I am Thankful

One of the pink ladybugs posted this email. This email came at the perfect time. I'm still sad my Nena is gone but I need to focus on how special she made my life! Well read and share bloggers. This email takes the negative and turns it into a positive. Great email Dan!!!!!!!!!

I am thankful for the wife who says, "Hot dogs for supper"

Because she is home with me, not someone else.

I am thankful for the teenager who is complaining about doing dishes,

Because she is at home and not out on the streets.

I am thankful for the taxes I pay,

Because it means I am employed.

I am thankful for the mess to clean after a party,

Because it means I have been surrounded by friends.

I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug,

Because it means I have enough to eat.

I am thankful for my shadow that watches me work,

Because it means I am out in the sunshine.

I am thankful for a lawn to mow, windows to clean and gutters to fix,

Because it means I have a home.

I am thankful for the complaining I hear about the government,

Because it means we have freedom of speech.

I am thankful for the parking spot I find at the far end of the

parking lot,

Because it means I am able to walk and I have been blessed with

transportation.

I am thankful for my huge heating bill,

Because it means I am warm.

I am thankful for the pile of laundry and ironing,

Because it means I have clothes to wear.

I am thankful for weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day,

Because it means I have been able to work.

I am thankful for the alarm that rings early in the morning hours,

Because it means I am alive.

Iam thankful for this always getting emails from this group

Because it means I am a member of the greatest company in the scented

candle industry.
