I know I've been a little AWOL these past few days, but I thought I might take a small break. Plus by the time I've been thinking about blogging I already feel too horrible to even think about doing anything but going straight to bed. However, I couldn't miss a "Five Things" posting, even if it is a day late. These posts are so important to me because it's easy to get caught up in the negatives and though I try to think positively on a day to day basis. Saying things like "at least I don't have hives" can only get me so far, particularly because I'm a little superstitious about those things and I'm not 100% sure they aren't going to come back. Which makes these posts just as important as Thanksgiving. We all need to take a little time to think about how we've been blessed and as much as I sometimes don't want to, counting my blessings every week helps remind me to look on the bright side of life and remember to be thankful for God's little blessings.
5 things I'm thankful for this week:
Babysitting sleeping children
Mostly because it means I get to catch up on my "Family Friendly" movies without any shame
Successfully keeping up with both of my 365 photo projects
You can follow my progress on
Flickr (I also have a Flickr feed in the sidebar)
Being able to take the weekend off
I had a pretty wonderful staycation this weekend
(P.S. I promise I'm not strangling Oscar and he's enjoying being loved on)
Ole Miss conquered their bowl game
And we're supposedly getting some extremely awesome recruits for next year's season
My internship is almost done
I'm definitely ready to close the whole "working for free" chapter of my life... If only I could figure out what I wanted to do next
