I’ve decided to follow the trend and post something I’m thankful for every day in November. I was thinking about this on my way to work today and I decided I needed to do something for December too. The holidays always bring out the best in me. So November will be things I’m thankful for, and December will be wishes; not just wishes for what I want for Christmas, but grand wishes that take more than money to earn.
Now I know I’m behind on the daily thankful posts considering it’s already November 3rd (Where did October go??) So today I will write three things I’m thankful for and hopefully this series will help motivate me to write every, single day.
Here are the three things I am grateful for right now.
- I’m going to just get this one over with. My job. I really, really dislike my job. BUT I have to be thankful for it. Because of my job I have healthcare and income every month. I am able to save money for the things I want out of life, and I have money to support myself. So as much as I complain about it, and look for new jobs, I still am thankful for the one that I have.
- My pet. Having a pet really is a privilege. I am very thankful that I have a companion who can keep me company and cuddle with me when it’s cold. He is a pain in the ass a lot of the time, but he is sweet and comforting the rest of the time. He is healthy (for the most part) and I have been able to watch him grow from a 2lb kitten who needed to grow into his ears and his fur, to the lazy, 14 lb fuzzball that he is. I am grateful for Ninja!
- My health. Despite the fact that I am getting over a cold and I still don’t quite have my voice back. I am overall pretty healthy. I don’t have any tragic diseases (that I am aware of) and I can bounce back from illness fairly quickly. For that, I am very grateful.
