Daily: Reflect on 5 things for which I'm grateful.

1. At least I only have to go to holzer 3 days a week.

2. I’ll be back in class tomorrow, if I survive today, the way the weekend’s been going.

3. Got to print Egypt stuff for homework. I’ll probably save it to do during break.

4. Reni and me and Steve and a whole bunch of our other show friends are going to be on the Biography Channel :) (Mothman Documentary Reenactments)

6. Being able to count isn’t a priority yet this early in the day.

1. Rides from the Art Annex building back to the main campus.

2. Seeing the amazing Jay on my way to the library!

3. Seeing the Lovely Alena on my way to the library!

4. Being back in the fine arts building- it’s a little different since I’m there as an artist now and not as a musician like I was five years ago, but I think this will be a much better experience.

5. Having a destination on the path of life :)

6. Today’s quote: Strive to stay confused! (Because if you’re confused that means you’re learning!)

In the phrasing of Eric (who I miss- no shows for a year is going to be tough. . .)

End Gratefuls.

1. Rain.

2. I have my proposal for my comp II paper done.

3. Being in such a cool program at school- picnics, activities, and field trips since we live in the middle of nowhere.

4. Being ahead of the game in Drawing and Raster Graphics.

5. That Reni’s a Seusical fan. We went to see the River City Players perform it two weeks ago, and she’s been wanting to listen to the music ever since!

1. Grateful for long breaks between classes.

2. Grateful Steve can pick me up from school to save my mother the trip (and save me the bad vibes).

3. Grateful we’re learning about the sixties in Comp II.

4. Grateful for all the freebies I’m getting in my art classes.

5. Grateful to be doing my gratefuls after such a long break.

1- Happy Birthday Facebook Wall Posts & Myspace comments

2- Happy Birthday Graffiti on my Facebook wall

3- Happy Birthday virtual gifts, cards & alcoholic beverages!

4- A Schedule made for this evening: Harry Potter Birthday night! Seeing the movie, going out to eat and then a field trip to buy the new book!

5- Crazy Happy Birthday Answering Machine Messages that I know I’ll be getting when I get off the internet!

1. iTunes

2. Songs for a New World

3. That there are such fun people at work

4. One big meeting down, court day tomorrow.

5. New clothes

6. Going to have chic night tonight.

7. A Boy that understands the importance of chic night, although he might tease me for it a little.

I’m grateful that, upon meeting me, most of the kitchen staff thought I was 18 or 19 years old :)

Grateful Steve’s Sister & Brother in Law want me to make a flyer for them. “The girl’s good, we might as well get her to do it!” (Traci’s words)

That the boss ladies let me out earlier than I even asked for Thursday so I could take pictures of Steve’s band at the park for their site. (see above)

That they were done in time for him and me to go to Molly Brown Rehearsal.

That Susan (the music lady)’s husband is going to be okay after his 4 wheeler accident.

Going to McDonalds with Steve, Eric, Wes and Jonathan.

Reni Stories. And her pronunciation of “Tractor Supply” (Trakkah, Soo-ply)

Cinnamon Rolls in a Can.

A Day off to spend with my girl :)

I’m grateful Wanda likes to help me out.

I’m grateful Steve and his boss got employees of the month! I’m so proud!

Evil Dead the Musical, it’s pretty darn funny if you can handle all the cussing.

I’m grateful to have my kitchen clean and a little bit redecorated. And that Reni still takes naps.

I’m grateful that Reni can spend time with her father, and that we’re not fighting as bad as we used to in front of her during the switch. Not talking helps that.

I’m grateful Steve has today off, so he could come over late last night. & That he tried so hard to find me some Stewarts Cream Soda. . .

I’m grateful there are some movies that I only have to watch once. Hard Candy was good- but sheesh! That girl was crazy!

I just love this guy. I’m very grateful I found him, and that he’s still here.

Because I’ve neglected to do this for far to long :/

1. Grateful to be busy all day & to have gotten a paycheck for two weeks that was the same amount as a whole month of STEPS :) I bought lots of food last night!

2. Grateful everybody there is so helpful

3. Grateful at least half the people are so much fun, and that Bruce the Crazy Old Cook is crazier than me on a normal day by a long shot. If those old ladies can handle Bruce they can handle ANYTHING.

4. Grateful for the RN dude who made my badge work in one try after I argued with the time clock that it was NOT invalid for 3 minutes. . .

5. Grateful that on weekdays the end of my lunch corresponds with the end of Steve’s day, so he can come and see me for a few minutes before he leaves. So now we have another daily ritual to add to the Morning Emails & Good Night calls.

6. Grateful for 2 weeks of on the job training

7. Grateful for Stephen King, it gives me something to do for my 30 minute lunch break. . . (I’m on book 6 now, by the way- so. . .)

8. I guess I’m grateful that Roland, Eddie, Detta/Odetta/Susannah/Mia, Jake and Callahan defeated the Wolves of the Calla (no spoilers there, you knew they were going to. There are 7 books.)

9. This isn’t necessarily a grateful, but it’s a little freaky and Stephen King and Work related, the last number in my locker combination is 19. . . .

10. I’m grateful Reni is using a potty.

11. I’m grateful for Reni’s stories, and her dancing. . . She drew a picture of a “Googawk” the other day. A Googawk says “Gwak Gwak Gwak” and goes in the water.

12. I’m grateful that the second divorce court date is almost here and gone. One more left and I’ll be a Thompson for real again, not just a Stage name.

13. I’m grateful that Molly Brown has at least a little potential for being fun. I just love working with these people.

14. I’m grateful Julie Jordan Scott grabbed my attention to get me back to do some gratefuls :)

1 – Grateful CoCo got Molly!! She’ll be so perfect!

2 – Grateful for 2 weeks of on-the-job training

3 – Grateful (very, very grateful) for late-night visits

4 – Grateful for calls from my Jazi

5 – Grateful for my daughter’s early understanding of puns!!

We made Pizza last night, and we put bacon on it. I put it into the oven, and she says “Mommy, I can’t see it!” And I said “It’s in there, it’s bakin’” And she started to laugh, slapped my knee and said “That’s funny!” And I said, “What’s funny?” And she said “Bacon Pizza!” and I said “THAT IS FUNNY!”

sniff I’m so proud!
