on being grateful

everyone seems to be compiling a list so i shall too.  i am nothing if not a stowaway on bandwagons of this sort.

i give eternal thanks for:

-my healthy, beautiful body (even when i don't feel particularly healthy or beautiful)
-my home that makes me feel safe and at peace

-my job

-good tv
-the ability to think and act for myself, the ability to know to take responsibility when i am responsible
-poetic license
-rainbow sherbet (the raspberry, orange and lime kind)
-my husband who is handy and smart and witty and funny and handsome (and my bestest friend, my favorite of all favorites)
-my cats (who share so much love with me everyday it borders on ridiculous)
-my family
-my grandma who has always made me feel like a shining star
-the varied and wonderful friends i am lucky enough to call my own
-wafer cookies
-good literature
