Thankful Thursday

I haven't done one of these in a while and I just felt i needed to do one:

I am thankful for my sister Lauren. She helped me out the last month with some food. She doesn't have to do this but she does. I am excited for her to get back from California. I have missed her and the kiddies.

I am thankful for a house to live in and that nothing was damaged in the flood.

I am thankful for how Positive Dan is. He always tries to see the positive.

I am thankful for all my shows agian. Yes I know that might be pathetic to some of you but I don't have much to do. And its nice to escape from reality for a bit.

I am thankful for our jobs. They pay the bills and keep us fed. It made me realize how blesssed we are.

Update

Sorry its been a while since I have done a blog. I can't believe its 2010. This year started out kind of crappy. On New Years day i woke up at 7am just to go to the bathroom. Well when I stepped out into the hall it was wet. So i walked down the hall to the bathroom and there was tons of water everywhere and it was coming from the window well. So I had to call my neigbors upstairs and let them know wht was going on. So pretty all day til about 2 we were ripping up the carpet and moving everything. None of our stuff goet damgaged so that was a good thing. So this week they had to tear out the sheetrock in the kitchen, bathroom and two bedrooms. So slowly but surely or house will be put back together. But the nice thing is we will have all new paint and carpet and it will feel like a new house.

Dan also started school in December. He is doing the Universtiy of Phoenix Online. And he is really liking it. We were able to get loans and a grant so that is a huge blessing. Now Dan can finish up and get his Bachelors in Business Mangament.
I have decided to start doing Weight Watchers again. I just really want to lose the 15 more pounds. I did really good at maintaining it and keeping most of it off. I have been going walking and exercising. And I really want to get new clothes from my mom. So i am going to work really hard again, and I Know that I can do it.

Things are going well for us. I am very grateful that I have my job and Dan has his. We are not rich but our needs are definetly being taken care of. Thanks to my sister Lauren too she helped us so much. Hopefully soon I will be pregnant. Its been a hard few months with the miscarriage and all but I know that God is with me.

Thats all for now.....
