Happy *belated* thanksgiving to anyone reading this! I hope you all had a wonderful holiday! I know I did. Although we didn't do our usual big family dinner with 50 gazillion extended relatives in the twin cities, I loved the quiet dinner that my parents and I had...plus I got to spend time with some really awesome people who I've missed so much.
Anyway, on to my thankfulness!!!
Day 21 of thankfulness, I was thankful for all of my friends who were coming home for the thanksgiving holidays! Hayley, Katie, Nathalie, Gabby, and Dakota--although I only say Hayley, Katie, and Nathalie it was totally awesome. Hayley and I went black friday shopping, just for the fun of it and completely exhausted ourselves...I'll include some pics of the insanity at the end...just keep in mind this was the SMALL Target in our town, from what I've heard the Super Target was WAY worse. (To put it in perspective, I stood in line for nearly an hr and 1/2 to PAY...not to get in). I also got to have coffee with Hayley and our friend Nathalie...the three of us havn't hung out in what seems like years and it was an absolutly awesome morning. Then on Friday my friend Katie and her sister and I went to Joann's where again I spent an hr and 1/2 waiting at the cutting board...but it was worth it...we saved over $275...which was WAY more than we spent (Thank you 25% off total purchase AND student discount!) Plus that evening we went to Katie's house and watched movies till 1am. It was a truly awesome weekend.
Day 22 of thankfulness, I am thankful for the dinner we had, for the food, for the quiet day, for the discussion about turkey reproduction (they rub butts together, don't ask). It was so nice to spend a nice day with my parents and not see my mom stressed about work or my dad stressed about my mom. Plus I got a TON of cuddles with my annie :).
Day 23 of thankfulness I am thankful for the awesome night (mentioned above) that I had with my friends Katie, Elizabeth, and Jess (And katie's sister Becky). All through high school I always felt unattached...now I finally feel like I fit in, even with my HS friends who I wasn't close with in the past. Watching movies and laughing all night was so much fun...especially the text from the pizza delivery boy...oh lordy.
Day 24 of thankfulness...this is truly my lazy post/day. I spent. All. Day. In. Pajamas. It was AMAZING. Need I say more?
Day 25 of thankfulness (this is from my FB status) Day 25, I am thankful for my dog Annie, she is the sweetest pupper ever. As John Grogan said... "A dog has no use for fancy cars, big homes, or designer clothes. A water log stick will do just fine. A dog doesn't care if your rich or poor, clever or dull, smart or dumb. Give him your heart and he'll give you his. How many people can you say that about? How many people can make you feel rare and pu
re and special? How many people can make you feel extraordinary?"
As I sit here with tears in my eyes...I ask the question, how many people are there that greet you every morning with a happy face and a kiss, or treat you like you've been gone for years when you come home from an hour of errands, or that know when something is wrong and they silently come up and lay by you and somehow seem to understand it all...dogs are special, one of a kind...especially mine. I love you Annie Lou ♥

| She 'loves' me haha |
LASTLY (for today...) Day 26 of thankfulness...I am thankful that the car dealership was able to get me in on short notice to get my car an oil change and a 35,000 mile check-up. My 'oil life' or whatever was only at 15% and after the 'accident' I had over the summer...I am so very thankful to have such an awesome place to go for my car.
NOW...lets see if I can actually blog tomorrow too :P...
