Oddity

It's an odd thing to be thankful for, but I'm deeply thankful that I have people who say they're sorry when they've done something deeply hurtful. It means they love me enough to care that I am hurt. And that is something to be truly thankful for.

This is what it's all about!

All day I kept thinking "I have to find something I truly FEEL thankful for." And all day I struggled. I went home exhausted from work and passed out fully dressed. I woke up ME again.

I dashed to Bed, Bath & Beyond and got the fancy toaster oven I've been dreaming of (Christmas present from my amazing Mom!). That's a huge thankful both because I'm so lucky to have a Mom who totally spoils me and I can cook the healthy food I want to eat. Junk food tanks my happiness!

After that, I visited some of my favorite people, my sister and my nephews.

I am so thankful that after a childhood at war, my sister and I are becoming the best of friends and that I get to watch my nephews grow up and discover the world.
