I know a lot of people do these everyday and even though I do have a lot to be thankful for, I figured why not throw it all into a post a week?!
Week 1:
I’m thankful that it’s the holiday season. It’s really the best time of the year. I left work the other day singing Christmas tunes and it was only November 1st, actually I think it may have still been October. I love it.
I’m thankful for Texas weather – oh the fall is an awesome time to be living in Texas. The temperature cools down. There is a slight breeze in the air. Makes you want to take those long walks all day long and just enjoy being outside. I love it, I love it, I love it.
I’m thankful for being able to travel and experience different places and things I get to visit. And I’m thankful that I have this medium to be able to share everyone who reads this blog and hopefully encourage or inspire someone to do the same. Break out of your shell and try something new!
I’m really thankful for my vehicle. She’s a trooper. She is 15 years old in her old lady blue and still kicking it. I love that car. She may have a little rust and wear and tear but she’s been a ways with me. Senior year of college, graduations, driving to the mountain to snowboard, singing in the car when no one is around, moving from Vermont to Texas, my trips! I wish I could make her last forever. Hopefully she’s still got another year in her (at least)!
I’m thankful for weddings. I love them. I mean I really, really LOVE them. They bring together the closest friends and family of a couple (some who you haven’t seen in some time) to celebrate them and the bond that they have created. It’s special to see and be apart of so much love in one room and share a day that people will remember for the rest of their lives. It also gives you a reason to dance! (By the way – Congratulations to the most recent weddings – Bethanye and Matt (11-05) and Amy and Michael (10-02).)
I am thankful for good friends. Friends where if you happen to not speak to them for a while (because you are thousands of miles apart) or just busy that when you do meet up, you pick up right where you left off. No one skipped a step. Friend’s where if you need anything, they will just drop what they’re doing and help out. Friend who you are lucky enough to have known since you were five and still have the privilege of calling them a friend and friend’s that you have known only a short period of time but they feel like sisters and brothers. It’s wicked special and a surely a blessing.
Have a good week!
Thanks for joining in 🙂 I like how you ended it with, “It’s wicked special!”
