I should be grateful for the groceries in the cupboard but instead...I'm mad at myself for spending twice as much as everyone else who clips coupons.
I should be grateful for steady jobs but instead...I'm tired of having to work more often than not.
I should be grateful for motherhood but instead...I'm hating always being the bad guy.
I should be grateful for sleep but instead...I feel guilty for doing too much of it.
'tis the season to be grateful but instead...I'm not.
I think it's time for an attitude adjustment...thanks for listening...I feel better already :)

Oh honey...you're looking at it all wrong. You are grateful that you didn't waste time clipping coupons and running to three different stores and your jobs that get you out of being the bad guy at home and for your warm, welcoming bed and well...I haven't thought of any thing for the laundry yet but I'm not giving up.
Hey that's like 2 posts in a row. You are on a roll! I feel like I haven't seen you forever, I miss you :(
I'm just grateful that someone else is REAL and honest! LOL! Hang in there - it seems to be in the air! 'Tis the season I guess! Besides, I have a really hard time imagining you as "the bad guy!" You are always SO sweet!
Thanks for the perspective! I think I need an attitude check, too!
Moderation in ALL things...I think that's what they say. So, with that in mind, we NEED to have those days when we take time off from being grateful and give our minds the chance to feel sorry for ourselves...for just a little bit, at least. I'm sure you'll be back to the grateful part in no time! Chin up little camper!
Oh, you're normal. Right? You're a great person. I'm glad you're honest.
Words right out of my mouth!!
At least I'm not the only one. For the record, though, I'm with Rochelle...there's a positive to all of it. Even the laundry. We just need to think of it.
