Happy Turkey Day

Things I am Thankful For

My two beautiful children, who are healthy and amazing.
Excedrin Tension Headache...because healthy children are loud and tension-causing.
Internet, for allowing recluses like me a window to the world where we can blog, play Neopets, and web md our symptoms that might just be dengue fever.
Wine.
Champagne.
A wonderful husband who is also my best friend. No one else can make me so mad and so happy. Not to mention he buys me Internet and makes pretty babies.
Bravo, Fox(ch. 15, NOT the news network...that's an entirely different list), Best week Ever and The Soup
My siblings. My partners in crime who have my back, but will throw me under the bus in a heartbeat if mom gives them 'the eye'. No one else makes me laugh so much, or makes me so brave.
Tissues with vick's vapo rub.
Anything Pepperidge Farm has ever made.
Gardening.
Wine.
ohhhh bud light with lime...that's yummy too.
Johnny Depp.
Chocolate.
Wine.
Music, and the ability express myself through guitar and lyrics.
OBAMA '08
My mom, because no matter what, she is only a phone call away when I am in tears and ready to run away and join the circus. And she usually brings snacks. Or wine.
My stinky Lila kitty.
Diet Dr. Pepper.
Calvin and Hobbes.
My whole family, near or far, old or new. I am 26 and still acquiring new brothers and sisters and that's pretty neat. :)
My vacuum cleaner.
Mascara. Never leave home without it.
My camera because I love being able to freeze time for a second, so I can go back and remember it, and share that with people.
Turkeys, for being so damn yummy. Sorry, I hate thinking about eating an animal...but really...you're just asking for it, being so damn tasty.
Laughter....I can never get enough of laughter. It is the best feeling in the whole world to laugh.

And of course I am so thankful, for having a strong healthy body, a healthy mind, healthy hands to play my guitar, healthy legs to dance, and a warm, healthy heart to laugh and love. Thank you God, for every blessing in my life, great and small. Though I guess there really are no small blessings. Everything we are, everything around us, every breath we take is a blessing, a miracle and a gift.
Happy Thanksgiving everyone.
Now, where's the wine?
