A little update on me

I know that I haven't posted in a few days. Things have been so crazy at work. I really hate when my rights are trampled all over, especially by people who think that they are better than everyone.

I don't know what is going to happen tomorrow. I can't really talk about it because of potential legal action but this may affect my entire life.

So, tonight as we barrel head first towards the holidays, remember those less fortunate. Help someone across the street. Open the door for someone. Smile. Be kind to those that you interact with because everyone is fighting their own battles.

Have a wonderful night.

Giving Thanks

Today, take the time to give thanks for the blessings in your life. Someone out there ALWAYS has it worse than us. I know at times it's easy to get bogged down in the minute details of life, so make a list of all that life has given to you. It's easier to do this when you make a list of all that you are grateful for.

Here's my list. I challenge you to make your own.

• I'm grateful for my friends and the opportunity to get together with so many of them last month.
• I'm grateful for my family who always supports me, even if I'm wrong.
• I'm grateful for my job that gives me a paycheck and provides food and a roof over my head.
• I'm grateful for the internet, it keeps me connected to my friends and family who live far away.
• I'm grateful for my kitties, they keep my feet warm at night and help chase away loneliness and sorrow.
• I'm so incredibly grateful for my good health insurance policy.
• I'm grateful for my good health.
• I'm grateful for the chance to have known and loved two friends who passed away this year. One taught me how to live life with your whole heart, the other taught me how to be strong when faced with adversity.
• On a lighter note, I'm thankful for coupons and the Sunday paper/sales ads and the generous people who patiently taught me how to make my tight budget stretch further.

This holiday season, reach out to someone who has less than you. Open your heart and love. Be thankful for what you have.

Have a great Thanksgiving!

In loving memory of William Joseph and Amber Denise.
