A time to remember what I have

• Two beautiful, loving, wonderful, sweet, brilliant children
• A loving and caring boyfriend who doesn't get bent out of shape over piles of junk mail, art supplies, books, CD's, computer software, DVD's, knickknacks, clean laundry
  
• A great dog
• Parents that love me for who I am
• A very cool sister
• A funny brother-in-law
• A little gem of a niece
• Extended family members that manage to lift my spirits when I least expect it
  
• A good job that lets me do what I love to do
  
• Rent that I can afford
• A Webcam that works
• A nifty iPod video
• A car that I like, that fits my budget, that zips nicely along the Interstate and that let's me avoid those bitches in SUV's
• Students who call me their favorite teacher
• Colleagues who say that I'm really smart
• A mustache and soul patch that actually look kind of sexy
• Hair on the top of my head without having to do a comb-over
