Miss Elaneous Musings

2009 has been an interesting year to say the least.

A. I am thankful for Sara.

Without her, I would go insane. I love you.

B. I am thankful for my family.

Not just the people I live with mind you, but those who keep in touch all the time, including the ones I rediscovered through Facebook. Sometimes they frustrate me; but that’s just how life goes.  But, other times, it’s a total blessing and I am thankful for them. I love you Tod, Paula, Mikey, Moni, Melissa, and Cory!  I am also thankful for my niece Brandy for keeping me entertained with her trials and tribulations. lol.

C. I am thankful for my friends.

Not just my real life friends, but even some of my online pals who I’ve never met in person.  Jarly is really the only one I socialize with in person any more. I miss hanging out with Mike. I have no idea where he’s been.  But, my online pals are just as important to me; like Larry, Tim, Monte, Susan, Helen, Mandy, Ed, and Gale. Even Dana (aka Fink).  I adore you all.

C. I am thankful for Facebook.

I joined facebook. This allowed me to find some of my old college friends that I haven’t heard from since I graduated in 1992.  Shout outs to Tony, Allen, Gary and Andy! Can I get a “schwimmenfische and nudenfladt”?  Also, through a fluke, I rediscovered my cousin Jessi on facebook which has allowed me to reconnect with someone from my early childhood.  She’s also pretty dorky like me which is good. lol.

D. I am thankful for the internet.

Yeah, that’s right; the internet.  It’s my primary outlet into the world since I am disabled and home bound.  It’s let me connect with my family outside my home, meet really great friends online, allow me to absorb information and educate myself; and even play Shot-Online.

Things could be worse.  I am thankful that they are not.

Au revoir mon amie.
