Thankful Five

I have not done a Thankful Five in a while. I let life overwhelm me and forgot about them. Seeing as how the Thankful Five was supposed to help me through rough times, it was probably not the best thing in the world that I forgot about doing them. I think starting them back up again will help me maintain a positive attitude during this time of high stress.

1. I am thankful for my family – they have shown me an enormous amount of support.

2. I am thankful to have a place to lay down my head at night.

3. I am thankful for being able to express my emotions in a healthy way.

4. I am thankful for dropping a whole pant size.

6. I am thankful for the snuggles with my dog.

Thankful Five

Time for my Thankful Five!  My favorite part of the week.  You know, Mondays are supposed to be yucky, but doing these Thankful Fives really makes my Mondays full of awesomeness.

  • I am thankful that I got to see my son last week, even if it was only a short visit.
  • I am thankful for my dad.  For too many years I took him for granted.
  • I am thankful for having a loving family.
  • I am thankful that people really do like what I write.
  • I am thankful that Fall is just around the corner.

Tell me what YOU are thankful for!

Thankful Five

It is Monday and that means it is time for Thankful Five! This is the day that I take time to think of five things I am thankful for. I love doing this because it is a great reminder to appreciate all the little things in life that we sometimes take for granted.

  1. I am thankful for the rain that kept my husband home from work on Friday.
  2. I am thankful for the wisdom that my 14 year old daughter has.
  3. I am thankful that I have learned how to set boundaries/ground rules with my son.
  4. I am thankful that summer is getting closer to being over.
  5. I am thankful for WEGO Health sponsoring Suicide Attempt Survivors on Ning.
