My Mom, Karen, who can be a real pain in the behind sometimes :-) nominated me for a positive thoughts challenge. Not being one to jump right into things, I slept on it for a while. I dont sleep much so here we are, a couple weeks later, and Im ready. Id also like to add that I usually dont do exactly what Im told so Im morphing it into a gratitude challenge. We might not be able to find much to be positive about sometimes but, any day were still sucking air we have at least one thing to be grateful for. So for 5 days, 3 things Im grateful for each day and 2 nominees per day. Things Im grateful for: 1. Me. I dont say this often. Never in public. I have my issues but I have even more to be thankful for. Im very healthy, fit, flexible and I eat right; without trying very hard. Im smart. Im funny. Im honest. I care about everything I do. I am very compassionate. 2. My wife Margaret. I dont know if I could keep your attention through her entire list of virtues, why she means so much to me and why I could never possibly adequately express my gratitude for her. She could retire any day now but shes at work right now, at the same place shes been for 35 years, providing the foundation our family has been built on. She is a great mother, loving, fun, straight-forward, sweet and passionate and my very best friend. She has been a hospice volunteer for many years, helping dying people and their families. She has more heart than I can comprehend. 3. My daughters, Jessica and Leah. My little girls have suddenly become grown women. They are both so strong in their own ways. I am SO proud of both of them. As long as I have your attention girls, I nominate you two today. Yes, Jessica and Leah, I mean you :-)
