Day 2 of my little Project....I almost forgot about it already (not a good sign)...But alas! I am here to tell you what I'm thankful for today...
1. My brother - I have a picture of us on vacation last year below. We dont live in the same state so its hard to see him. But he is a good man. He loves hard and is faithful to his wife and family. He loves God and pulls no punches with me. I love him. I need him in my life. I wish I could see him more.
2. My health - Its been a roller coaster ride at times, physically, but today I am strong and able to work out, run longer than I have, push my body into more strenuous situations than I have before. I love the feeling after a great workout. The rush of feeling your body respond when under duress. It's exhilirating and I love it.
3. & 4. My dogs (hey there are two of them so they count for 2 items-technically) - They are little balls of love and commitment. Although they can a pain sometimes, I'm very thankful for each one of them. Dozer is too smart for his own good and Harley isn't the sharpest tool in shed but seeing them together makes me so happy and brings me so much joy. I can't even bear the thought of losing either one of them.
5. My Great Grandma Ruth - I got a special treat over Christmas this year. My Great grandma had been sick with the flu so she couldn't join us for Christmas Dinner. I waited a few days and surprised her at her nursing home. She wasnt in her room so I started wandering around and found her in "activity hour" Apparently she is the social butterfly of the home and attends all activity hours, game nights, and excursions that this home does... doesn't sound like me at all.... Anyways, she is an amazing woman. So supportive and proud of me. I can just feel her love radiating out of her when I'm with her. She always has my back and listens to me tell her about my love life (or lack there of) and then always a little nugget of advice (which is so simple and profound at the same time). She is the kind of woman I want to be. Simple, strong, and smart. Faithful and loving to her family and loved back emmensely.
God Bless! XOXO
