i am thankful...

it is thanksgiving in the US. I dont really celebrat
e in the traditional sense of getting together with family. i don't think i have gone to my parents' house for the last four or years. I've spent it with good friends instead

which inspires me to make a list of what i am thankful for:

• my friends. they are an amazing group of people and i don't think I would be here if it was not for them
• my husband. he is also my friend but i figured he deserves his own mention. sometimes our odd relationship annoys me but i can't imagine things any other way
• my job. i make enough money and have enough flexibility that I can travel and do what I want.
• my family. we get along much better when i only see them a few times a year

 

my family. we get along much better when i only see them a few times a year

Isn't that the truth! I see my nuclear family more often than that, but my extended family.... I'd flip out constantly if I had to see most of them more often than xmas, easter and weddings/funerals.
