Thanksgiving is a great time of year. It reminds me of everything that I am thankful for.
- I am thankful for my friends and family.
- I am thankful to work at a job that I really enjoy.
- Despite the fact that we bicker sometimes, I'm thankful for having a roommate that is a great friend.
- I'm thankful for knowing that I have people that I can always count on.
- I'm thankful for such a great workout buddy, without her I probably would have quit a long time ago.
Those are some of the few things that I'm thankful for. I am really thankful that this year has taught me so much. I have learned so much about me. I realized that I'm much stronger than I thought.
Now to new stuff:
So now on to the best/worst time of year. This is by far my most favorite time of year, I love everything about it, but on the flip side, it reminds me how alone I am. This is way worse than valentine's day. Everything has to be in a big group or as a couple. You typically can't go see christmas stuff by yourself. I love seeing holiday lights and sharing so much with the ones I love.
So anyway enough of that, some of the fun stuff I have already done and that I am going to do.
This past weekend I went to see a play at centerstage. It was American Buffalo, not my favorite but it was ok. Before we went over to the show we had some amazing tacos and good home brewed beer. Saturday I went to work then went out for Dollar Days. I went back to the Top of the World Trade Center. It was beautiful, we could see for miles. Then we went over to the sports legends museum. After that we headed back to fells point to watch the lighted boat parade and grab dinner. It was so nice, my favorite boat was still the boat that has lights to make it look like a sleigh in the back and reindeer getting ready to take off on the front. Then Sunday we went and cut down our christmas trees, mine was a little 4-5 foot tree that fit perfectly on my table. Unfortunately, my lights didn't work when I plugged them in so I will have to get more lights today. I also got a poinsettia from the garden center right by the tree farm to be a little more festive. Then I went over to Sean and Amanda's to watch the Raven's game and watch them partially make beer. It was a very full weekend.
Coming up over the next few weeks:
*Canton lamp post lighting
*Merritt Holiday Party
*Hand bell choir at the DC Mormon Temple Visitor's Center
*Kickball Christmas Party at Julie's
*Symphony of Lights
*Christmas on 34th Street
*Charlie Brown Christmas at the Science Center with live music
*Work Holiday Party
That doesn't include the holiday specials and movies that I watch, cause those are part of the norm. It will be a busy season that I hope will be as enjoyable as I plan it to be.
Enjoy the holidays and say hi to someone you don't know. You might just make their day when you wish them a happy holiday.
