Thankful Thursday
Good morning! It's my Friday 
@GoldenPenguin is going to be at my house tonight! We're going to drink wine and watch Grey's.
Tomorrow the plan is to be lazy and watch season 1 of AHS. At some point I have to pack for the weekend and then we're heading to @lasak's new house!
Saturday is @beanbot2002's shower and bachelorette party and I can't wait to squeeze her! It's going to be a great day and I hope that it's the best day ever for @beanbot2002
On Sunday, @GoldenPenguin and I have to get up early and head home because she has about 2389743 hours of driving ahead of her.
I'm going to meet my mom for lunch for her birthday then head home. Grocery shopping and cleaning up the house will need to happen and then I'll watch TWD before bed.

I'm thankful for my PTO. I get 6 weeks (vacation, sick, and personal days) and I feel very fortunate for that.
I'm thankful for StitchFix and not having to shop for clothes in stores. I also love the surprise each month.
I'm thankful for pumpkin coffee and apple butter.
I'm thankful for cool weather. It felt so good sleeping in my chilly bedroom and then stepping outside this morning as I left for work. It was refreshing.
I'm thankful for H. He makes me laugh consistently and loves me even if I have stinky toots.

Re: Thankful Thursday
That sounds like fun! My friends all have kids so I feel like no one can just come over and veg out and watch trashy shows with me anymore. And I am soooo jealous of your vacation time that is really above average! I have 3 weeks. Sick days are technically not counted or kept track of but I don't like to look bad so I only use about 3 per year.
It's basically my Friday too, as I'm working from home tomorrow to wait for the garage door installation guys. Yay to getting that done right before it gets too cold!
Last night I met one of my oldest friends for shopping and dinner. I'm thankful that even though we've had our ups and downs over the years that we always make it through and stay close!
I'm thankful that H's work training is ending early tonight so we can have time for snuggles- have barely seen him all week.
@swazzle have fun this weekend and share lots of pics!
@cocobellaf I would be thankful for only 3 meetings too! 6 is like your whole day in meetings, I would go crazy.
Last night I made a BA meal (broccoli, pasta and cheese casserole). There were a lot of leftovers so we'll have that for dinner tonight. H went for a walk for like an hour, then we watched TV and I fell asleep at like 8pm or so, I don't remember.
Today is just work and then therapy. We might go get subs at an amazing sub place nearby where our therapist is, the only problem is it'll probably be busy now that school is back in session. It could be worth the wait though.
*******************************
I'm thankful for my H, family and friends who have been really supportive lately. Especially H, he's been the most supportive and I don't know what I would do without him.
I'm thankful for my job. As much as I hate, hate, HATE my office now, I'm thankful that my boss will work with me when I have to come in late, leave early, take time off, etc. and doesn't complain or question it.
I'm thankful for my fur babies, two out of three of them follow me around constantly. It used to annoy me, now I love it. Even when pooping, they're both there, staring at me, but whatever makes them happy.
I'm thankful for noise-cancelling headphones at work. I can drown out the background talk that I hear 8 hours a day.
Still here and still fabulous!

@buddysmom80 hahah my scavenger picture is my cat watching me poop- that's hilarious!! I think all pets do that, right?!
@labro thanks for reminding me to sign up for annual termite inspection/coverage on the new house! Have fun getting the truck, drive home safe!
@beanbot2002 have a wonderful shower & bachelorette!
@twodimes congrats to your friend, baby name?
Yesterday I worked my bum off and got my case turned in for review, and on my way home from work thought of 10,000 things I could have done to make it better. Oh well. I spent most my evening running to stores, and once I got home I did laundry and hung up some white lights around the quilt I hung behind my bed. It looks SO cozy now. Rest of the evening was spent coloring in an adult coloring book (flowers, not penises).
Today I'm going though my huge to-do list at work to prioritize what needs done first. I'm insanely confused about one thing I need to do, but my supervisor is useless to help since he has never done one of these, and the director is too busy. So I gotta figure it out myself!
After work I'm meeting one of my girlfriends for a drink, we haven't hung out in a while. I'm worried about her though, for the past couple years she's been on-and-off with a guy that is abusive to her mentally/emotionally and is extremely manipulative. I've tried to calmly talk to her about my concerns, told her about my own experiences with my ex, and just when I think she understands that it's NOT her fault, and it's NOT in her head, and decides to leave him "for good," they end up back together within a month or two. Rinse, repeat. I want to help her so badly, she deserves SO much better, but I have no idea what to do to get her to realize that.
After the post-work drink there is an Art Walk event downtown, so we will probably walk around for that. BF might join us at that point.

I'm thankful that my car was fixed and works like a charm again.
I'm thankful I left the manipulative and emotionally/mentally abusive guy I dated a few years ago, even though everyone thought I was "crazy" and "overreacting" at the time.
I'm thankful that I met BF exactly when I needed too. Any sooner and I might not have been ready.
I'm thankful that my job is flexible, because I was a half hour late this morning. (oops)
@minskat30 I'm just so excited for you! Growing a baby is truly such a miraculous thing! It's hard for me to wrap my mind that Callie was chilling in me for 9 months.
@TwoDimes I'm thankful for all your Indy pictures! They make me smile!
@buddysmom80 lol!! Maddux loves to follow me to the bathroom! I hate it because he Tries to stick his head in the toliet to see what's happening! It's awful lol.
I'm thankful for my incredible husband. I didn't think I could love you more than I when I did before Callie but seeing you as a Dad shows me a whole other side of attractiveness of you and I just love you so much as a father! You're the perfect dad for Callie!
I'm thankful for my daughter! I'm thankful she is healthy and developing. I love watching all the changes that happen each day.
I'm thankful for my pup Maddux! Even though you have a hard time leaving Callie alone, I'm so glad you're gentle with her and love her!
I'm thankful for @labro ! She is seriously the best aunt ever who comes to rescue me when I'm crying in my pjs because I can't get dressed or eat. Callie loves you so much already!
I'm thankful for my parents and dh's parents for how much they have helped us out these past couple weeks! We couldn't have done it without them.
