I am THANKFUL!

I have realized this week that I have been a whiner. Life have been hard lately, well, let me rephrase that. My JOB has been hard lately. Has really felt like a job and not a love. Anyways, so I have been complaining about it all the time and I think it is making the whole thing worse. SO....today is THANKFUL day!
