A day late

Okay, I have been properly reminded that my life is, in fact, worth appreciating. Lately, I seem to be complaining on a daily basis about this thing or that thing. I never intended this blog to become a whine-fest. After all, if I wish to whine, all I have to do is post over at Phantom Scribbler's blog and not only get the whine off my chest, but win fabulous prizes!

The truth is; my life is pretty damn good. Let's review:

• A husband who loves me and appreciates me
  
• Two kids who both have jobs, are reasonably polite, don't abuse any substances, and are happy
  
• A job that challenges me, but doesn't unduly stress me out
  
• A family that loves me, even if they do sometimes make me crazy
  
• Friends; local, long-distance and of the creepy-Internet-variety
  
• A dog who thinks the sun rises and sets with me
  
• More toys than any one human being really needs
  
• Regular trips to exciting places with someone I love
  
• Pretty clothes
  
• Good food
  
• My health
  
• The ability to laugh at life

This list could really go on and on. I have much to be thankful for. So, to all of you who are a part of my Wonderful Life, I raise a glass.
