[giving thanks]

thanksgiving is upon us.
countdown: t-minus 6 days, i believe...
in honor of this beloved holiday, I've started to reflect upon what I am grateful for Thanksgiving 2008.

  • sunshiney days when I ride my bicycle.
  • Taco Tuesdays. Every week.
  • new friends who bring new ideas, new love, and new laughs to my life.
  • old friends who will always remain special as we continue to go through life together.
  • my car...still in excellent working condition.
  • my phone connecting me to the world.
  • dancing. the fact that i've got to do it a lot this year.
  • food: olive garden. mimi's breakfast. pick up stix. acai bowls. panda express. chipotle. niko niko. golden dragon.
  • starbucks. i'm sorry. i'm a drone, judge me all you want.
  • conversations. you never know where they'll lead you.
  • my computer.
  • yogurtland. aka heaven.
  • my family. this one i could go on and on...suffice it to say: i would not have survived the past 5 months without them...or the previous years of my life, for that matter.
  • Jesus in my life.
  • the fact that after thanksgiving comes the most wonderful time of the year.
i am overwhelmed with gratitude.
life is beautiful.
