Thankful

Sometimes we get so caught up in what is wrong or how people are wronging us in our lives that we forget what we have to be thankful for…and my friends we sure do have a lot of right things going on we should be thankful for.

I am thankful for my friends and family for loving me as nutty as I am. I really feel blessed.

I am blessed and thankful to have a husband who takes me for who I am. Who can put up with my childish jokes my breakdowns and my wild dreams. My husband who always supports me and encourages me to go for them….even when I am not sure of myself he is always sure of me.

I am thankful to have a nutty daughter. One who can laugh with me and joke with me and whisper secrets in my ears. I mother couldn’t ask for a better daughter and I know how lucky I am to have her….how thankful I am.

I have a lovely home (sure I may be trying to sell it but what I mean about home isn’t the address we reside in)

I have plenty of food to eat and clothes to wear and I never go without.

Really….when I think of it I have nothing but thanks for the life I have.

What about you? Have you thought about what you are thankful for?

What Happened?

Was doing so well on keeping my blog fairly updated. What happened? Think I lost my steam…let’s keep this rolling.

Exciting news. Matt and I have finally decided on which house we are going to purchase (with the luck of our house selling) Surprisingly enough we are going to go with “smelly” house. This house has a great location, size, bathrooms. BUT…it smells and has not been taken care of. It is only a three year old house (previous owners being there for 1 year) The carpets and ruined with holes and stains…pretty sure they have never cleaned in the year they have lived there.

After exhausting all of the market here and hoping for something that didn’t require as much work but had as much space we came up empty. So after careful deliberation my husband and I have decided on smelly house. With some proper cleaning, new floors and new paint the house will be great!

So come on! Someone buy my house!

Please hehe

November 10th

November 10th is not just any old day. November 10th is important in many ways. Not only is it the day before Remembrance Day, but it is also my Father’s birthday.

November 10th 2002 is the day I told my father I was pregnant with Evelynn. He always joked that was his best birthday present. I am sure I sent him for quite a shock…but in the end it all worked out.

November 10th 2008 was his last birthday with us. I think it was the best one I can remember. I went to visit him the weekend after his birthday. I wanted to spend his birthday with him last year. We had sooo much fun with him that weekend. It was a great time and such a good memory to have as one of my last ones weekends with him.

I am sure this comes as no surprise when I say…I miss you Dad. I would love to be spending this birthday with you. You would be 55 today. Too young to not be here. Too young.
