Hey I can't figure out how to convert the below circuit into its thevenin equivalent. I am used to having two points to work with, but in this circuit there is only one and a ground.

for some reason the image doesn't show up on my screen; if that's the case for you, the link is below

Find the Thevenin equivalent between the free end of R3 and the ground.

im still confused about the +5 V end, can you actually show me?
 
There is a voltage source connected there. I made a new drawing, find the Thevenin equivalent between A and B.
