Thankful Thursday

... i actually got eight whole hours of sleep last night. shock & awe.

... i remembered to bring my fat free french vanilla creamer to work today.  so now, instead of using the liquid, fattening kind here, i am making a healthier swap.  still creamer though so not too healthy

... tomorrow i get to go to my first grad school social at on the border for happy hour! i am thankful that i will get to know some of my fellow classmates a little better

... bret and i are going to look at more houses this weekend with our realtor.  the market is looking better and that makes our choices a lot better.

... God has given me peace about the A&M job.  i still have no official word on the position just yet but i am a lot more prepared now for their final decision.

... i am thankful i skipped my workout this morning.  i don't feel guilty and i got to lay in bed an hour longer with my feet wrapped around bret's legs.

... i am thankful i get to see my niece this weekend.  by niece i mean Madelyn Claire who i have no relations with but so help me, she will call me aunt katie.  i don't care what her parents think ;)

... i am thankful for my family and all my friends including all of my wonderful BBs.  it's crazy how much we all talk and how well i feel like i know you all.  thanks for making me smile on a daily basis!

... lastly, for today, i am thankful for Little Daisy May who graciously passed along a new award to me!

To accept this award you must tell the blog world 5 random things about yourself and pass on the award to two deserving bloggers.

5:  I pee eight million times a day.  No lie.  I have the smallest blatter in the world plus I drink way over eight glasses (HUGE glasses) of water a day. Gross? yes.  TMI? you know it. Do I care? no, you said "random things" so that's what you got.

4:  I take happy pills.  By happy pills I mean Zoloft and it keeps me from lashing out at everyone around me.  I haven't been on them long but believe-you-me, I can tell a major difference.  Before happy pills, HEB was torture to me because of the way-to-slow thousands of people on every aisle.  Now? meh, whatever.

3:  I hate new car smells.

2:  I cheat when I play Words With Friends.  Not all the time.  But, if I have no idea what to play, I pull up the handy-dandy scrabble solver on line, type in my letters and go from there.  So, if you ever get a word you have never heard of from me it's because I either A) got very lucky by throwing random letters out there - which does happen! or B) I cheated.  In my defense though, I cheat because you are all smarter than me! And, even with cheating, I still lose.  Sad, but true.

1:  I wiggle my toes constantly.  Even in my sleep.  Wiggle.  They are wiggling as we speak!

I would like to pass this award on to some newest reads:

Meagan over @ Megs7827 who I can already tell is going to be such a doll

and

Neely over @ Neely's Nothings who I believe I am going to have a lot in common with!

Random:  For all you bloggers who do the Roses & Thorns posts, did you guys know the Obama's do that every night around the dinner table?  The lovely First Lady told Matt Lauer about it during a Today Show interview.  Found it interesting and wanted to share!

HAPPY THURSDAY MY PEEPS!!
