counting my blessings


I have found that this blog has become a great way for me to vent my frustrations, as there are so many of them lately. However, I know that I am very blessed at this time in my life. I have a wonderful, sweet, loving husband. We are financially OK in this low economic time. Although I'm nauseous a lot of the time and certain foods sound gross to me, at least I have food to eat. I have a sweet little dog who keeps me company - and keeps me on my toes. She's entertaining, fun, and she lays with me when I don't feel good. I live in a beautiful part of the country, and although it rains a lot now, in a few weeks it will most likely stop doing that - and be perfect and sunny all of the time for months. I have fantastic friends here in CA who moved here from Cincinnati too - How lucky was that? I have a great family - who I don't see often enough, but I know they are there whenever I need them. I miss them, but we're only a plane ride away or a phone call. or email. That's a lot to be thankful for. Whenever I am feeling sorry for myself I should try to think of these things... Oh, and - maybe most important of all - I have a baby growing inside me. I have to focus on the light at the end of the tunnel... or birth canal... or whatever.
