I try to be thankful everyday for all of my blessings, but as I am like everyone else, sometimes you are just too overrun with life to remember these small things. This is the best time of year to take a moment and be thankful for all that we have, no matter how great or small. Don't forget, not all blessings can be seen, some just come from above when we need them most.
I'm thankful for: (in no particular order)
1. My husband - Without him, most of the last 20 years would have happened. I have accomplished so much because of him. I'm sure I test his patience at times, but he is understanding, caring, and willing to deal me on my worst days.
2. My friends at work - It's only me on some days and I get lonely. You don't realize how much more bearable your job becomes until your coworkers aren't there!!
3. Layla - My little furry princess. I am such a dog person now that she has come into my life. Scott is blessed to be able to take her to work with him everyday so she is spoiled rotten!
4. Neeko - My prince. Ok, really he's my furry little man. He listens as well as any man, is stubborn, and has a chewing problem. This boy has taught me patience, and more patience. The love he shows me though makes me forget all of his little oops. He's a mama's boy as Scott says.
5. My inlaws - They treat me very well, and have accepted me into their family as if I was their daughter. They make sure I'm taken care of when Scott is out of town.
6. My job - I may complain about it, but it pays for a lot things that aren't really necessary to survive.
7. My car - Some mornings, like when it's below zero, she's a little grouchy, but she always gets me from point A to point B.
8. My freedom - Thank you to our military for keeping it that way
9. Google - If you only knew how many times in one day I say "lemme google that". Google makes me sound more intelligent when I find out the answer lol.
10. My daydreams - Nice way to escape the day and motivate me into doing more.
11. My creativity - Sometimes it gets me in trouble, but I'm thankful that I have the ability to think outside the box
12. My laziness - Gets me in trouble most of the time, but I do my best work at the last minute.
13. Blogs - They inspire me. I have learned so much from all the blogs that I subscribe to.
14. Social Media - I'm able to keep of with my friends when I'm not able to see or talk to them as much as I'd like.
15. My mistakes - That I have made in the past, hopefully they have taught me to not repeat them.
16. Frozen food - My go to when I've had a long day and don't wanna cook.
17. Panera - It's my meeting place once a month with one of my bestest girlfriends. Keeps me sane.
18. Diet Coke - I have a small addiction to the stuff. Makes everything taste better!!
19. Chocolate - Don't think I have to explain this one.
20. My phone & camera - Both have all of my memories. There will come a time where I won't be able to remember much, and I'll always have the pictures to look through.
21. My lifelong friends - The ones from high school. They keep me grounded.
22. Green lights - Some mornings we just all need a break, and making green lights can make a day start off right.
23. My house - Another one of Scott's blessings to me. I have a roof over my head and a place to be creative.
24. Days off - Need I say more?
25. The lady at the bank who always gives my dogs bones - It makes them feel special.
26. My computer - To which I have access to the wonder-filled internet.
27. Music - Certain songs bring back memories, while others are meant to relax, excite, etc. A lot of mine are memories.
28. Memories - Sometimes it's so nice just to relive them.
29. Modern conveniences - Water, electric, etc. They keep me warm, clean, and the lights on. I don't like the dark.
30. The fact that I get out of bed everyday - Some do not, and it's not by their choice. There's days I grumble, but I'm blessed to have my mobility.
I hope you all have a blessed Thanksgiving and are able to spend the holidays with those you love.

30 Days of Thanks - Day 28
You'll love this one...today I'm thankful for blonde hair dye. I know, I just dyed it for Halloween, but I've decided I don't want to be a brunette anymore, so I'm trying to go back to somewhat my original color. I was starting to look funny with lighter roots than my hair color lol. Now my hair has that funny smell, but I'm happy.

If you are an Ohio State fan, today is a good day. We pounced all over Michigan...woohoo!!!!!!!! If you have never seen where the band comes out in the field and does the script, it's a must watch. I could never keep it straight, these are some very talented band members.

Yeah for Black Friday sales!! Today I Christmas shopped for myself *shame on me I know*. MPT & CILM were having sales, and I also had to stop by Weeds & Wildflowers. I love the "Sweet and Simple" line that they design and I'm desperately trying to catch up on kits. I also stopped off at Peppermint Creative to pick up some really great templates and some embellishments. A day of shopping from my desk...nothing better...well, except for shoe shopping lol.

Today I am very thankful that I'm not cooking a turkey dinner! Or cooking anything for that matter!! I still had to work, but when I got home, we met my inlaws and went to Cracker Barrel for a very tasty turkey dinner. I'm very blessed that they treat me as if I was their own ♥
30 Days of Thanks - Day 24
After being at the shop, I was able to come home and play in PSP til someone heard my wish that I was craving Mexican. Thanks to my mind reader *s*

Someone that I helped at work told me how I made her whole day, sometimes you just need that.
30 Days of Thanks - Day 22
Mother in Law had brought over a Macaroni Grill lasagna dinner that she bought when she went to Sam's Club. One of the stick it in the oven, an hour later, dinner's ready. That in enough is something to be thankful for!!
30 Days of Thanks - Day 20
Today was a great day! Hubby and I were up early to run errands and he insisted that I have to try a hot chocolate from McDonald's. Thanks to him I have a new addiction lol. After he pried the cup from my hands we drove up to Cleveland to go to a motorcycle show. It was the first year for it, but it was pretty neat. Lots of bikes there. Here's a pic of a gas tank that was on one of my favorites.
30 Days of Thanks - Day 19
Since Scott is out of town, his parents took me for Chinese (yes twice in one week lol) so I wouldn't have to eat dinner alone. Awwwww.

Rachael came back to work today...I missed having my partner in crime! Thank you for saving me from a miserably doomed life of being a good girl!

After work we took a long roadtrip because hubby is sometimes forgetful. Nice spending time with him ♥

After work was a peaceful two hour nap. Ahhhh...I'm thankful for my comfy bed and pillow.
30 Days of Thanks - Day 13
I spent my whole day with hubby enjoying an unseasonably warm temperature. He was at the farm, so he called me first thing in the morning to see if I wanted to come down and take some pictures. Who am I to pass that up?! We watched the deer play around for a few hours, then we went to Cabelas, and enjoyed a wonderful late dinner at Cheddar's. It was a three hour drive home, but it was so worth it. Here's a picture of two does sticking their tongues out!!
30 Days of Thanks - Day 12
Ah...PSP time...almost as good as shopping! Today I am very grateful to each and every tag/scrap designer out there. You're all very talented and keep up the beautiful work!! I'm especially thankful for the ones that I CT for. Thanks girls, you're the bestest *hug*
30 Days of Thanks - Day 11
Tonight I get to enjoy one of my guilty pleasures...my DVR'd House & Bones. So that means today I'm thankful for my Scientific Atlanta that delivers me my Dr. House & and the ever so hot Booth!!
30 Days of Thanks - Day 10
Today is my day to spend my day off from computers at the shop with Scott. I'm thankful that we can work together in the same place and still enjoy each others company. I look forward to each and every time *s*.
