My new list of blessings

Since a lot of my posts have been a little negative lately, here is my list of things I am thankful for right now.

1. My new glasses. (I will add a picture soon.) Although my goofy cat already chewed on the ear piece. Cats!

2. My car is fixed! And I have my tags and paid my ticket - only $30, so not bad at all.

3. Along with that, I'm really happy with my new mechanics, Steve's Intermountain Services in Provo. They did a great job and are very fast.

4. My dad. My car repairs were way over $1000 and he insisted on paying for them, since we had several other major bills and expenses at the time. It sure feels nice to have my dad to take care of me sometimes.

5. My friends. I have been feeling sorry for myself lately and extra grumpy and stressed, and I have had so many thoughtful, sweet comments on here and on the phone and in person. I am feeling much better about things.

Those are my top blessings right now. Of course, I am also thankful for my kids and for Randy. They are great. Even with all we've been going through, it's still good to have each other.

It's a great idea, which actually does some good to us - thinking about good things in our lives.

Gratitude can go a long way! I loved your list of blessings--thanks for sharing. I'm so sorry about the visit with the doctor (assistant), and extra sorry that there is more waiting in your future. Not knowing is the worst! We'll keep you in our prayers, too.

I used to keep a grateful journal- it made me end every day on a positive note. Keep up the positive vibes!
