Blessings

Hope you had a great weekend! We did, why you ask? We did mostly nothing, yep, we lounged and we lounged and we lounged. Just the two of us, I did a little work here and there but for the majority of the weekend we did nothing. Well, we did play wii, read the paper, surfed the net, watched movies and we said NO to house repairs! It was great!

Something else that I have been doing is being "Thankful" for my blessings. I know it's not Thanksgiving but we should try our best to be Thankful out loud all year long not just around Turkey Day. OK, so back to my blessings, my husband and family who love me unconditionally. The friends who have stuck by me even if they don't always agree with my personality traits, because they love me unconditionally. My job, with times the way they are, I am so Thankful to have the job that I have even if at times I feel like it's time for a change. My home, I am thankful for the home that my husband has provided for us. Mostly, I am Thankful for my husband, we have been married for just over a year and I am so proud to be his wife. Because I met him just before I turned 40, I had the chance to meet many possible Mr. Rights who turned out to be mostly Mr. Wrongs. Don't get me wrong, many of them had some good traits but they weren't meant to be my partner, my best friend, my true love. It is amazing how many times we think we have met the right one only to find out that they aren't. I spent so many years allowing myself to date the wrong type of men. I was great at seeing the mismatches of my friends but was often blind to my own. The only thing that is good from all that is that I knew to walk away, sometimes a lot later than I should have but the point is, I walked away. And for that I am thankful, so very thankful!
