(((((Family)))))

Today (7-14-08) has been a day of reflections for me, as it is my 35th wedding anniversary. I have decided that I should make a list of things I am thankful for.

1. I am truly thankful for a husband that loves me.

2. I am thankful for the beautiful daughter we have.

3. I am thankful for my home and my family.

4. I am thankful for Al Anon which has given me a reason to be thankful.

5. I am thankful that I am no longer controlled by my husbands drinking, but
    that I have trusted my life into the control of my HP.

6. I am thankful for my MIP family who understand what I have gone through,
    and continue to go through, and have supported me.

7. I am thankful that for the first time in a very long time I am truly happy and
    content with my life.

Thanks for always being there to listen whenever I need a listening ear my ((((family))))

Love,

Claudia aww

Aloha Claudia!

That is real ESH!!  You have found the light at the end of the tunnel.  Thanks
for sharing it.  Gratitudes are the proof that you are working your program and
that it is working for you also.  I'm gonna go practice this myself.  What better
thing to do?

(((((hugs))))) smile
