Giving Thanks...

Instead of my usual complaints and yapping on about nothing, I've decided to list some things I'm thankful for this year.

1. TOM! I don't know what I would do without him. He's the love of my life, my solid ground, my comfort, my everything. He works so hard and I don't always show him my appreciation. I love you so so much.
2. My awesome family. I can't stress the word awesome enough. We've been through a lot in the past year and I think it's made us closer. I love spending time with them - my mom, all my brother and sisters (and sisters and brothers in law), and especially my nieces and nephews. Can't get enough of them. Thanks so much for everything you have done for me and the support you've shown.
3. My health. Yes, I said it. Despite what I believe in my mind, I AM pretty healthy (physically anyway...mental health is a different story...:) )
4. My home. I am blessed enough to have a mother who is welcoming and loving and enjoys the company of Tom and I. We plan to be here awhile and she seems okay with that. Many people in these times are struggling to live, and we are so lucky to have what we do.
5. My job. I have a great job, work with awesome people, and actually love going to work.
6. My education. Even though I can't stand homework and am totally lazy, I LOVE the fact that I am getting my education and will (one day) be done.
7. I can't leave this out, as trivial as it is. The Twilight books. My nice list just turned nerdy. They got me reading again (ok, I had been reading, but not that much). And, have given me stuff to look forward to. (Did I mention the movie is amazing? I've now seen it twice and have a third time planned.)

I hope everyone has a wonderful Thanksgiving. Have a peaceful day and rest up for shopping tomorrow!!!!
