Some time this Fall, I think it was mid-September, I went into a blurry haze of sleep deprivation that I'm finally starting to awaken from. Within this time of fogginess a few key things have happened: Chris turned 2 and started talking, We put our house on the market, I cut my foot on a ceramic cupcake and gained 10 lbs. and most importantly I finally let go of my control issues with money and am letting God rule my finances. With all the madness of life I missed posting my Thanksgiving list of things I'm thankful for. So here it goes.....

I am unbelievably, undeniably thankful for:

God's grace - he is constantly picking me back up

TJ, Chris, and Tom - they are why I get out of bed each morning

Mom & Dad who always have good advice, even if I don't take it

My sisters who listen unconditionally to my babble and forgive my self-centeredness

My best friend kelly and her beautiful new baby girl - Emmary

My job and Tom's job - just the fact that we still have one, so many people don't this holiday

Saxby-Chambliss won GA and the democrats don't have full control of the house :)

Tacos - so easy to make and soooooo good!

Christmas Trees farms and hot chocolate - even when it's 70 degrees out

my electric toothbrush

Books on CD

The Fox news channel on Sirius Satellite radio

Heroes - so worth staying up for on Monday nights

Hi Karin. I love reading blogs- especially of people I know, so I just skimmed through a bunch of your posts. First I have to say, who wouldn't be thankful for tacos?
Second, how funny that your little boy didn't know what a snow brush is! Unfortunately, mine are altogether too familiar with snowbrushes already.
I'm so glad you found me on facebook. It's fun to see what you are doing these days.
