What am I thankful for:
For my healthy beautiful kids.
My loving family.
My wonderful husband.
To be Canadian.
To have supportive friends.
Every oppurtunity that life has given me.
Every smile that my kids give me.
Every laugh that my kids get out of me.
For Oil wives, helping me make new great long lasting friendships.
Those are the mushy things I am thankful for...now the "conveniences" I am thankful for:
Laundry machines...come on doing laundry by hand would SUCK. As it is it takes me all day to do a week's worth of laundry.
Dishwashers...I hate washing dishes. End of story.
Vehicles...Horse back riding is fun enough...but I can't say that I would want to do it as my single mode of transportation. Especially in -40 weather. BRRRR.
TV...I am addicted , and I am very thankful for it. haha.
Electricity...when our power went out last week for over 4 hours, it really made me appreciate it. Sitting in candlelight isn't so fun, unless you are having a romantic evening.
On the days that I am engulfed in self pity..I need to remember these things, and realize that life really isn't that bad. I have things pretty good, and I needn't take these things for granted.
