25 things I'm thankful for while I'm still 25
Tomorrow is my 26th birthday. I'm not nearly as devastated about this birthday as I was about the ones in the past. I cried when I turned 21 because someone called me ma'am, I refused to celebrate my 25th because Jus told me I was a quarter of the way to 100. Nothing is going to rain on my parade this year.
I have a lot to be thankful for in the almost 26 years I've been a live. Here's 25 of them:
1. My Family - always supportive and loving
2. My Mother - she's my best friend
3. Jus - loves me even when I pout and throw a fit
4. Good Credit - I couldn't have bought the things I have if I didn't have it
5. Beverage Consumers - you help pay the bills and secure my future
6. Pumpkin Spice Cappucinos from Speedway - taste great, keeps me awake, only cost $1
7. Good Health
8. My Love for Animals - Cali, Dude and Trip
9. My New Home
10. Faith
11. A Good Sense of Humor
12. Veterans - Thank you Mike!
13. The Ohio State Buckeyes
14. Volleyball on Friday Nights
15. Graeter's Chocolate Chip Ice Cream
16. Sunshine - always make me feel better
17. Clorox Wipes
18. Clinique All About Eyes Rich Cream
19. Finally getting a full time job!
20. Target
21. Zyrtec Allergy Pills - must have to survive
22. Love for Adventure
23. Willingness to try new things
24. Clever Comebacks
25. I believe in and love myself more than I ever have before
Jus decided he wanted to make a list of his own. He is thankful for the following:
1. Frozen Pizza
2. Having a job
3. Leftover Halloween Candy
4. Me! Aw.

Freaky Friday!
Halloween is my favorite holiday. Once a year I get to dress up in costume, shamelessly eat candy until my teeth rot and watch all the movies that will give me nightmares for the next month. I'm actually more excited about the Are You Afraid of the Dark and Goosebumps marathon than anything.
This will be the first year I get to pass out candy. I now understand why as kids we never got any Snickers or Reese Cups... candy is outrageously expensive! But since this is our first year in the neighborhood, we decided to splurge a little. Our front porch is decorated with mums and quirky jack-o-lanterns. I wanted to dress the dog up like a ghost to scare the kids but Jus said that was a bad idea. He would just chew the sheet up or lick everyone to death. I attempted to paint his nails green last night but he wouldn't sit still enough to let me do them. Sheesh, dogs these days!
A couple weeks ago Jus and I made Halloween Gifts for the girls in SACC at the Y. I've been watching these girls for over 2 years and since I wouldn't be working in the mornings anymore, I decided to do something nice. I put candy corn, M&M's, and peanuts in ghost bags (Jus picked out), tied spider rings and Halloween Silly Bands with ribbon to close the tops, then taped on crazy eyed glasses. Needless to say, they loved it!

What are your plans for Halloween?

Whew, how much excitement can one girl have in a year? Visited family for the first time in Seattle. Bought a house. Bought a new car. Adopted a doggie. Finally got a full time job! GWA (Girls Weekend Away) to Chicago at the end of the month. Turning 21 for the 6th time in the beginning on November... I'll never fess up to actually turning 26.
I'm pretty much stoked on life right now! To celebrate, I think I'll hit the local winery after work and buy the only bottle of wine I've ever liked...
