Thanksgiving

It's hard for me not to become too comsumed with the holidays and overlook the little things that I am thankful for, or at least what I should be thankful for. I get so engulfed in getting that one special item that would make that one special person so exstatic and rush home from work to do to x-mas lights or whatever is necessary to set the holiday atmoshere in my house.
Yet I never take the time to be thankful for the things that are here today when I wake up in the morning with no effort. It's right in my reach. Its just here.
Thank you God for the bed that I sleep in and even though I had someone snoring in my ear the whole night I wouldn't trade it for the world because it lets me know that he's still there....thank you for the hot shower I can take and the lovely invention of make-up yay...because God forbid anyone should have to see me without it. Thank you God for the breakfast I eat and the car I can drive that takes me to work...which I am very blessed to have. Thank you for the opportunity to write this blog while I am at work....lucky....I am very blessed to have a job like this one.
Thank you God that I have family to go home to and a son to great me at the door, sometimes not even with a kiss but a request because he's hungry. Thank you God that I have food to feed him. Thank you God for my parents and their health because God we both know the world couldn't go around if they weren't here for me....(selfish).
Thank you God for all the little things that you provide so that my life can continue with no interuptions. Thank you God for my life and thank you God for loving me, believing in me, encouraging me, accepting me, keeping me from the things that are no benefit to me, guiding me, answering my prayers (patience is virtue), and thank you for my destiny. I know with you by my side I will never be without...I am hopeful because of you God.
Thank you
Me

Monday

Monday, Monday, Monday...such a blah....but why...It's my mindset I guess.

Have you ever noticed when you expect something like a bad hair day or getting stuck in traffic...or whatever...it usually happens....

I've been focusing on my mindset lately. It's funny how you can give 2 different people the exact same senario and yet come out with 2 different conclucions..
Well, it isn't exactly science...but sometimes expecting the worst invites the worst and expecting the best brings the best. You are probably thinking that expecting the best will initiate a disappointment but thats really not the truth unless you are a pesimist and again expecting to be disappointed.

So this lovely Monday morning, which I have dreaded since I closed my eyes last night and began to dread again when the alarm interupted my dreams this morning, I've decided that today was going to be an easy going day...and for all those who don't like math I have 2 assignments due at 2pm today over some stuff that appears very foreign to me...despite my headache (which I am not expecting) I will complete these assignments and my day will be great...

Pretty good attitude huh!!!

Lets see how it is at the end of the damn math assignment!!!....I might just turn into the pessimist:(

Math just does it to me...
