My Google slap has made me realize that there are many more important things in my life than Google PageRank.  Seriously, there is.  Yes, 4 to a 0 hurt.  However, I have made a list of all the other things I am grateful for:

• My family.  I have a husband and kids who really don’t care that my blog is a PR0 now.  They care that I am their mom and their wife.  They care that I take part in the day to day things in their life.  They care that I tuck them into bed at night.  They may drive me nuts at times, but I don’t know where I would be without them.
• My extended family.  Both Bill and I have huge extended families.  It is a good feeling to know that if we need help or a hand that there are so many people there to help us.
• Advertisers who still have contacted me to do work.  Thank you for understanding that the PR isn’t everything.
• That I am half done Christmas shopping.  I hate Christmas shopping after Thanksgiving, so I am always happy when I am half done.
• My online friends.  I have a community of people who care about me that I have never met (some I have now thanks to Blogworld and Postiecon!).  I never realized people who you’ve never met could care so much (for example, when I was pregnant with Will, I took a 3 day break from forum checking and blogging and Julie was worried I had Will already!).  I also have online friends that I have met and some I haven’t that I have also worried about like that too.
• My health.  I have not had any major problems.  My kids are in good health too.
• That we have enough money to get through the winter and Christmas.  I know there are a lot of people who worry about this.  We are okay this year, and it is a good feeling.

I know I will be adding onto this list, but this is a good start for what I am thankful for!
