{Be my Valentine}

Well, I don't have a Valentine exactly this year, but, I saw this quote and loved it! I think Valentine's Day is a little dramatic and forced but it is a sweet day to think about those you love. How awful is it that it fell on a Monday this year? Anyway, just another day to me this year, maybe next year I will be the one with the nauseating bouquet of flowers at my desk?!

Happy Valentine's Day!

Happy Thanksgiving!

{Happy Turkey Day!}

A few things I am thankful for today and everyday...

1. My family, though small, they have big hearts and I do not know what I would do without them (especially this year!)

2. My house, not quite moved in yet, but very excited for all of the storage space and backyard.

3. My job, very stressful, and I know I complain a lot, but it is great and I know that there are many out there with no jobs.

4. My health, knock on wood, I feel healthy, even through all of the stress.

5. My friends, the ones who know me and I can actually

count on.

6. My babies, meaning my dogs. They mean so much to me and have been my buds through some tough times.

And some not so important things, but none the less, still thankful for...

7. Target, you know what I mean. I could live there.

8. Fall weather, we are having such warm weather lately, today is suppose to be in the 30s, finally!

9. Thanksgiving leftovers, nothing beats a turkey sandwich.

10. Lazy days, like today. Sleep in, start cooking, watch the Macy's Thanksgiving Day parade, hang with friends & family, Eat, take a nap. Can't beat a day like that.

A Change will do me good

I just got home from a wonderful trip to California and Las Vegas. It was so great to get away from everything crazy in my life. I will post more on that later. When I got home all of the trees looked like they were on fire. I was so happy that I didn't miss them turning, it's one of my favorite things. The leaves changing and falling made me think and reflect on a lot of things.

Its time to let go of all things negative. My life is wonderful and I am blessed. I have gotten far away from poisonous people who had brought me down (way down) in the past. No more of that and no more dwelling on the time wasted on them. It is time for me to focus on me and to live a healthy & happy life, drama free.
