The master thankful list





This time of year always fills me with gratitude, which I suppose is good because no one likes an ungrateful bitch...am I right?  Here are some things I've been feeling particularly thankful for lately (in no particular order).  In case you were wondering of course...


1.  My dogs.  Although not right at this moment because they are wrestling while Bryan is trying to sleep.  Then he knocks on the wall indicating to shut it...they think someone is at the door and freak.  It makes for a very unproductive evening.  But when they are quiet and cuddly and they warm my feet.

2.  A roof over my head.  This time of year my heart hurts for those without homes.  Especially when the temperature drops.  Although I love to sit inside and watch the rain or snow fall, I can't help but worry about them out there.  I don't wish for snow anymore.

3.  The New Girl...are you guys watching that show?  I freakin' love it!  I laugh out loud the whole time.

4.  Bryan.  I'm starting to appreciate his quirks in my old age, and man he can build a kick ass fire.  If we were cave men he'd be the most eligible bachelor!  Plus I'm confident if we have a zombie Apocalypse he will the Shane to my Lori.  Only because I think Rick is a little soft.

5.  Family.  They are like my Cheers.  I always feel welcome and that I have a place even if I haven't seen them in awhile.  Plus they crack me up...Did I tell you that my Grandma went to see Breaking Dawn on the opening day?  And that my Mom accused me of seeing it without her.  I should've clarified.  Family of crazy twihards.

6.  Friends.  I have a lot of them and good ones at that.  I'm lucky I get to spend quality time with them and that they let me ramble about my paranoia without committing me.

7.  Good books, good music...and the free time to enjoy them.

8.  My health.  I have it right now, it is a glorious thing.  I bet it would like if I stopped feeding it Nutella.

9.  mmm...that's all for now

10.  Just kidding!  You guys, I'm thankful for you guys too.  Because you're like my family and friends.  I feel like I have an odd little place, and you talk me out of my crazy.  That's priceless, so thank you ;)

What are you thankful for?  Give me some good, I know you love your family and friends...you do right?

Happy Thanksgiving!  (Oh and its a wrap this week,  Remember those good books and the time to enjoy them?...yea it is coming from blogging time)

  9. Ditto on all those! (except exchange Bryan for Jorge, of course)

    Saw Breaking Dawn last night. It was amazing! (except for the weird talking dogs scene)
