Just in time for Thanksgiving, I'm here with a list of some of the things for which I am thankful. My list is totally random and is subject to change at any moment.
Wanna hear it? Here it goes:
~ Family ... that one goes without saying.
~ My health ... so dear these days, now that I'm a Grandma. And considering the sounds of the coughing from downstairs (Jimmy has pneumonia and an almost-eardrum-rupturing ear infection), I am noting each hour that I feel great.
~ Gasoline that costs $1.69 a gallon at Costco.
~ Precious Squish, who means more to me with each passing day.
~ Wine. Most especially Pinot Grigio. Or whatever's in the box in the refrigerator.
~ Our home. For all my complaining and wanting it all to be new and pretty, I'm aware that I am safe and warm and dry every night of my life. Quite comfortable, even! (But really ... the stove and the kitchen floor have got to go.)
~ The beach. Haven't laid eyes on one since late July, but I know they're still there, waiting for me.
~ My crazy plan to "take a little class at Greenville Tech" is finally coming to an end tonight!
~ Chocolate.
~ Friendly friends, even though it's been too long since I've seen a single one of those beetches.
~ A new (upscale! LahDeDah) Wal-mart, almost next door. Yay, traffic!
~ A space heater that blasts the Heat of Hell right here next to my feet as I waste time on the Internet every day.
~ Speaking of the Internet, thank you, Al Gore. I'll be doing a lot of my Christmas shopping right here with my space heater.
~ Music. What would life be without a soundtrack? (And really, you haven't heard good music until you've heard the Squishy one sing "up above the world so high".)
~ I'm REALLY thankful that I can finally replace my aggravating "Chocolate" cell phone in February.
~ My bed. Seriously, I love it. And I'm thankful for the 600-thread count 100% cotton sheets, and the down comforter, too.
~ Did I mention my family? My kids, my husband, my granddaughter, my sisters, my mother, my in-laws, my nieces, and my nephews ... they are everything to me.

Ok...better late than never. I'm thankful for my children that I got to spend wonderful time with over Thanksgiving. I'm thankful for my sisters and my mother being so close to me in my life. I'm thankful for my neices (even the itty bitty new ones) and nephews that are such an important part of my heart. I'm thankful for the roof over my head (even though it's pouring rain and dripping into my den right now). I'm thankful for being able to get up each day and still have a job (or two) to go to. And most of all I'm thankful for being able to get up each day! Oh and yes, I'm thankful for chocolate :)
Love you sister.....Kay
