Thankful

Thanksgiving is such a weird holiday. Its like lets celebrate Europeans annihilating Native American culture by buying unreasonable amounts of food and then eating until we almost barf. Also lets post everyday for the whole month generic things we are thankful for on facebook while we are at it. Lets get together with our dysfunctional families and watch football. Or maybe your family is really functional- I dont know. And I am not saying I dont like Thanksgiving, I mean I like eating absurd amounts of food until I hate myself and posting stuff all over facebook as much as the next guy. Maybe more. In fact I am pretty sure there will be a picture of my kids posted on facebook doing something really adorable in Thanksgiving outfits that day, do not despair. My husband got called off work, so I decided to make a list of generic things I am thankful for:

1. I am really thankful that my husband got called off work and took over the bathing of the screaming angry toddlers because I was starting to question my ability to maintain my sanity.
2. Yoga pants.
3. Those little Krackle chocolate bars.
4. 30 rock reruns on Netflix.
5. That somehow I function in society and maintain gainful employment. And that I get to wear whatever shoes I want to work everyday.
6. That I am not pregnant.
7. That my babies are so freaking adorable.
8. Ben N Jerry's chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream.
9. My husband thinks I am cute.
10. My dog thinks I am pretty much the coolest person who ever lived.
11. That I have 5 whole followers that read my blog and care what I have to say (thanks Grandma)
12. That my pant size is currently in the single digits.
13. Shirts that hide muffin tops.
14. Red red wine
15. That I know all the words to Beck's Loser.
16. That my kids sleep at night sometimes.
17. That no one in my house has thrown up for at least a month
18. Central heat and air
19. that owls are trendy now
20. that I actually have family and friends who can stand to be around me

Happy Thanksgiving Everyone:)
