Days of Thanks : Days 6-13

Yes I have a lot of catching up to be doing right now... the posts from facebook will be italicized and i will elaborate if i feel like it lol.
Lets start with Day 6:

I'm thankful for my family's, friends' and coworkers' impeccable sense of humor. Oh my goodness this is going to be a fun week. Thank you for making my life full of laughter!

(Alexus) I'm thankful that my mommy and my Grandma  and my Uncle can make me laugh. And that we laugh often :)


Now, I posted about sense of humor because i know a lot of jobs in the air force, they don't really joke and have a good time at work. they sit there all day with their face stuck to a computer being bored and not communicating with anyone at all. I personally could NEVER stand that. i need to be able to joke with the people i am around or i will lose my mind. life was not meant to be boring. so don't let it be that way. LIVE LAUGH LOVE. Now for Alexus's part it kind of played off of mine obviously. But i tried to make it make sense for a one-year-old.


Days of Thanks : Day Seven - I am thankful for the freedoms we have in this country even though I can't fully participate in some of them. I am very thankful though, that my daughter can participate and I intend to encourage her to participate in those freedoms to the fullest. I am thankful for the founding fathers and for their hard work in setting this country up. Still, I would imagine they might be disappointed in how things have evolved today in terms of government. Oh well. I'm still thankful for what we have, as compared to other, more oppressed countries.

I think that one stands on its own....


Day Eight- Today we are thankful for good food to eat, from basic stuff like milk eggs and bread to the fancier stuff like steak salmon and shrimp. Desserts and breakfast food. Sandwiches pasta and cereal. Fruits and veggies especially. Yummy! Thankful also for the ability to taste all these yummy things :)

This day i think i ate something i really enjoyed but i don't remember what it was. I am such a foodie i don't know what i would do if i couldn't taste it!

Days of Thanks : Day Nine- we are thankful for music today. Good music, good beats, good bass. Wish we could get some quality back into our music that's being put out these days though. 
I was listening to a really good song this day that I had recently rediscovered in going through my iTunes. I love music and i love a good beat. but i hate what a lot of music has become.. Nikki Minaj --STOP TRYING TO MAKE MUSIC YOU ARE HORRIBLE AT IT.... that goes for a lot of other newer artists coming out today too but she is in like every remix and every song and it drives me bonkers.

Day Ten- today we are thankful for mommy having a working vehicle that can take us everywhere we need to go.

Even though i don't really like the car i have right now i am thankful that it gets me to work and back as well as across town to do fun stuff now and then. and even though i am about to have to replace some decently costly things on it... at least i have one and it runs.. a lot of people don't.

 Day Eleven - today we are thankful for all the men and women who have fought and currently fight for our country by serving in the military. No matter if they deploy or not, each person has a vital role and a greater purpose than what they may think. I only realized this after listening to a speech from a commander after our big inspection. It went a little something like this :
We may get poked fun at because we are a test and training base, but you need to realize that if we didn't test and train we wouldn't ever issue out bigger and better things. We would be stuck with the same stuff we had in the 1940s. So take pride in your work at this test and training base. Its because of all of us that we are the best air force in the world.

So yes I take huge pride in my job. No we don't always do the right thing or do things the right way but where would we be if no one served and no one cared?


Again... this DEFINITELY stands for itself.

Days of Thanks ~ Day 12 that I missed- I am thankful for a brain to think eyes to see a nose to smell ears to hear and a heart to love. 
Even though this one is short i don't think it really needs elaboration either. sometimes the most simple phrases carry the most meaning. 

 Day 13 ~ I am thankful for true, faithful friends. Friends who love me for who I am even when I mess up in a big way or a small way or in between. I am thankful for their honesty and compassion. I am thankful for the love of those who love me


this is the post from today. maybe I'm just getting lazy from typing all this but i think that one is pretty solid too.




Thanks for reading :)
