Thankful

In regards of my previous post, I suppose I will honor Thanksgiving before I say any more about Christmas.  Now that I have decided that, I will now state, every time I blog, what I am thankful for.  I said every time I blog because I don't blog everyday.  If I forced myself to blog every day just so I could state what I was thankful for every day, ya'll would be bored.  There's a reason why I don't blog every day and I believe we've gone over this.

So starting today, I will start stating what I am thankful for until the end of November.  

Also, in regards to my previous post, I am convinced that Mother Nature has a computer and is following my blog.  Why? Because today actually felt like NOVEMBER!!!!

You wanna bet there was a smile on this girl's face when she stepped outside this morning??  Because there most definitely was!  Then it went away....the smile....because it was 7:15 when I stepped outside.     :(

I started my observation hours today.  Only 12 more to go!!!  I had to be there at 8, but since traffic is horrendous, I had to leave the house at 7:15 and I was still 5 minutes late.  Good thing no one noticed/said anything.  Whew!  Guess I will be leaving earlier tomorrow.  Yup, up and at 'em again tomorrow, and Monday, and Wednesday!  We were recommended to do 2 days of each 8 hour shifts, but I  have to be at work by 1, so 4 hour mornings it is!  I'm such a procrastinator!  It is a problem and I need to do something about it.  

Before I say what I am thankful for today, I want to apologize for being so bad about simply just boring you with my words and not showing you any exciting pictures!  I'll try to get better about that.

Day #1 of being thankful:  I am thankful today for food.  

Why food you ask?  Not because it's amazing and I absolutely love all kinds, but because I saw someone digging through the trash can today, not just one, but multiple trash cans looking for food.  So today I am thankful that I have fresh, healthy, sometimes not so healthy, yummy, warm, food!  

This thankful thought might come off as rude or some other kind of adjective, but I don't mean it like that.  I thought it was sad that I had to see what I saw, so I am thankful that I do not have to go through the day wondering if I will eat or have to dig through trash to find something.

& this is life as I know it...
