The Obligatory Thanksgiving Entry

I feel like I have a hangover without the fun of last night. For some reason I've been feeling really tired these past few weeks, starting from when I moved. It's unusual and I can't figure out why. Usually I have more energy than this. Maybe it's hard to get back into a busy routine. Hectic schedule? Not enough caffeine? I hope it's a temporary thing.

Anyway, I am super happy to be back home for a few days. Mocha is now fully adjusted to family life and super fat. She felt noticeably heavier when I picked her up. What a lucky puppy. Besides the fact that I love Thanksgiving because I get a long weekend and also get to eat super good food that takes multiple workouts to offset, it once again reminds me of how thankful I should be.

1) Family
2) Friends
3) Job
4) Food
5) Car
6) Place to Live
7) Independence
8) Health
9) Education
10) Dog

Health should be higher on the list. I wrote down each one without thinking about it too much, which I guess is reflective of what I value more in my life. In all of this, I'm not just thankful, I'm grateful. Grateful to have the people in my life who care about and love me unconditionally. When I'm stuck between a rock and a hard place, I think about them. And at the same time, I hope they know I care about them the same way they do about me, even if I don't talk about or show it all the time. That's all I can ask for, really...and maybe a few other material things ;)

On another note, I hope I'll have time to blog every once in a while, including those super-ranty, nonsensical, philosophical entries about nothing in particular. I do like blogging about myself (hahaha) but it would be nice to make it something beyond a me-me blog.
