Can we do a "Thankful Thursday" thread?
I'm feeling like I'm moving into a negative mood, for no reason. I need to remind myself of the good things in life...
I'm thankful for my husband, who works his tail off and takes care of us, provides for us, and supports me (even though I don't always feel it, I know it's true).
I'm thankful for my two boys who are healthy.
I'm thankful for air conditioning

Re: Can we do a "Thankful Thursday" thread?
I'm thankful for my job even though I can't wait until 4:00 to come so I can leave!!
I'm thankful for my husband and my family.
I'm thankful for my health and my families health
I'm thankful for my sweet little niece that just turned 7 and how much of her mom I see in her even though she never had the chance to know her mom.
ETA: I too am thankful for air conditioning. I grew up in a house without air and I remember how misearrable that was!
I'm thankful for power to run the A/C (we've had problems over the last yr w/our power always going out & it went out last week, when it was cooler at least).
I'm thankful for DH having a job, even if he's gone M-F, he's doing it to provide for us & we're thankful for Skype!
I'm thankful for friends who helped me w/the kids as I broke down last at our church picnic. Just because DH is gone doesn't mean it's always easy & I just had a moment yesterday.
Thankful for our new neighbor, baby Jackson, Joshua will have a buddy to play!
I'm thankful for my hard working husband, who works 10 hour days and goes to school as well.
I'm thankful for my beautiful daughter who makes me smile every day. I'm super blessed to be pregnant with another daughter, and if I'm lucky she'll be just like her big sister.
I'm thankful for my family and friends in general, who are super supportive and always there for me when I need them.
I'm super thankful for our window air conditioners!!
Sooo much to be thankful for.
At the moment I'm most thankful that this pregnancy has been happy and healthy to date. I'm thankful that both DH and I are employed and were able to save money for this move. I'm thankful that we found a new house and didn't have to move our things twice. I'm thankful that DH has taken on the majority of this move and unpacking and such. And I too am thankful for A/C!
I have been feeling the same way lately! Good post..
I am thankful for my daughter, who is getting bigger and smarter everyday. She makes me smile when ever I think about her.
I am thankful for my friends, I really would be lost without them!
I am very thankfurl that we have central and have not lost our power this week.
Aw, great idea. My boss passed away this week and I just got back from the services this afternoon, and I haven't really been able to express how much I appreciate everything that she did for me.
She truly has changed my life. I am so thankful that she took time out of her schedule to mentor me and teach me. I am thankful for the confidence that she had in me to allow me to be confident in myself, in both the work that I do and the person that I have become. I wish that I had more time with her, because I feel like there is a ton more that she could have taught me. But I am so thankful to be surrounded by all of the wonderful people in my office who have had learned from her and who will be able and willing to continue to teach me.
(I am also thankful for the air conditioning

I am a little late to the party, but it's always good to be thankful:
I am thankful for having found my FI. After a failed marriage, I never thought I would be able to find someone that loved me as much as he does. I can honestly say that I have never been happier in my entire life, and I never thought I would have that. Plus, beyond the simple fact that he is in my life, I am thankful for everything that he does for me.
I am thankful that I have an amazing family that supports me in all facets of my life. With my grandmother's passing, I am particularly thankful that she got to meet FI, thought he was wonderful, and performed an impromptu (and nonlegal) wedding ceremony for us over Memorial Day weekend in TN. She tolds us we didn't need expensive rings and a big wedding, and just slipped two small rubber bands on our fingers. (It still makes me tear up just thinking about it.)
I am thankful for my amazing dog. I am thankful for my friends. I am thankful for my central air.
I teared up at work reading this, I really wish my grandmother had gotten a chance to meet my H before she passed. What a special moment that was for the 2 of you!
