Things to give thanks for...

It's Thanksgiving. As much as this holiday doesn't mean anything to me sentimentally, I am for the first time realizing the things I need to be thankful for.

It's time for a positive post. Some positive thoughts. After all, this is a mood lifter as well. It's a time to not have my head spinning the way it has been lately. I'm going to try to be thinking only positive things- ACE Kelsey would be proud of me. Positive focus. Lame attempt at trying to cheer myself up from the whirlwind that I've been in.

List of positives ( things I am thankful for)
I wish I could easily say my health, my mind and my soul...but those aren't in the best of shape at the moment soo...
My parents
My sister
My amazing friends that I can't even start to list off because this would become the world's longest post.
Financial stability- thanks to my wonderful parents. 
Continuously being able to find jobs
Nancy M
Amy SB
My doctors- my treatment team
Food ( i know, shocker )
Pumpkin, Marbelle ( kitties- bring on the cat lady jokes )
Having a college degree- making it through the 4 years
Dr. Moore
Being able to REALIZE i have things to be thankful for
My apartment
Central Air, Heating
A working car
Music, Books and TV to take shit off my mind.
uhm... there has got to be more...

Okay, I'm going to make a small exception here on the positive post. This was hard and that really saddens me. okay, taking on a challenge for as much as long as I can- being positive that I can make it through.

    The thing that I thought of today, and something I'm going to post in a minute. We should be thankful to be alive, even with the crazy. ;)

    I love that you could post so many positive things. even if you had to really think, they were there! that's the upside, I suppose =]

    Also, I love your writing style and the way you express yourself. Be thankful for your words, because they help others <3
