11 Reasons to be Thankful

So, Thanksgiving is easily one of my favorite holidays. The weather is just plain gross out there, so we’re stuck inside anyway — why not hang out with people we love? Add in delicious food, some football, a parade and a dog show and really — I could not be happier.

This year I’m thankful for a lot of things. Since I love lists, I’ll just list some of the things I’m thankful for (things for which I’m thankful?) here.

I’m thankful for:

  1. Staying grounded. Literally. I’m glad I don’t have to fly to see my loved ones.
  2. Shelter. When it’s pouring down rain, I’m grateful I am inside.
  3. Words with Friends, the Scrabble game on my phone — I’m koprim if anyone wants to play!
  4. Scarves with pockets.
  5. The fuzzy feeling of a new sweatshirt.
  6. Christmas jammies.
  7. Coffee in the morning. A working coffee pot, and a boss who’s nice enough to buy me a coffee when the pot breaks.
  8. Fresh sheets.
  9. Cheese.
  10. Other people’s pets. All the fun, none of the responsibility!
  11. Realizing that every single one of my problems is a first world problem.
