April 8: National All Is Ours Day

National All Is Ours Day is a day to reflect and appreciate everything you have. It is a day to be thankful.

I'm thankful for a lot because I know exactly how lucky I am.

I have a great family. And amazing friends.

I have a college degree.

I FREAKIN' WORKED AT DISNEYLAND. Seriously, some days were absolutely crazy but I loved every chaotic moment of it. I will forever be thankful for those 5 months and the amazing people I met.

I have a job.

I have a safe and warm place to sleep.

I have enough food to eat. I've never had to worry about when my next meal will be.

I own and operate my own online business.

I can read. So many people don't get the opportunity to go to school. Many more can not even read. It's a privilege I believe many take for granted.

I've had the opportunity to travel a lot. I've ridden elephants in Thailand. I've walked on the Great Wall of China. I've swam with sharks and stingrays in the Caribbean. And I've even ogled the cute lederhosen-clad young men in Austria! (Seriously - Austrian young men wearing lederhosen are SO attractive!)

I lost a dear friend of mine one and a half years ago. I've woken up every morning since then thankful for my life and all I have.

And tonight I'm thankful for the bottle of vodka, Kahlua, and Bailey's Irish Cream I have sitting on my counter. And I'm thankful that two of my good friends will be joining me for Frozen Mudslides this evening. Just keepin' it real!

So leave a comment! What are you thankful for? I am thankful for people who leave comments (hint!) You can even leave one anonymously if you would like to.
