Day Twenty One through Twenty Seven


Um.... I've been on vacation from just about everything, including posting my thankfulness. I am recommitting myself at this moment, yet again, to being much better at this. So much of this last week has been such a weird blur. A lot has happened with life and where I thought things were going versus where I think things are going now. Here's everything I can remember (which isn't easy for a scatter-brain like myself):

I am thankful that my work week went by fairly quick.

I am thankful that the people Meisha works with turned out to be pretty fun people to hang out with. I was a little nervous.

I am thankful there were at least a few more people at The Office this weekend. It felt a little livelier than last time, which I think was good for the people we were with. They probably had a little more fun that way.

I am thankful that we actually had fun at The One and Only. I haven't ever had much desire to go there and don't necessarily have much desire to go back, but we had fun.

I'm thankful that I have a wife that likes to dance. I don't think I'm very good, but we still have fun.

I'm thankful that John (or Jon- I don't know) and April actually want to hang out with us again. We've hung out with so many people since we've been in St. George and it's nice to have people who want to continue hanging out.

I'm thankful that at least woke up when Michael rang the door bell on Saturday. He texted me twice and called me twice and I slept right through. Maybe I need to set a doorbell ringtone for my alarm =)

I am thankful that I didn't have to drive to Brian Head. I was tired and it was nice to relax on the way.

I'm thankful for free ski passes. Skiing is always more fun when you don't have to pay!

I'm thankful that Michael had some hook-ups at Brian Head and got me some poles. I think mine are in storage. It would have sucked to hit some of the flat spots we did without poles.

I am thankful for soup in a bread bowl. One of the best cold day meals ever.

I am thankful that we were some of the first people on the chair lift. Fresh tracks are something everyone deserves to experience at least once in life.

I am thankful that I was able to recognize that being really out of shape when skiing should motivate me to work harder instead of making me think that skiing and my body just suck now. I don't know if that makes any sense, but it does to me and that's what matters right? Right.

I'm thankful that I was able to ski all but one hour of the day without breaking anything or blowing my knee out. I was in a lot of pain, but nothing broken XD

I am thankful for the hour I had sitting in the truck waiting for Michael. It was a nice relaxing wind down and I needed it very much.

MOST OF ALL... I am thankful Meisha let me go skiing while she stayed home. It was extremely nice of her.

I am thankful that Mickey and Heather re-introduced us to the Mongolian BBQ. Good food and a nice break up of the normal food we usually get.

I am thankful that neither of us had to work on Monday so that we could go to Vegas with Heather and Mickey on a whim.

I'm at work and have to go home now. More to come later.....

I am thankful that Mickey and Heather already had a hotel room and let us stay with them.

I am thankful that we were able to just walk the strip, not gamble and still have a lot of fun.

I am thankful that I always have the best looking wife in the bunch ^^

I am thankful that I don't have to deal with a lot of the emotional issues that everyone in our group seemed to be dealing with in one way or another.

I am thankful the Dan Marino's had good food (and that we were able to find anything at all at 3:30 in the morning). Usually the 24 hour in-hotel places kinda suck.

I am thankful that the bed we slept in was slightly comfortable for a hotel bed.

I am thankful that we went back to Dan Marino's for breakfast. Good food. Again. I love breakfast buffets.

I am thankful that Meisha decided to stay a little longer and sleep in. It wouldn't have been fun to drive back so early. Especially for the reasons we would have had to.

I am thankful for the Oakley store. I love just about everything Oakley makes. It's all beatiful to look at.

I am thankful we went to Seattle's Best for coffee instead of Starbucks. They seem to always have people who are truly passionate for coffee (and they always make it better). Chocolate shavings, whipped cream with caramel drizzle on top... OOOOOOOhhhh baby.

I am thankful the drive home from Vegas wasn't too bad and I didn't even get tired.

I am thankful Meisha and I had most of the day on Monday to talk. It seems like we always need to talk, but I almost always feel better when we're done.

I am thankful for the decision Meisha made. It TRULY made me happy.

I am thankful that Meisha let me get a Red Box movie. The movie kind of sucked, but it was nice to let my brain slow down from the weekend's events.

I am thankful for sleep. In my "own" bed. And freshly washed sheets. And sleep. Did I mention sleep?

I am thankful that we didn't sleep in terribly late this morning. Only 1.5 hours late for work :) oops.

I am thankful Kevan called me about something this morning so that I could be thankful for the thankful above.

I am thankful nobody really got mad at me for being late. It just would have sucked this morning.

I am thankful that I don't have to work every day. I realized after being back, that I really didn't miss it. AT ALL.

I am thankful that I didn't fall too far behind anybody on the sales board while I was gone for the weekend. 1.5 cars and I'm back on top!

I am thankful that I didn't have to work as late as Meisha did. I know she is not liking her job right now and had a tough day. I'm glad she's doing her best to at least not give up working. I'm thankful for that.

I am thankful that we have enough money to pay some rent this month.

I am thankful that I don't have to work until 11 tomorrow. As long as I don't get drug into work stuff while I'm home, I sure will enjoy my time in the morning.

I am thankful that I came up with a schedule again. It's a hell of a lot easier for me to do all the things I should be doing when they're on a schedule.

I am thankful that Meisha is here,(at home)now, asleep and not anywhere else. Again and again and again, I am just thankful for Meisha.
