Here are just a few of things I&#8217;m grateful for:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mr. X<\/strong>&#8211;Even when we&#8217;re not getting along, I&#8217;m pretty sure that I&#8217;m one of the luckiest girls in the world. Besides that he&#8217;s still the funniest person I know, and can make everyone laugh with just one word or gesture, I&#8217;m also grateful that he&#8217;s absolutely wonderful to my little mother, so talented and in shape, and does everything for me. I&#8217;d give you <em>that<\/em> list, but I don&#8217;t need even more girls having crushes on him than already do.<\/p>\n<p><strong>My little mo hanging in there<\/strong>&#8211;Even though I&#8217;m crushed about her health problems that began this past July, I&#8217;m so grateful that she&#8217;s gotten a lot better, lives in her house that we&#8217;ve had my whole life, and has her sense of humor intact. That&#8217;s a lot to be thankful for nowadays.<\/p>\n<p><strong>I finally started losing some of my herniated disc-induced weight!<\/strong>&#8211;Even though my back gets worse every time I move a lot. At least I&#8217;m still moving! For someone who was told that I was about to lose the use of my legs a year and a half ago, I&#8217;m doing great. Knock on wood.<\/p>\n<p><strong>That my clubbing days are behind me, yet at the same time, I&#8217;m unbelievably grateful that I can remember every second of them<\/strong>&#8211;Even with all the fights and stress, (from club people, partners of mine, and even the grown-ups who owned\/ran them,) those were the best times of my life, and I&#8217;m always totally grateful for them!!!<\/p>\n<p><strong>That J.R. Martinez and Karina Smirnoff won <em>Dancing With The Stars<\/em> last night!<\/strong>&#8211;I could not be happier about that! I&#8217;m so thankful that at least one thing in life was fair. What a yin and yang life for that guy, eh?<\/p>\n<p><strong>My life in general<\/strong>&#8211;Yes, as many people have told me, I should have had my own sitcom by now. Or at the very least, had guys with cameras following me around. So, my show biz career is at a standstill. But I&#8217;m doing great, compared to most of the world, and I acknowledge that fact every day. I feel that we all have to be grateful for what we <em>have<\/em>, and not concentrate on what we <em>don&#8217;t<\/em> have. Life&#8217;s way too short.<\/p>\n<p><strong>And, most of all, <em>all of you<\/em><\/strong>&#8211;Without you guys, this E-zine is just a tree that falls in the forest.
