Shit To Be Thankful For.
Thank the big “G” for all the Black Friday madness being over, am I right? That crap is just for insane people.. Speaking of being thankful…..
MY PARENTS. I mean, what’s not to be thankful for with these two. Even in their worst moments, they’re still the ABSOLUTE BEST to me. Not just for the way they raised me; not even just for the mere fact that they created my very existence, but I am greatly thankful for the goofy, fun, loving people that they are, and all the things they have taught me, even just by me watching them.
MY FAMILY. These crazy people literally make me feel like I won the jackpot of families. There are many people in my life that I love like family, but nothing beats the real thing, at least not for me. I love you guys, even when I’m a little distant, or I don’t keep in touch, just being around you makes me feel at home, which is something I couldn’t replace even if I wanted to (which I don’t). You’re my forever people.
MY FRIENDS. Speaking of people I love like family, I would be lost without my friends. No I don’t mean ALL of my friends. Though I do love all of the people I consider friends, there are only a select amount of individuals that I “love like family”. The very few I still connect with from high school, the one who adventures with me all day and night, the group of my dad’s friends that I consider family, and even the most recent group who welcomed me into their circle when I first moved. My life would be pathetic, and boring without you, so thanks for making it so much better!
PECAN PIE. I mean, duh. (My Aunt’s is still the best).
MY APARTMENT. Because it’s really hard to find a place in this town, and our place is super cute, and cozy. Also, I have the best roommates, and I can sit on the kitchen counter if I want too! What more could a girl ask for? (Just kidding, no one ever yelled at me for doing that before.) Seriously though, I’m just thankful to be able to put a roof over my own head. …and decorating.
MY JOB. Speaking of putting a roof over my head, that’s probably my favorite part about my job, besides the people I work with. It’s not the best, definitely not career material, but at least it’s something, and something is better than nothing. For now.
LIFE. There are times when I have taken it for granted. Times when I haven’t been happy with it. There have even been times when I really just wanted it to end. At the end of the day, I am happy to still be here, because I can’t imagine missing out on anything in my path. Life, shitty as it can be, is way to interesting to miss out on, and so I am incredibly thankful for existing (thanks again, mom and dad!).
