So lately I haven't been the most optimistic person. I feel like I've hit a Happiness rut and into the "My life sucks" pitty me syndrome. Why? Who knows. but there is so much greatness I have in my life that sometimes focusing on the crap makes it harder to see those everyday things to be grateful for. Sometimes I need those reminders. Thank you Tiffany for the "Thankful list Challenge" This one's for you! :)
1. I'm thankful that Tiffany Herpel challenged everyone to do a thankful list. I'm pretty damn positive that at the end of all this thankfulness I'll end up feeling much better.
2. I'm thankful for Scott of course. But not just cause he's my boyfriend and I should be thankful for him anyway. But because he's just pretty amazing and makes my life that much more wonderful! :)
3. I'm thankful I have a place to live! Sometimes I think moving BACK to my parents house is a total bummer. but Hey...I have a roof over my head and it's rent FREE!
4. I'm thankful I have a vehicle. It may not be my dream car but it's new and cute and gets me wherever I need to go!
