I am thankful for...

I am thankful for…
…my health.
Yes I am overweight (according to my BMI obese, but almost out of that range!) and in the process of quitting smoking, but I still have my health. And the weight and smoking are fixable. I am not sick, I am able to walk, I am able to work out, I am able to quit smoking, and I am able to fix the weight.
…my family.
I have a wonderful family that supports me and takes care of me. I have parents and a grandmother who will do everything in their power to make sure that I am ok. I have and brother and a niece and nephew that I wish I was able to see more often. I have a wonderful boyfriend and another whole family through him that is there for me.
…my friends.
Both in the 3-D world and online, I have friends who I can turn to with anything. Many have been there through some of the worst times for me.
…my home.
This will be my first holiday season in my own house! I am excited to decorate and thankful to be able to have my own home.
…my freedom.
Freedom to be who I want to be and do what I want to do. I am especially thankful to all of the men and women who make that possible and who give up all of these things that I am thankful for to ensure that I keep that freedom.
Happy Thanksgiving!
