Happiness

The last few days have me thinking about my life .... we don't have a lot of money or a fabulous home (rather 1 good home and 1 work-in-progress home).  We don't drive nice vehicles or travel to exotic places or really any places at all other than the grocery store and Goodwill.  We wear used clothes, the hubby and I could each stand to lose 20 pounds, I'm lucky if I manage to get my haircut twice a year and shower every 2 days.  Most days I wear sweats and am up to armpits in kids and questions and projects and homework and bills and a giant mess at our house and days can go by where I don't talk to any other adults except my hubby.  But ..... and it's a big
                              BUT .....
I am happy.  Happy with things just the way they are, counting my blessings and loving myself and the life we have created.
