I'm grateful to have a slew of things to be grateful for even when things aren't so great.

I'm grateful to know that it's better to focus on the things that are working in my life than to focus on those that are not.

I'm grateful that the above can sometimes provide miraculous results. Situations that seem un-fixable are suddenly fixed!

I'm grateful for photographs and memories. Vacations last forever when you can look through the photos again.

I'm grateful for my Freddies, who always know how to say the right thing to make a girl feel better. Eff all of you! Tee hee!

I'm grateful for my job, all the super perks (free education, benefits, paid snow days, vacation time, etc.)that go along with it and I'm especially grateful for my awesome boss! This week she gave me roses, a promotion, a raise and a box of crayons (silly scented ones!). It does not get much better than that!

My days seem to get busier and are starting to be one big blur. That means it's time to RELAX, take it easy, smell the roses.

I am grateful for a few peaceful moments in the morning to read the paper and drink my coffee.

I am grateful for the roses my boss gave me, just because she appreciates me.

I am grateful for my husband's idea to go out for dessert. Hot chocolate in a fancy cup is ooh, la, la!

I am grateful for half.com (and selling every text book I posted!).

I am grateful when I get to see proof that "honesty is the best policy".
