Always look on the bright side of life...

So I've been in a pretty crappy mood today. I won't go into it, but my job is wearing on me.  The winter has reached its zenith of miserableness.  I'm tired, my laundry is piling up again, something smells bad in my car and I can't find it... Yadda yadda yadda.

Who needs that in their life?

So I've decided to write down 5 specific things I am glad for:

1.  I have two super-smart, funny, creative, healthy, good-lookin' kids who love their mama.

2.  Mexican food.  Hot, spicy, cheesy, salty, deeeelicious!

3.  Friends who won't let you eat Mexican food every day.  And who don't judge me when I do.

4.  My family loves me, even with all my faults.  I can't seem to run them off, though I have evidently tried a time or two (or three).

5.  I have some pretty cool stuff to call my own: great gadgets and gizmos, yarn out the wazoo, beads & jewelry stuff, my new Bamboo tablet, my awesome laptop...  And the talent to be able to do something with them.  I am not the most talented, I am not the most imaginative or creative.  But I do have some talent and I do have some skills, and I put them to good use from time to time.

PS I love Monty Python.
