Day 5 of the Gratitude challenge

Take five minutes to write about how grateful you are for all of the wonderful things that you currently have in


your life. Don’t long for what you don’t possess—instead, take stock of all the blessings you already enjoy...
 
So its been a while since i started this, but i stumbled upon it and decided to continue what i started...
 
I am grateful for everything that i currently have in my life... Everything i have is a blessing that has been given to me from God. My family, friends and physical belongings are all part of that. As i sit here and write this and listen to my son cry his self to sleep, i think about how grateful that i am, to have that son that is crying, how grateful i am to have the house i am sitting in, and the computer that i am writing on, and the internet service that allows me to share this with anyone reading it. I am immensely grateful for everything that i have.

Learning to live

So i have discovered that ever since Zack came home from Iraq, that I am having to find more and more things to do during the day to keep me occupied. Before, i could just run to Ashley's house and we could watch tv together, and i wouldnt be alone, and i would have entertainment, and Chase and Kailyn would play together. Now, Ashley has moved on to a new post at Fort Rucker, and I am left here left to my own devices... haha. Chase has recently taking a liking to Elmo, so i am now stuck with Elmo playing all day long, simply because it keeps him calm, and out of my hair for attention. Zack and I have decided that he has taken to my cling syndrome as Z so affectionally refers to it. He constantly wants attention or to be picked up. He actually sat leaning agains Zacks leg while he was getting dressed today because Zack wouldnt pick him up. He just wants to be touched, and i can sympathise with him, simply because i feel the same way 95 percent of the day. lol. Chase is getting bigger and wants to play more and sleep less, which is causing me to have more headaches, and get less accomplished throughout the day. :)
