we lost our MinPin Mojo due to kidney failure I thought I could never find another dog who would fill that spot in my heart, I was wrong. Manu is a pound rescue, he was found on the streets. We got him 5 months after I lost me Mom and 4 months after my husband lost his father and he has been a great comfort and source of joy to us!
I am thankful for the good people at the clinic I go to. I am uninsured currently, and they take care of my health needs for a very low cost... sometimes even free. They found the cancer early, and they arranged for my surgery to remove everything. They are also very kind people, who treated me like a person, not a number.
I am thankful that my kids like real food- I woke up this morning and they had plates FULL of chicken dressing and cranberry sauce for breakfast- after they fed all the livestock of course. AND they had turned on my coffee- AND they let me and Hubby sleep late.
I am thankful for the mod contests that I enter -- no, wait, not for those so much, they crap on me but for the cool fellow addicts I have met, sk being one!!
#2 I'm thankful for my mum who is still working hard and what little she had time to teach me about life being one of the best gifts she could have given me.
I'm thankful for losing 40 lbs so far! It's been a tough road to change my life in couple different ways including vaping, but getting more exercise and not eating like a kid was a much harder change to make in my life. And I'm so glad that it's working, and glad that I have the strength to see it through and make it a permanent change!!
Today I am thankful that I no longer work retail. Peace be with my brothers and sisters on the front lines who have to face the bargain seeking horde this day!
