Today officially kicks off the holiday season. Are you ready? I’m sure not!

Today is also a day of thanks. To be honest, I’m really thankful 2008 is almost over. This has been a rough year for me.

I have a lot of other things to be grateful for though.

I’m thankful my dad is still as healthy as can be. That my dog, Princess, lived a long, happy life. I’m so thankful for the past 5 years with William. I couldn’t imagine my life without him – he was my lover, best friend, go-to guy. He’s my person and always will be. I’m thankful for his family. I love them. I’m thankful I brought a little 7 pound ball of fluff and ears home in February. Who knew a puppy can bring so much light into someone’s life? I’m thankful for friends, both real life and internet. I couldn’t have survived this past year without you. I’m thankful Stephanie Meyers wrote a dumb book about vampires, they were a distraction I surely needed. I’m thankful change is coming. I’m thankful I found my place and scored an internship where I’ll be able to grow and develop.

Most of all, as much of a mess this year has been so far, I’m thankful I still have hope.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Eat those leftovers tomorrow and throw in a moistmaker.

Happy Thanksgiving Jamie – I hope things ease up next year, you deserve all the success, comfort and happiness that the world can throw at you.

Seeee, that scene is based off of me. All I eat are thanksgiving leftovers for the next week or so and when I run out it is a TRAGEDY. I go…mental.

Don’t touch my food!!!

Happy Thanksgiving Jamie! Hope it’s a great one and the year to follow as well. And you get a moistmaker sandwich to follow

Haha. i love that episode of friends where ross gets really upset about the sandwich.

And i completely agree with you. i want 2008 to be over with as well. its been one long year.

Happy Thanksgiving! Here’s to a fun holiday season…and a swift end to 2008. I am so over this year.

Such a great list of blessing! I might do one as well.

I feel like I’ve been reading across the board that 2008 was a rough year for a lot of people (and I’ll drink to that). Here’s to things looking “up” and Happy Thanksgiving!

I’m glad I made a thankful list, too. Just doing that made me feel better. Hope yorus did, too.

Happy Thanksgiving! It sounds like you have much in your favor despite a rough year. I hope next year is much smoother for you. HUGS

Love the sandwich episode and Ross. Saw him in NYC and could hardly contain myself. Cute blog.

dude, now I’m totally in the mood for a sandwich now.
mmmm, sandwich….

I totally went out and bought Twilight on Black Friday. After I swore I wasn’t going to read it. I’m starting it today. I’m probably going to hate myself for it!

Happy belated Thanksgiving, Jamie!
