Feeling LUCKY and being THANKFUL...

There are days when I don't feel very lucky, afterall sometimes things just don't work out like you had hoped. There are days when the windshield wipers break while it's raining, a gallon of milk spills all over the floor or you have a load of laundry in the washer but there's no detergent. Yep, life happens and sometimes it just kinda stinks.

But I suppose if wallowing in one's own self-pity isn't an option then looking at what's right and being thankful to be lucky is the best option of all. So... here's why I feel LUCKY and am very THANKFUL...

• THANKFUL to have the sweetest and most loving daughter in the world...
• THANKFUL my Mom never gave up on me...
• THANKFUL to have a husband who is supportive and caring during one of the most difficult times in my life...
• LUCKY to have found friends who accept me and all my warts...
• THANKFUL to have grown up with the right lessons in my life...
• THANKFUL that the Lord forgives...
• LUCKY to have 5 black cats who all have awesome purr boxes...
• THANKFUL for my job that most days isn't "just a job"...
• LUCKY to have students who care - about important things - not just what they are going to do on a Saturday night...
• THANKFUL for having family who are always around, love me and are just a click away...
• THANKFUL for my health - it really could be worse...
• THANKFUL and LUCKY TO HAVE YET ANOTHER DAY...
• LUCKY to have been born in the United States of America...
• THANKFUL to know the difference between right and wrong...
• THANKFUL to have the chance to express myself without fear...
• LUCKY and THANKFUL to live to see another day...

When life gives you lemons - you can THANKFULLY make lemonade and be thrilled for a little LUCK as well! :D

Buckeye Treasury for a Bulldawg???

Yep... it's hard to believe that a loyal and true Georgia Bulldog is in a Ohio State Buckeye treasury! A pair of my earrings made it into SignatureSterling's "Scarlet and Gray - All The Way" treasury! You see Sue (SignatureSterling) and I have an agreement... she cheers for my Georgia Bulldawgs and I cheer for OSU - as long as they aren't playing each other!! LOL! I think that's a pretty good arrangement, don't you? We are in different conferences afterall...

And while I hope both our teams do well this year, I hope we never have to meet up against one another! And even though I'm a Bulldawg, THANKS to Sue for thinking I fit right in with all those Buckeyes!! :)

Sue's treasury expires Saturday evening - so have a look before it's too late! And while you're at it, stop in and visit her shop too. She has all sorts of beautiful items including Ohio State baubles!
