Thankfulness - Part 2

Raise your hand if you are a Goober!! Yep, that's me raising my hand (in case you can't see it).

After I typed that whole post yesterday about Thankfulness and started thinking of some of the things I am most thankful for, I got a serious case of deja vu. As in, flash back to my very first post.

"Something new with the ole blog?!" I think not!!

To make matters worse, when I got on Facebook last night, everyone was starting their 30 Days posts!! I typically try to avoid all of the Facebook trends (ie - the color of your bra, where you leave your purse, brother/sister/mother/father/friend week, post this to save all the puppies in the world, etc). I hate when they clog my news feed, and most of them are absolutely ridiculous!!

Those two things gave me conflicting feelings about doing this Thankfulness List. I really debated abandoning the whole idea all together, but then I took another look at it.
Who cares if everyone else is doing it?! Who cares if I have already done a list in the past?!
Thankfulness really should be something that we all practice on a daily basis, regardless of the time of year. I would even venture to say that not being thankful is what has gotten our society in the shape it is in now. Thankfulness seems to be a rarity in every day life.

All that being said...let me continue on with my list...

2. I am so thankful for the family that God has blessed me with. I know this is a repeat from my other post, but I don't care! I love them - all of them!! I truly have been blessed with the best mom and dad, sisters, and brother that a girl could ask for!! Throw in my grandparents, aunts, uncles and cousins and you have got one huge, crazy family that I absolutely adore!! Seriously...if you want to have some fun, just come join any of our family gatherings. You are sure to have a good time - even if it is just sitting back and laughing at all of us.

*Speaking of my family, I just thought of a story that I need to share some time...it involves glitter, a mouse, a gun and a bedroom slipper. See, I told you - crazy - but HILARIOUS!! You'll have to hang on for that story another day ...
