Happy Thanksgiving

Hello friends,

This is the second annual Thanksgiving edition of "A Day in the Life...". It's hard to believe I've been keeping up with this internet journal for more than a year now. I was reading the post from Thanksgiving 2004, and was a bit surprised that most of it still rings true today. Granted, only a year has gone by... but it was a big year and one full of change. However, I still don't love Turkey Day... I still look forward to the day I am able to start new family traditions with a family of my own... and I still want to make a list of the things I am thankful for on this special day.

Minnesota Sunrises
Imagination of a child
Wisdom of the elderly
Creativity
Swingsets
Harmony
Acoustic music
Yellow Roses
Praying for someone
Morning coffee
Giving gifts
Meaningful Conversation
The cold side of the pillow
Silent laugher
Candle Light
Nervous butterflies
Hearing "I love you"
Chilly mornings
Thunder Storms
Saying "I love you"
Hooded sweatshirts
Hearing my cell phone ring
Learning something new
Pay Day
Singing in the shower
Lazy weekends

That list could go on and on, but I fear that I am falling asleep at the keyboard. I, unfortunately, have to work at both of my jobs tomorrow and feel I need to get a bit of sleep before starting the day. Luckily, this weekend is shaping up to be one of the aforementioned "Lazy Weekends" and the thought of that will get me through the 14 hour day tomorrow.

I hope you all had a wonderful holiday. I will write more soon. Maybe something better than this list ;)

G*night,
tempa
