I’m thankful I have no reason to participate in Black Friday.

I love this.
I am thankful that my family and I are healthy. That we have a wonderful thanksgiving to eat with loving extended family. And that we have a working toilet with indoor plumbing. I know that sounds silly, but a lot of people in the world don’t have that!

I am thankful for
1. My family who have been with me through thick and thin
2. The strength of spirit and hope I have despite some really tough times I’ve been through in life

I am thankful for many, many things so here is a quick list:
-My husband, kids and the rest of my family. This year we are all healthy and able to be together, so I am more than grateful for that!
-Being able to turn on the heater a little and put on a sweater, when many are out in the cold today.
-My car. It is safe, reliable and the windshield wipers work – living in OR that is a must.
-Having access to insurance and healthcare for my children and I.
-Being able to make the choice to go to nursing school and having the means to do so while raising three kids.
-The Goodwill. It is so nice that I do not have to stress about affording the basics because I am happy to buy used. For $20 I just got got all three kids great new winter coats, rain boots and I even scored some Under Armor for each of them. Everything looks brand-new and the retail value would be around $150, which would have wiped out our monthly budget.
Happy Thanksgiving!

After hoofng it across a few states and carrying everything I own on my back I realize that having shelter from the cold, heat, and rain, fresh water to drink and shower, enough food to sustain me, clothes for my body and shoes to protect my feet is all a person needs….every thing else is just gravy….and sometimes even a trap.

1) Family and friends who are like family
2) Warm, snug, comfortable shelter
3) Good food
4) An interesting job that supports my family
5) Education for my boys and myself
6) the ability to run, which makes me happy
7) access to medical care and finally, family insurance
8) a rare sunny day in the Northwest!

My husband, the food, running water and being a woman in a country where I can go to school, read what I want (and drive!).

Today I am thankful for:
1 Family and friends
2 Living in a country where I can worship as I choose
3 Always having enough or more than enough so I can share
4 A husband that loves me
5 All the military that works so hard to guarantee my freedom
6 So many things that sometimes I forget to even notice because my life is overflowing with many, many blessings!
