My Grateful List

I decided that I am tired of being sad and throwing pity parties for myself. So, I decided to recall the things in this world I am most grateful for to improve my outlook on life. Maybe the list will be long, maybe short; and I am sure some things will be forgotten. But here it is in all of its glory.

1. I am grateful for my family--they have helped me in ways I never thought imaginable
2. For my friends, who have stuck by me even when I wasn't a good friend
3. My new vehicle, Lulu, for getting me where I need to be
4. For having a job, which in our economy is not something everyone has
5. For the Cleveland Show, which makes me laugh whenever I see it
6. For my grandmother for being such an amazing woman
7. For my brother who has taken me into his home, no questions asked
8. For all of you who read my blog and show an interest in my life
9. For Madonna who I have followed for over 20 years now
10. For shoes, which I love to buy, buy, buy
11. For Cd's and music to make my life more bearable during difficult times
12. For my friends who put up with me even when I'm a bitch
13. For sour candy
14. I am grateful to all the people who I have loved and have loved me back
15. For my time in Germany
16. For Michael Phelps body
17. To soccer
18. For the mindless horror movies that I love to watch
19. For cell phone, Internet and the technology that lets me stay connected to people
20 For the ones who do the things that I wish I could, help where I cannot, and say what I
don't know how.
21. Red Wine
22. Sushi
23. The I-Pod
24. A hug
25. And last on this list, though other things could be added, Carsten

  1. Your list has inspired me to write my own. And you, my dear Bill, will be on it. XX00
