I'm going to be totally honest here and confess that I actually really hate Thanksgiving. It's not the whole concept of gathering around and being thankful and all, it's the cleaning and cooking that gets done before, the mass of family I'd rather not deal with, a spread of food I don't really care for and football all day long. Now I can add to that the apparent craziness that comes over the kids and I basically can't wait for the day to be over. However, I am thankful for many things in my life so in the spirit of this poorly executed holiday here are the things I am thankful for:
- I'm thankful for my mother for getting me to finally realize that I deserve better then what I was getting from my marriage. Without her I'd probably still be putting all with all the abuse and crap I was getting from my Ex.
- I'm thankful for my parents for rearranging their entire lives and home so my kids and I could move in to their house upstairs and try to get my feet on the ground again. It's a sacrifice for all involved but it's going to make things better in the long run.
- I'm thankful for my boyfriend, who is now my ex boyfriend, for understanding why I need to not be in a relationship right now. I'm thankful that he can just be my friend without being totally nuts about it.
- I'm thankful my sex drive has returned!!! Actually it was never gone, I was just with someone who was a total turn off. Now that I'm single I'm thankful for my vibrator. :)
- Lastly, I'm thankful for my children who are wonderful and love me regardless of anything else. They keep me on my toes and remind me why I do what I do and make life worth living.
