[cyber-sibes]

I'm thankful for so many things:

life & health,
family & friends,
a home, a job, and food,
and my precious furkids...

But I'm especially thankful this year that my husband was able to deal with his heart problems- we didn't know about his condition, and he could have dropped dead at any moment. I'm very thankful we had health insurance. (I hope that doesn't sound trite or corny, but after seeing the bills, I really am grateful!) I'm thankful that his new job is working out well.

I'm glad that there is a Power much much greater than me, keeping order in the Universe. ;)

[joycenalex]

i've been thinking about what i'm grateful for, at one point, i was listing 3 things daily, sometimes it was simple like the coffee was perfect tasting this morning, to alex only had 3 seizures today, to, well i didn't slap anyone at work. i know i'm a very richly blessed woman. i sleep warm, safe and flat everynight. my critters and i have food, there is gas in my car, my bills are being paid this week, and i have enough to share with others. i have hands that work, a mind that usually works and there will be some time this week to go to the park in the middle of the day and play in the sunshine. i got everything, and i know it. thanks g-d.

[Giselle]

Well lets see, my health is a little shaky but I am greatful to be alive. I am blessed with wonderful friends, some I have had 35 years having met them in junior high. My three wonderful children, my family, my pets, my sanity and sense of humor. And then there is tomorrow, which good or bad is always a surprise.

[lovingpaws]

I'm thankful for:
my wonderful husband, who also shares in & understands my love of animals,
our cozy little home, our families and health, my ''dogchildren" and a loving God that gives us strength & peace that passes our understanding to go through the hard times as well as blessing us with the good times, and I'm thankful He has shown me animals will be in Heaven, & in case I get doubts, I always seem to get reminders. :D

[DJFyrewolf36]
