I'm thankful for big cappucinos and cigarettes (smoking AGAIN :() to wake me up and give me a push to start my day when I don't want to. :cry:

I'm thankful for my patient husband and my rowdy boys.

I'm having a ####### week so I'm really digging for things to be thankful for at this moment. I HATE my job. :cry: I'm so wanting to be a kid again without any worries or responsibilities.

Thanks, Doodle. (F):luv:

Since last year I've quit like 5 or 6 times. This time was a pretty good one...3 mos. smoke free with a smoker living in the house. It's just when I have a tough time I reach for the smokes. :(

It's been a woe is me week. I think I'm pretty close to driving Moh nuts. He practically begged me to stay home today so I could get over whatever is bothering me. Funny thing is I can't exactly pin point what's bothering me. I'm so glad tomorrow is Friday!

Wouldn't he be so thrilled? He's the only guy I know who swoons over babies like women do. You should've seen him having a conversation with a one year old in line at Cedar Point last week. :luv: But no, unfortunately I just finished my monthly three days ago.

Im thankful to have woken up today and that the sun is shining. Im thankful for airplanes, cell phones, hotels, cams, internet...think about that...20 years ago....could we have done all this as we do today? Would we have met our SO's in the first place for some of us? How horrible to use landlines, snail mail for the time it takes to wait on our visas. THANK GOD for modern technology!!!

I am thankful that my sister was wearing her helmet when she had a bike accident yesterday. The helmet is in 3 pieces but her head in just in one, like it should be!! :dance::dance: She has a torn ligament in her neck and a fracture in her spine, but she will be back to normal (and trying to do something else wild) in no time. praise God. :dance: (i.e. no permanent damange)
