My Simple Things



The Simple Things

This was one of those weeks,where finding the little things, that made me happy is a little difficult. 
Life is changing, for many in my inner circle, my roommate is getting married and moving away. 
My parents are moving away.. 
Loosing my free internet..(I know how selfish of me) 
I just left another job...
Things that aren't really super stressful (well besides the wedding) but very emotion ridden.
I don't want to even TRY To be happy.. but I can still be thankful..

I appreciate...

♥ Having at least one window air conditioner
♥ Being able to have had 1 year with my roommate 
♥ Knowing that she has a great guy to take care of her
♥ Having my own car (Still can't believe its all mine!) 
♥ Earning an extra $100 this week...
♥ Sunshine 
♥ Caffeine 
♥ Doughnuts  

What do you appreciate? Be sure to link up with Jessyln Amber!

I am Blessed.

I'm generally a thankful person. 
Its something I know I'm supposed to be.
Thankful for my family, friends, heat, clothing, warmth....
But today it hit me. 
I don't know if it was the homeless man standing in 30 degree weather with just a sign...
Or maybe it was walking from my warm car, in my warm clothes, to my equally warm house....
Or perhaps it was the hauling of bag, after bag full of food into my house.. 
But as I looked around I couldn't help but think.....
I am blessed. 
There are so many places or situations I could be in at this moment, but I have been given the presence of mind to make good decisions, to look at others mistakes and learn from them... to lead a productive life....
Reguardless of how this year turns out, I have what I need.
And for that I am deeply thankful.

Happy Thanksgiving

 Being Thankful is something I am everyday; for Life, for having a reasonable amount of health and strength, for having a healthy happy family that cares (in their own quirky way) for me. For my menagerie of dogs. For having not one but two jobs in this tough economy. For having a place of my own. For my friends; for the different opportunity that have come my way lately.........wow.

I have so much to be thankful for how can I be thankful on just one day?

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone!
