#43: Giving thanks

Here is my list of things I am thankful for this year:
1. My loving family who continue to let me live at home rent free and put up with all of my hobbies. I probably exist in 1/2 of this house while the other 3 of my family members share the other 1/2.
2. Knowing that there are people who understand me and that I can reach out to when I am faced with a moral dilemma.
3. Former professors who still offer guidance and support.
4. People who inspire me to do great things- there is one man at the nursing home where I decorate bulletin boards each month who has inspired me to go skiing and enjoy life while I can I can't wait to honor him this winter.
5. A new friend that I chat with daily.
6. Old friends that I catch up with through the wonders and magic of Facebook.
7. Best friends who will always be there for me.
8. A second job that I love going to because of the fun people who appreciate me and the amazing product that I'm selling and actually love.
9. Being able to spread joy and happiness through things like cupcakes or baby showers or cards in the mail.
10. Knowing that my Poppa is in a safe and loving place now (as opposed to last year at this time when he was so sick) where he is able to watch over us and keep us safe and say good morning with beautiful sunrises.

What are you thankful for this year?
