Thank Goodness!

On this holiday Monday, a day of giving thanks, I thought it might be nice to recap some things that I am thankful for this year.



1. My family. My parents, little brother, grandparents, aunts, uncles, cousins, baby cousins, the whole shebang! They are wonderful, loving, crazy individuals. I don't live in the same province as any of them, and it hurts my soul and breaks my heart a little bit. I miss them like crazy all the time. BUT I get to see one piece of my family unit next weekend :).

2. My friends. Supportive, loving, concerned, good listeners, snappy dancers that they are. They keep me sane, laughing, and dancing. What more could you ask for?

3. My health. Big one here. I am very lucky to have only minor health complaints. (helloooo cold hands and feet!)

4. Having a place to call home. A roof over my head, and food on the table. Many people are not so lucky.

5. The know-how to do many (but definitely all) things that get me by in life. I am a relatively self-sufficient person, and this is a gift. I also know that if I need help, I have a plethora of people to call on (see numbers 1 & 2).

6. And finally, I am thankful to be alive. To be able to wake up each morning and experience everything is amazing, something that I, and many others, can often take for granted.
