Aching feet

Tonight as I reflect on all that I have accomplished in this day, I have a few things that I can say I am thankful for.

Aching feet. I can't believe I am going to post this on here, but I currently have a few plantars warts on my feet. Both feet. They are being treated with acid. I have been going up and down stairs today like a mad woman. And my feet? They HURT. They are literally killing me and I most likely won't get any sleep tonight. Why am I thankful for aching feet? Because it means that I have two legs that work and that I have accomplished a great many things with them today. And also that the acid is working and I will only have to endure the pain a little while longer.

Empty totes. Because it means that my children have had and have beautiful clothing, whether new or hand-me-down, and haven't had to go without. It also means that there are other children out there who will have beautiful clothing that their parents may not be so lucky to buy. You see, these clothes that my children have outgrown are all being donated. Some to Goodwill, some to Salvation Army, some to the City Mission, and some to the Catholic Social Services. Yes. My three children have THAT MANY clothes. The sick thing? I have gone through over 15 totes today alone of their clothing. This does not include the 10+ that I went through on a weekend about 6 months ago and donated. It's sick, really.... I love eBaying for kids' clothes and I get great deals and waaaaaayyyyyy too many clothes!!!

DVR and a cold beer. Because now that my personal torture session is over, I will be sitting and watching Grey's Anatomy and a couple of soaps and it's off to bed. Only one beer.... not gonna kill the diet and I DESERVE IT!!! ;)

Last but not least.... the person(s) that can read my thankfullness and think, "Hey, yeah! I am thankful too!" at the end of what was otherwise a VERY bad day!!!
