Thankful Thursday

Thursday, February 19, 2015

  • I'm thankful that I was able to experience Paris.
  • I'm thankful that I got to make my baked Mac & Cheese for Laurel and McKell last night.
  • I'm thankful for being able to teach the coolest first graders around.
  • I'm thankful that friend breakups may not be hard as I once thought.
  • I'm thankful that music from 1999 to 2001 exist and I can have a dance party in my car.
  • I'm thankful for the possibility of snow this week.
  • I'm thankful for all the friends I've made.
Just a few things in my life and recently that I'm thankful for. I really have a good life. While I'm not spoiled, I have essentials to get by with. I have the best people in my life and the not best people out of my life. This is all for me. I've made sure that 2015 is going to be a "me" year where I put my needs and happiness first, and I'm thankful for that alone. I'm constantly checking myself to make sure I'm where I need to be and who needs to be in my life, and if I'm not happy with it, I make changes and move on.

Picture not mine.

















Make a small list of things you're thankful for! Really think about it, think about things you have that you may have overlooked. I wrote out a huge list of things to be thankful for and narrowed it down to just a few things that I ended up putting on the blog. Of course, I left out having a boyfriend/being in love, having a (for the most part) loving family, having a roof over my head, electricity, etc, because if you know me, you'll know that not even a year ago, I was homeless. And I would never wish that on anyone. With being homeless came a learning experience. I learned that I was always taking advantage of having a roof over my head and it sucked when I didn't have that. It sucked when I didn't have running water. It sucked when I didn't have electricity for warmth. I'm now thankful for all of that (and thankful for the jobs I work to get money to pay for it all).

What are you thankful for?
