All I've seen this morning is whining about your situation. Blah blah blah. Time to shoot some rainbows and sunshine straight to where the good Lord split you.

Things I'm happy for:

- I have a job.
- I have a car.
- I have money. ...ish
- I have a man friend with a libido to challenge Ron Jeremy (He was Ron for Halloween a few years ago... yikes.)
- I have beer.
- I have a family that doesn't suck most often times.
- I'm moving into my OWN apartment next weekend.
- I have clothes that fit.

..hmm. think I'm about all rainbowed out. Your turn!

    Honestly, my life is a bit of a turd right now since my husband and I are both unemployed...but I've still got rainbows and sunshine!

    I have healthy food in my refrigerator.
    I have an amazing sweet 5 year old son.
    I have a good husband who works hard (when he's employed, haha)
    I have amazing friends and family who have been there for me in good times and bad.
    I have a warm cozy house.
    I have an awesome church to go to.
    I am thankful to be unemployed because I get the privilege of spending more time with my family, friends and I'll get to work out more often!
    I could go on. We had a speaker at a Christmas event at my church this year who had grown up in England during WWII. She said one thing her mother taught her was to live well in the midst of even impossible situations. She finally put to words something I feel like I have always tried to do, be poised and appreciate what you do have even when life is crap!

    *My job pays for school & books.
    *I have an amazingly smart & supportive boyfriend of 5 years now.

    I have a mother that will cry with me when i eff up instead of feed me lectures.
    I have a father that will drive with no complaints at 3 in the morning to pull my car out of a ditch.
    I have a protective younger brother that's not afraid to use the trigger if needed for me.
    I rent a nice house from my friend (which means i have the power or lowering rent myselfif i'm struggling without him getting mad).
    I've had the same best friends since grade school, who are too awesome to leave me.
    I have a very un-perfect boyfriend of 2 years, but is always there when i need him most and understands me more than anyone.
    I live with an eating disorder, but it's opened my eyes and good things have actually come from it.
    My legs are probably sexier than anyone I know
    Andddd, I'm very close to being confident enough to go streaking :wink:

    -I have two jobs, and although I don't make quite enough money, I love what I do
    -I'm financially independent from my family. I mention this a lot, but mostly because it still surprises me. I just turned 20 and I have already become financially independent. That's more than anyone I went to high school with can say
    -I have an awesome fiance
    -I'm getting rats soon (and before anyone says anything about my rats, they think you're gross too.)
    -I have free internet and I can watch all the anime I want
    -I'm getting a free copy of 1984 by George Orwell
    -I found one of my textbooks for college online for $1
    -I'm getting my first car in April which will mean I'm getting another job (one of my jobs is about to end)
    -Last quarter I earned a 4.0 GPA for the first time in my life, let alone in college
    -I have a detachable shower head that makes it easier for me to wash my hair, which is to my waist. It also makes it easier for me to shower with other people.
    -I have the best MFP friends ever.
    -I'm going to go make cheese spaghetti, because I have both cheese and spaghetti.
