I work up feeling very unThanksgiving-like today because I have to go to work. And I am super grouchy about it. But then I thought about the fact that Gaspar has to work EVEY Thanksgiving and this is only the first time for me. Then I thought of all my friends and family that are in the same boat. And all the times I have been unemployed in my life. And how thankful I am to have a job, especially right now. Wait ... did I say thankful? On Thanksgiving? :)
This has been a very difficult but also exciting year. Some of the excitement I could have done without but right now, today, life is good. So before I leave for work here is a short list of what I am thankful for. It's not short because of a lack of things to be thankful for. It's short because I am procrastinating and need to get my butt in gear to get to work!
My husband Gaspar and our family (and cats :) )
- I am truly blessed to every way. I have a loving, caring, supportive and hilarious husband who spoils me every day. I have parents who have always been there for me and are the epitome of role models. I have an extended family that I wish i could gather in to a big group hug - grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, who I love and miss. I have a whole bunch of inlaws who I love dearly and hope to see when I get home today. :)
All my wonderful=2 0friends, new and old
- I have the greatest friends in the whole world. And this year I have been able to make a bunch of new friends and reconnect with many old ones.
Health
- some close to me were very sick this year and today they are either no longer sick, or feeling better than they have in a long time.
My job
- while hectic and stressful it has also been rewarding and I'm glad I have a paycheck
And this may seem like a weird one but I am thankful for having fun! I have had so many crazy adventures, especially this year. Whether it was going to Vegas, hanging out with my friends every week, Broadway shows, and of course my New Kids insanity. I can hardly believe my life!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
