Last Day!

It's the last day of November so I suppose this should be my last "Thankful in November" post but I really like posting things that I am thankful for because it's pretty easy.  I really do have so much to be thankful for and I think I could fill up every month of the year. So to tide me over for a little bit, here is an extended (not exhaustive) list of things I am thankful for.

Today I am thankful for:

• 11am Classes that allow me to sleep until 9
• My impulse Christmas present purchase thanks to Pinterest
• A new season of Top Chef with a chef from Louisville to root for
• 2 weeks and 1 day until Christmas break
• The Aphasia clinic. I am also thankful that it was not an option to skip the aphasia clinic. I dreaded it sooo badly and now I have to say that it was a great experience and I'm a little sad that it is over.
• Fuzzy blankets
• Friends, Family, Fun times
• Weekend get-aways to Louisville
• Starbuck's Apple Chai Infusion, because I'm not a coffee drinker and it is still warm and delicious.  Although, I am super tempted by the skinny peppermint mocha.
• Not waiting until my wedding day for my first kiss (don't know what I'm referring to? Watch HERE)
• Dogs (my dog especially), love me some dogs.  Saw two boxers sitting in the front seats of a Mini Van yesterday. One was in the drivers seat looking straight ahead, the other was in he passenger seat looking out the window.  Wanted to take a picture but I was afraid the owner was near.
• Hair cuts, even if they are a little short
• Snacks, drinks, and dinner at my house at home
• My house at home (the term house at home makes perfect sense to me, don't make fun)
• Not having to go to the laundry mat to do laundry
• Celebration week in December (Beth's Birthday = 21st, Granny's Birthday= 22nd, Christmas Eve Dinner = 24th, & Jesus' Birthday = 25th) 
• SN: I am not thankful of the ambiguity surrounding how to mark possession for a person's name that ends in an "s" or for marking possession for a family of people whose names end in "s" I have looked it up so many different times and read so many different things.  Annoying.
• A minimally dysfunctional family
• A sister who is getting her Ph.D in English but can read this blog without critiquing my grammar/style (but only when I force her to read it!)

The list could go on and on but I have to post this while it is still technically November! 

TWO DAYS

I am thankful that at this time on Tuesday I will be (at least close to) home!  AND this time on Wednesday I will be with my whole family, Saster and Gran included!  I love the Holiday season, so much to look forward to!

I am thankful for Graeter's Peppermint Stick ice cream, so what if it is full of calories and fat, right?

So delicious and for a limited time only!

Today (and every day) I am thankful for my wonderful parents.  Today is their 31st Anniversary (I always forget the exact date, so I'm also thankful for Facebook for keeping on top of things, or at least not behind!).

Cutest couple I know! :)

I am thankful for short weeks of school (three days this week and only 2 days next week!).

I am thankful for my boyfriend who keeps me from being lonely on the weekends, likes to shop just about as much as I do (which I probably shouldn't be thankful for, but I am), and doesn't call me out for being lame when I want to go home at 7 on a Saturday night to lounge on the couch and watch TV. 

I am thankful for Pinterest which has allowed me to tap into my inner Martha Stewart and craft like crazy.  Crafting really makes me happy. Here is what I made this weekend:

 I am also working on something for my room, too!

I am thankful for Thanksgiving. It allows me to see my Saster and my Tinker and my Momma and Dad and I am soooo excited!

Today I am thankful for eyebrows!


Hahahah!!
