1. My children-they inspire me to be a better person because of the people they have grown up to be.
2. My fur babies. They give me reason to get out of bed and make me smile.
3. My job. I really love that I make a difference for others, even when I feel like I am falling apart.
4. The people who I considered acquaintances that have proven to be good friends throughout this process. I am more loved than I ever knew.
5. Meetup group that is getting me out of the house without me feeling like I am imposing on my friends. (most of them are couples and I feel like a 3rd wheel with them.)

1. My sons who I love dearly.
2. My cats who are more loving giving to me than my WS (of course their presents are usually dead and missing a head).
3. My friends who have stood by me despite my whining and never once said, "Get over it".
4. I am forever thankful for growing up in a stable family with loving parents and siblings.
5. I reluctantly have to say I am thankful WS has financially supported his sons. I have to give credit where credit is due. He's a jerk but he's not a 100% dick.
