I was tagged by my sister-in-law Jen.  I think this is a great tag because I’m supposed to list ten things I’m grateful for.

1. I’m grateful to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints. I don’t know where I’d be without my faith in and knowledge of my Savior Jesus Christ.  I know I can always count on Him to be there when I need Him the most.
2. I’m grateful for Corey. Our marriage has been rougher than most, but totally worth it.  I’m so glad I get to be with him for eternity.
3. I’m grateful for my kitties. They bring so much joy and happiness into my life.  I love their curiosity and watching them play and have fun.  I also love their instinctual nature about knowing when I’m having a bad day and trying to make me feel better by either loving me or spending time with me.
4. I’m grateful for my family. Even though it’s been rough the last few years, I still love them.  I’m also very grateful for my nieces and nephews.  I love that they’re my “friends” and that I can have so much fun with them.
5. I’m grateful for my friends. Without my friends, I’d be a nobody.  I love having fun with them.  I love sharing their sorrows.  I love just being a part of their lives.
6. I’m grateful for my job. It’s more often that I hate my job than like it.  However, I’m grateful I have a job, especially during this recession.
7. I’m grateful for books. It’s funny because I’d never have listed books as something I was grateful for two years ago.  It’s amazing to me how one changes as they grow or experience new things.
8. I’m grateful for technology. I love my Macbook because I can do some much with it.  I love my iPod because I can have all my music with me all the time.  (When I was younger, I’d always lug all my CDs with me on vacation.  It’d drive my parents nuts.)  I love the Internet because of the knowledge I have at my fingertips and, let’s be honest, the entertainment value.  I love all the advances we’ve made in medicine.
9. I’m grateful for the things I have. Even though I don’t feel like I have very much, I know I have a lot more than a lot of people.
10. I’m grateful for music. I love listening to music.  Music speaks to my soul.  It can lift my spirit or bring it down, depending on what I’m listening to.  Without music, I wouldn’t be here today.

I have so much to be grateful for, but now it’s time for someone else to share.  I tag Amber, Ali, Ashley, Christie, Debbie, Kayla, Leah Marie, Meagan, Megan, and Rachel.
