- I am thankful for coffee. It gets me through my day. (I'm drinking my second cup, so it needs to get some recognition)
- I am thankful I have such a wide range of friends. No matter what my problem, I know I have at least one friend who has been there and can give me words of wisdom or comfort.
- I am thankful that my husband works as hard as he does to provide for us. It is because of his hard work that I can stay home and focus on raising our family.
- I am thankful for music. No matter what mood I am in, there is song to fit it.

- I am thankful for my health and the health of my family. Though I am having medical issues, I know there are people in a lot more pain than I am.
- I am thankful for my house. It's too small. The plumbing is bad. Things are falling apart. However, it's ours. We make this house a home. It provides a safe place to raise our family.
- I am thankful for my neighbors. Even if we could move, I don't know if I'd want to leave my neighbors. I have some of the best neighbors in the world.
- I am thankful for my puppy. Though he is neurotic and has many issues, he's our first baby. He loves us unconditionally.

'Tis the season for giving thanks. I'm having a rough morning so far staying positive (but maybe the coffee just hasn't kicked in). Because of this, I have decided to make a list of 24 things I am thankful for, other than the given of my family, to, hopefully, get me back on a positive track. So here it goes.
