still true




I found this while cleaning out some files today ... and it is still as true today as it was 2 years ago!  Thought I would share it with you



Today I am thankful
I am thankful for the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato, because it means he is home with me.
I am thankful for the daughter that calls when she is bored or mad or needs to borrow something , because it means she still needs her mama.
I am thankful for the phone ringing in the best part of the movie because that means my mom and dad are still with me.
I am grateful for the chat box on my phone and computer because that means I can stay connected with my cousin who lives so far away.
I am thankful for the mess and toys to clean up when the grandson leaves, because that means I got to spend time with him.
I am thankful for the taxes I pay because it means I am employed.
I am thankful for the bed that needs to be made because it means I have a warm safe place to sleep.
I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug because that means I have enough to eat.
I am thankful for the lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, bathrooms that need scrubbing and the carpet that needs vacuuming because that means I have a home
I am thankful for all the complaining I hear about the government because that means we have freedoms
I am thankful for the parking spot I found at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking and I have been blessed with transportation
I am thankful for the huge heating bill because that means I am warm
I am thankful for the never ending piles of laundry that needs to be washed, folded and put away because it means I have clothes to wear.
I am thankful the alarm that goes off too early in the morning hour because it means I have a job.
I am thankful that I can read this every day because that means I am alive!
