Thanks
Well, it honestly hasn't been a great year for me so far. But they say it helps to be thankful. I do have things to be thankful for.
I am thankful for my kitty, Baby Girl, who loves me in a way only a cat can love someone. You know the always wanting to sleep on your lap, and give you kisses, and sleep next to you at night and follow you around the house ways.
I am thankful for my family. My father is always there to talk to and rant about the vacancy of life and to despair about how everything sucks. There are others too, my sister and my niece.
I am thankful for the great friends I have. I haven't been a good friend to a lot of people this year. Thanks to Karen, and Sally and well I can't name everyone.
I am thankful for my job. I get to do what I enjoy, for the most part. I got changed to a different position so I won't have to listen to the police scanner anymore. I'll be doing regional stories, more feature type stories. I like those better, and my editor said I am better at doing them. The bad part is I got a pay cut due to the change, and well that sucks.
I am thankful for my apartment and my quirky landlord. I was able to move in with no deposit, and she has been good to me.
I got a new laptop, and was able to trade my old laptop with someone for a new desktop. So, I am thankful for those things too. Things of course don't really mean all that much.
I am thankful for my health. I am thankful my car hasn't died yet. I am thankful for my therapist, though I am still getting to know her. I am thankful for the good library here. I am thankful for the health food store here.
I am thankful I do have choices. I can look for a different job, I can look for a different place to live. I can make a lot of changes in my life. I don't really want to, though it seems at this point the job will need to change.
I feel like a black hole a lot. I try and be happier, I try and be more energetic, not to let things get to me or stress me out. But then I feel it all drain away from me and I am left with the apathetic, pessimistic person I am sure no one wants to spend time around. It is so much easier not too isn't it? To sleep, and to just hide from the world. That is what I have done too much this year.
