I'm thankful for the fact that I was able to fill up an entire month worth of things I'm thankful for.

Day 243- Traditions

Growing up my family did not have too many traditions when it came to the holidays. One that we do have is the day after Thanksgiving my mom and I decorate the house for Christmas. Unfortunately the last 9 years I have been working in retail, so I have had to work. Instead I told my mom her and my aunt could decorate. This year, however, I am not working in retail and only had to go to work for a few hours so I got to take part in the tradition. My mom and I didn't get everything done today, but we can and will finish tomorrow.

Day 241- Let The Holiday Begin

Today it was very quiet at work so I actually left right on time. I was expecting there to be a lot  of traffic on the way home, but there wasn't. It is a nice way to start the holiday. It's turning out better than I initially thought.

Now, off to get ready for friendsgiving!

Day 241- I'm Thankful For….

I'm thankful for reasons to dress up. I don't get to do it too often so I love to take advantage of it when I can.

Day 240- Friendsgiving

Tomorrow a few friends and I are going to gather for "friendsgiving." This is basically Thanksgiving the day before, but with friends since we will all be with our families the actual day. It's a great way to spend the holiday with our extended loved ones because the truth is for most of us, our friends are family too.

I'm thankful for all the amazing people I get to call my friends.

Day 239- Straight To It

I don't have too much I want to write about tonight so I'm just going to go straight to the end.


Day 239- I'm Thankful For….

I'm thankful for my parents. Their love and support through this entire process has been unbelievable. I don't know where I would be without them. When I think about them I think about a quote I once read. It goes, "You were born because one day you will be important to someone." My parents were definitely born for me because they are the most important people to me. I couldn't image having anyone else as parents but them.

Day 238- Quiet Afternoon

Spent a quiet afternoon working on my Thanksgiving day crafts with my mom. The best part, we finished! So now all that is left is the cooking, the setting of the table, and enjoying the day.

I'm thankful for quality time with my mom.
