What a delightful thread Pam, thank you!

There are so many things in my life I am thankful for.

Most of all, my family. Especially my kids, their kids, and the knuckle head sitting across the room from me.

All of the people that have touched my life. Every single one.

The way my life has evolved from lost and dirt poor, not comfortable in my own skin to less poor and very happy with me.

My health and strength, both mentally and physically.

The way my brain works. It used to cause me a lot of problems, still does on occasion, but now that I recognize it's oddities, I've learned to see it as positive rather than negative.

Humour, in myself and others. There isn't much that happens I cannot find a way to get a laugh out of it.......if just for myself. Which ties into the strong thread of constant joy that always runs through my life. Even in times of great difficulty, I have joy.

With those things.......everything else is possible.

i am thankful for my boy, he's all i've got to show for the last 39 years and he's amazing.

for the rain that stopped the muck heap catching fire when the twats tried to burn my stables down with my mare still inside.

for paracetamol, tissues, and koff candy twist that are helping me through my cold.

for the very few people around me who actually care enough to check in and ask how i am when things are shit.

for my car.

for my home while i still have it.

for the little moments such as; the robin at my field coming to me when i call him, a text wishing me a good day, the boy making me a drink and such that make the day better.

there's alot more i could put here with some thought. i think i could everyday, but sometimes i lose sight as the crap takes over.

good thread!

I am thankful for the GIFT of family - those by blood and those of the heart.

I am thankful for another day to pursue my dream of a college education - no matter how long it takes.

I am thankful for having "enough" today. I have more than some and less than others, but I have "enough".

I am thankful for being part of this amazing community, with all its quirky participants. You make me think.....and dream.
