Thankful Thursday -- The Friday Edition

  • Vivian - My aunt Vivian loves my Thankful Thursday posts more than anything else I write. And since I have not been in a very thankful mode lately, I have been slacking on the TT posts. I have been busy and all that stuff... But I figured I could have an attitude adjustment just for Vivian. She is worth it, and she deserves it. (Besides if I miss too many more of these she might call my dad, and I don't want worry the pops.)
  • Stuck - And now I am stuck... can I just be thankful for my Aunt Vivian?
  • Wait! - Oh I do have something to be thankful for... Piperlime. Oh I just love shoes and new ones at that. Is this too shallow?
  • Really - Ok now for some seriousness. Seriously I love my Aunt Vivian. I haven't seen her in a few months and would love to go to Texas for a little family time. I love my entire family and I am so thankful for them. My brothers seemed to enjoy the posts I wrote about them. I hope they know I love them with all my heart. I love my Pops and my Brenda Mom too.
  • Truth - The truth is I have been feeling the blahs lately and it stinks because it is so contrary to who I really am/ who I really want to be. I haven't had a heart full of gratitude even though I can see that I am richly blessed. I have a fantastic family who loves me whole heartedly and is very good to me even through the mood swings. I have a wonderful home that I enjoy immensely and that is so full of love. My husband loves his career, and a secure job and job satisfaction are biggies, no matter what the economy. I have so many things that bring me joy in my every day life, like really good friends. So just maybe if we can all keep putting up with Her Royal Grumpiness, for hopefully not much longer, I can cget back to being me...

New shoes are not shallow! The whole world looks better when you can experience them with a new pair of shoes. Sometimes those baby blues are hard to kick. We'd love to kidnap those kids some afternoon if that would help!

We need to talk sister! I've just about decided that the irritable, feisty, blue Nattie is who I really am not. And Victor's gotta live with it. Poor guy.

Chin up. You're one of the more amazing women to walk this earth.

Piperlime is the bomb! Do people still say that anymore... "the bomb"?

I'm so sorry you're feeling down. Having the baby blues, or whatever is so hard! I hope you feel better soon.
