Today I am grateful for:
-Having a day off. I was able to lie in bed and fully recover from the plague. Woof it was bad. I still have a cough but I'm so glad the other stuff is gone.
-My roommate. He's a pretty cool dude. He got me a really nice scarf for Christmas. I'm impressed. He's got my number.
-Padre coming over to my place and bringing all of our favorite foods from around town to have for dinner. The food was great! I couldn't finish we had so much. (Not to mention I haven't eaten properly in like 3 days because of the plague) It was a bit awkward as far as dinner conversations go, and by conversation I mean lack there of, but isn't that what Christmas is all about anyway?
-A Christmas Story. That movie is timeless. I can recite it pretty much word for word I think.
-Jen Scott. (I cheated and opened Jen's Christmas presents tonight.) She got me this really cool journal with colored pencils, an eraser, and sharpener. I told her I was going to be taking this online course about creativity coming up in the new year and the only thing I was going to need was a journal and some colored pencils. Everything she got me is exactly what I need for this project. She honestly went above and beyond. I am so thankful for her in my life. I feel like I learn something from her every time I see her. Her generosity and kindness is unmatched. I aspire to have the connection and compassion that she always seems to hold for others.
-The tradition padre started with me when I was young that we continue to do to this day. Every Christmas eve we bake cookies and deliver them to fire fighters that have to work on Christmas eve night. It's really fun. They always seem grateful and sometimes a little awkward, but again, isn't that what Christmas is all about anyway?
-The basics
-Light
-Love
-Laughter
-As always, my friends.
