I am thankful for…

 

My son and daughter:  I totally did something right because they turned out to be awesome young adults. 

My furry child: I’ve been a widow since 2008.  I adopted a lab, Scarlett O’Harry in 2009.  My dog has done more for my mental health than therapy ever could.

My health: My A1C has been excellent this past 11 months since I changed my eating habits and started exercising.  I feel better about my body at age 44 than I ever did in my 30’s.

My job:  I am most fortunate to have a job that I love.

My sense of humor:  God gave me the gift to make myself and others around me laugh even in the darkest hours. 

Social Media: You guys, Facebook and MyFitnessPal friends are great.  You encourage me to make good choices and applaud my progress along the way.  I don’t feel like I’m making this journey alone.

For all this and more, I am truly grateful.
