Time Flies When You're .........huh?

Wow! Has a week gone by already? Thursdays are my favorite posts anyway. I need to have one whole week of Thursdays and that way you can see into my "happy" world. Sounds crazy coming from someone going through what I'm going through, right? My situation is not so bad and I remind myself of that everyday. So while I may be experiencing the ugly "D" word, I do it with a smile on my face because life is too short. Here are some of the things that help me stay this way:

1. I am thankful to have the coolest three year olds in the world.

2. I am thankful for the friendship I have with the man that helped me make the coolest three year olds in the world. Since we are bound together for life, we might as well make the best of it.

3. I am thankful for opening my eyes and realizing that just because we are parents to the same children doesn't mean we have to pretend to be "husband and wife" anymore, "mommy and daddy" will do just fine.

4. I am thankful for my parents who have graciously taken my super cool three year olds for the next two nights. What to do! What to do!

5. I am thankful for the new friends I have made through this separation process. They are super fabulous! And we have a great weekend planned!!!!

Happy Living All!

I'm going to make my own list and put it on my fridge. Thanks for the inspiration, Raina!

Okay, so you are thankful for "new" friends, what about us "old" friends? : ) I may not be able to get out as much (due to the old ball and chains..the ball being the hubby and the chains being the three little muchkins) but I love you all the same and will be here for you throughout everything! I am loving your posts! Everyone, no matter what their situation is in their lives, can be inspited by your attitude!! Love you mucho!

Sorry, can't type well...I mean inspired, not inspited. Couldn't change it after I posted it. : )
