Ok, don't get me wrong, I love my parents very much, and they have given me so many opportunities. I love my sister,as well. She has been there for me, and even though sometimes she can be a pain in the butt, I love her to death. My friends have been so very important to me. They made me feel so welcome when I first moved here, and we have all been friends since then. They are an awesome bunch of guys and I know they will always be there for me.
But I have come to realize that Ken has been a very big part of my "growing up" these past 2 years that we have been together. He has supported me in all my decisions, helped me organize my finances, and made me realize just how important an education is. He has worked so hard to get where he is today, sacrificing a lot of things that most people take for granted. He knows what he wants out of life and lets nothing get in his way to achieve his goals. He is a very inspiring person, and for that I am so very thankful to have him in my life. Seeing how hard he works and sticking to his guns even when times get tough has make me realize that I have missed so many things in my life because I had given up.
It is because of this that I have decided to return to and FINISH school. It has always been on my "To-Do" list, but it wasn't top priority. And the more I talk about it, and tell people that I am going back, the more excited I am getting. I have always wanted to finish school, but I didn't know what I wanted to go for. And, now that I know what I want to do, I feel that it is exactly what I have been waiting for.
I just want to say - Thank you, Ken. For all that you do for me. You have taught me so much, and I am looking forward to learning more.
What I am thankful for:
My Mom and Dad still married and in love
Ali and Doug
Ken, my one and only
Having an amazing childhood
Having every opportunity to reach my goals
Having the opportunity to continue my education
Having a job so I can afford food, clothing and shelter
Having wonderful friends that I know I can count on no matter what
The gifts and talents I was born with
Being able to make my own decisions
Having people who support me in my decisions
Being able to afford luxuries (Car, iPod, computer, etc.)
Being healthy and aware of the consequences of living an unhealthy lifestyle
Having people who love and care about me
Being able to make other people happy, even if I may not know it
See, I brought in my iPod today. And my co-worker is still trying to talk to me! I can't hear her so I'm just kinda ignoring her. Oops! I like my iPod and my music on it so an happy.
I really have to start to remember to bring my iPod with me to work. A
- because the radio music stinks sometimes, and B - because that way I
won't have to half-hear the ramblings of my co-worker. She mumbles, a
lot. Sometimes it is to herself, other time she does it when she's
talking to me. So, I'm always saying "Huh?" or "What did you say?" It
is so annoying! She also chuckles to herself for no good reason. It's
kinda creepy.
But, anyways ... Things are going well. I didn't get to go to the
hockey game yesterday, but it's okay. Thursday's game should be fun,
plus they are giving away a replica jersey. So that is really neat.
I think I'm gonna go out with Ali after work today, maybe. I have to
see how I feel. Hmmm.
Ugh. Thank goodness it is the weekend! It hasn't been a horrible week, but it just dragged.
I didn't go to the hockey game Thursday night. I wasn't feeling well. I got home and, because of the weather change, my skin gets really itchy and dry. So at like 7:00 I took some Benedryl. I was PTFO at 8:30. It was nice. I slept for 10 hours. I feel kinda bad though cause Ken came in when I was laying down and was talking about something, I don't recall what, and I wasn't very nice to him. But I swear it was the Benedryl talking.
Speaking of Ken, he had a very important interview yesterday, with a very important company. I hope things went well! I have so much faith in him. I enjoy supporting him while he is in school. And I mean supporting him by encouraging him, having faith in him, and always thinking positively.
There is a hockey game tonight. I am really looking forward to this one cause they are giving away a blanket! I get so cold there, it will come in handy.
