1. I'm grateful for those people who do stick around.

2. I'm grateful for that whole Taylor Swift incident today.

take up drawer space!!

5 Things ...4/4/07

It's the end of another day and I feel like crying. I found out the full story on Logan and now I feel worse.

4. I'm grateful for dogs that love me even when I look like hell.

5. I'm grateful for friends that I can talk to or call and tell all my shit to, even though they may be bored as hell.

5 Things....4/3/07

So I heard a long time ago that everyday you should write down at least 5 things you're grateful for. It doesn't matter if the things are trivial, as long as they're something you're glad you have. I've been thinking about doing that for a while now but I never seem to get around to it. Today has been a stressful day and I think I need to find something positive to get my focus off the negative. So, without further adieu..............

1. I'm grateful that I live in a house where my backyard faces the sunset. There are many days that I get to see some really awesome sunsets.

2. I'm grateful that I have makeup. It makes me look better.

3. I'm grateful I have friends who let me talk about my kids incessantly, or else I might spontaneously combust some days.

4. I'm grateful for pizza places that make the pizzas for you and all you have to do is pop them in the oven.

5. I'm grateful for kids who listen to me, even though they may think I'm a moron sometimes.
