Goooooood Morning!!!! Here is the deal, I started this post way back when to remind myself of all things to be thankful for and to start the week off on the right foot.  You can share whatever you are thankful for, whether it be getting approval, having surgery, hitting goal, getting a new job, interviews for a new job, spending time with family, having breakfast served in bed....you get the drift!  Everyone should have at least ONE thing that they can be thankful for~ so share or not, but if not publicly then do so privately! Mine: 1.  Mike is safe and sound.  Baaad day yesterday over there and thankfully none of our guys were hurt.  2.  Getting to chat with Mike on Yahoo and share some time with him via the webcam so we can all see each other.  It really helps all of our spirits that we can have that time together.   3.  My kids, even though they were jumping on my last nerve yesterday~ they always seem to know when Mommy needs a hug and kiss to make me feel better.  4.  GORGEOUS weather!  I hate that this nice, cool weather isn't going to last long and we will shortly be in triple digits, but I will take for as long as it lasts. 5.  My Lynnie for always checking up on me to make sure that I am doing okay.  I love you baby girl!  Hope those migraines stay far, far away! 6.  All of you here that are a constant support for me and everyone else in all of our trials and tribulations that life brings us. I could go on and on~ but, that is it for now.  YOUR TURN! Hugs to all, Vicki

I almost got into an accident this past Saturday after meeting (for the first time) the LB coffee crew.  My steering went out on my car while I was driving it.  Pretty scary. But I was able to regain control  and pull off on a side street, and as I was stranded, Lori (my new friend from LB coffee)rode by on her bike with her boyfriend. They  sat with me until help arrived. (friend/tow truck driver)  she was so awesome.  Thank you Lori.  Ok now I am rambling.

Anyways,  I am very thankful that I didn't get in an accident.  I am also very thankful for the new friends that I met this weekend.  I am also thankful for all of old friends too.

Have a great Monday everyone

I'm thankful that my Mom came through surgery ok after having complications(sp) from PS. She has been in the hospital for a week now for a massive post op infection.

Always my favorite thread!! * I'm thankful for my family and friends. Though I've made a decision last week that they almost unanimously didn't agree with, they have stuck by me, loved me and supported me anyway. And I know they'll be there to pick up the pieces should there be pieces to pick up.  * I'm thankful for my lovely guy and the second chance we are giving our love. We both agreed we deserve it, didn't give it all it could before, and want to try to make it work. We're insanely compatible and before it was really just the timing that was off. Now it's better, and I'm so happy that we're back on the same path again.  * I'm thankful for Crystal Light. The water in my office is awful until you put some CL in there, and WHAMMO ... you have a tasty beverage.  * I'm thankful I had $170 to frivolously blow at Target last night. Mmmm new bedding! * I'm thankful that I get to breathe for another day. It's hardly in question, but I'm thankful for it nonetheless.  * I'm thankful for my pouch, though it seems to be hungier than usual lately. It's allowed me to lose 130lbs and be the skinniest I've been in decades. I had old friends not even recognize me yesterday. How awesome is that?

I continue to be thankful for my wonderful husband that makes each day a better day just by loving me.  I have been blessed with a man that loves me no matter what I weigh, how I dress, or what deoderant I use.  I am a VERY lucky woman! Cindy D.
