Give Thanks




Given the day, I thought I would take a moment to list some of the things that I am grateful for.

  • My family- even though they are far away, I love and miss them
  • Getting off work early on a Wednesday and not working for the rest of the week
  • Good friends that get me through the day
  • A regular view of the Washinton Memorial as I drive around my house
  • Finding new music that I love
  • Cabin memories, past and future
  • Looking forward to fun vacations
  • Sunday game nights
  • Finding old friends and new friends on facebook
  • Talking to my mom on the way home from work
  • I'm going to be an auntie next year
  • Decorating for Christmas the day after Thanksgiving
  • Enjoying the red rocks of southern Utah with my camping buddy
  • Getting something in the mail that isn't a bill
  • Going to concerts
  • Going shopping with my dad on Christmas Eve
  • The first snow of the year
  • Having a big table that can host Thanksgiving dinner
  • Liking the people that I work with
  • Having friends all over the world and the hope that someday I'll be able to visit them
  • Knowing that my buddy Bradley lives in a good home
  • The first time in the ski season where I really remember how to ski
  • Occasional hibernation
  • Comfy sweats
  • Watching movies
  • Getting something great on sale
  • Morning ski runs at Lake Powell

I liked your list. Just one question, how do you have "future memories"? (cabin) Your mom was touched by your list.

Well, I'm pretty sure I'm going to have a great time at the cabin in the future, and those will turn into memories once they've passed.
Or, I can actually see into the future. Whichever you prefer.
