Thankful Thursdays

It's November?! Sweet Geezus!!! Where the heck has the last 11 months gone?? Sigh. Since November is the month of Thanksgiving, I thought I would take each Thursday this month to blog about the things I am thankful for. I figured a good ol' 10 reasons list for each week would suffice. It will be a good chance for me to reflect on how truly blessed I am.

1. I am SO thankful that my Condo stuff is FINALLY over! Approximately a year ago this time, I had made the decision to let my Condo go. What a year it has been. Such an exhausting process, but I am SO thankful it is over with. I am stronger, wiser, and better off now then I was back then.

2. I am thankful for the ability to provide and take care of myself. Even though my hearts desire is to fall in love, be married, and have a family... there is something to be said for the fact that I can and I am able to take full care of myself and my needs. Pretty proud of myself! Go me!


3. I am thankful for my health and well being. For the most part, I am healthy. I need to lose a few (a lot) of pounds but... (knock on wood)... I have my health and will commit myself to being healthier.

4. I am thankful for this BEAUTIFUL fall we have had thus far. Anyone who knows me, knows that I dread the winter. The fact that we have made it to November with NO SNOW, makes me SOOOOO happy. I am also in love with the beautiful fall colors that I am surrounded by. Somedays, they literally distract me as I drive by them. So pretty.

5. I am thankful for my Honey P and his sweet little O. I am so happy that our paths crossed! They both mean so much to me and I am excited to see where things will lead.

6. I am thankful for my friends. They love and accept me as I am. The good, the bad and the ugly. They are there for me no matter what. And the fact they CHOOSE me to be their friend means the world.

7. I am thankful for my family. Unlike friends, God CHOSE me for them. Hahaha. We put the fun in dysfunctional sometimes, but I love them, unconditionally, none the less.

8. I am thankful for my job. It's been a struggle the last few months. Definitely going through some growing pains, but I am thankful I have a job as so many people out there do not.

9. I am thankful for love, laughter and everything in between. I've learned so much about myself in the last 5 years and truly feel I have grown into myself. I'm discovering who I am and starting to realize that I am pretty great, just the way I am. It's a beautiful feeling. One I've been longing to feel for quite some time.

10. I am thankful for new beginnings. Sometimes we all just need to reboot, and start over. That is what this year has been to me. I'm hopeful for what is to come.
