Happy Turkey Death Day
Gotta love that day where you can be thankful for being alive by cramming your face full of delicious food. OM NOM NOM.
Seriously though, I'm thankful for a lot-
-the roof I have over my head (courtesy of my boyfriend Paul, whom I've been with for 10 years)
-the love I have (courtesy of my dear Tessa (flamingo_bandit) and Paul)
-the fact that while I don't have tons of money, I have enough to get by and be comfortable
-the fact that I'm safe from the abuse I used to suffer, even if I still struggle with PTSD
-that I have enough talent that I can make money from it, therefore doing a job I love
-that there's a way to write to a celebrity I admire who helps me through rough times
-that I live in a part of the States that caters most to the desires I have: ie extravagant amounts of nature (which also makes up for the lack of beach)
-that while I struggle with PTSD and borderline personality disorder, I have people who listen and care, and I'm managing it so well on my own
-that while I'm plateauing at the moment, I lost 50 of the 100 or so lbs I need to lose for my health
-that while I've dealt with bad things, my life was only endangered once
-that I've gotten away from the worst abuse in my life
-that I can still BE happy, even when sometimes I'm sad or depressed or apathetic, I can find a way past it and be happy again
AND ALSO FOOD AAAAAAAAAAA
*shoves all food in face*
