You know, this is going to be my second hard holiday season in a row. Last year was the first one without Dad (and my bro, who moved out of state after Dad died), and this year, which was supposed to be the most magical ever since bro is back, H has a nice new job and DD is in our lives.... crapola again.
I'm trying to think of what I'm thankful for:
DD, of course, the best thing that has ever happened to me!
My bro is back AND finally found a job he starts Monday... Woohoo!
All my wonderful supportive friends who have really proven their friendship over the past three months... co-workers, neighbors, fellow bellydancers and my out-of-state lifelines
The fact that Mom and I have a good relationship again.
That I have little debt, a roof over our heads, a safe car to drive, and food on the table.
That I have a good counselor and good attorney to help me through this D mess.
My newfound relationship with God. He welcomed me back to the fold with open arms.
That so far I am surviving the worst curveball life has ever thrown to me.
And last but certainly not least, I'm definitely thankful for this MB board and all the friends here. I don't know what I would do without you all. I hope everyone here has a wonderful day today and great holiday season in general.
What are YOU thankful for?
