being thankful

Happy Thanksgiving, gobble gobble!  I have a lot to be thankful for this year, starting first and foremost with my amazing family.  From great weekends at the farm, to a week in Washington DC with the girls, to random texts from my Mom telling me that Leno or Letterman has animals on their show, they're the best.  My parents are strong, smart people.  Even Eric has turned into a pretty cool little brother ;)

I am thankful to have my health.  With several coworkers being injured and having severe health problems, and the fact that I take care of a lot of people who have one foot in the grave and the other on a banana peel, there isn't a day that goes by that I am glad to be relatively healthy.

Ryan.  He makes me totally, completely, incandescently happy.  He puts up with my moodiness and silliness and loves me for who I am.

JOB, my best friend.  Random roommates rarely work so well!  Good job, UWEC dorms!

My feline furball Tuxedo, who is always up for a snuggle or a game of chase the mouse.  He's a great stand-in for an electric blanket too, and I don't have to worry about a fire starting with him :)

I might complain about my job from time to time, but honestly, I am glad to have one.  So many people nowadays are struggling, and I'm lucky to have a job that allows me to do what I love and live comfortably.

Coffee, chocolate, and beer...self-explanatory!!

peace and love and thanks,
