The Lucky One

Some reflections...

I am lucky to....

  • Have a job worth going to every day
  • Have a mother who I genuinely enjoy spending time with and calling no less than 5 times a day
  • Sit in the comfort of my own home in pj pants and a tank top like I am now, with my computer in my lap listening to Rod Stewart :)
  • Call this giant ogre of an animal sleeping next to me my dog.  (And if this dog isn't a cuddler, I don't know what is!)
  • Work with people that make me laugh and who care about me, as I care about them
  • Be able to snuggle up in a nice, warm bed night after night 
  • Have a bachelor's degree under my belt
  • Be insured 
  • Have three healthy nephews 
  • Love both my step-parents
  • Have gotten the chance to wake up over 11,000 times in my life so far
  • Breathe fresh air
  • Appreciate good music
  • Know love, but to also know loss
I'm just in the mindset of feeling grateful for things in my life.  Not material things - but just the things I don't even have to think about - they are just there.
