Saturday Sixteen

My brother checked out my blog and made fun of me for being such a slacker. I'm trying to do better, but I'm a busy girl. I was so planning on posting on Thursday because I wanted to do a Thursday Thirteen like some of my friends do. Guess what... I forgot. Thursday totally came and went. So today I'm going to be creative and do a Saturday Sixteen post. Hopefully next week I'll remember to post on Thursday.

Without any further adieu... Saturday Sixteen.

Sixteen Things which I am Thankful for...
(in no particular order)

1. I'm thankful for my Jesus. Without Him there would be nothing to be thankful for. There would be nothing to live for. There would be nothing... nothing at all.
2. Obviously I'm thankful for my family and friends. They raise me up when I'm feeling down. They give me a shoulder to cry on. They make me laugh so hard I almost pee in my pants. I love them so dearly, I don't know what I would do without them.
3. I'm thankful for TV episodes online. I LOVE Big Brother and One Tree Hill. I'm so thankful I can catch up on episodes I've missed online so I can stay up to date on what's going on.
4. I'm thankful for TV on DVD. I have all 10 seasons of Friends on DVD and the first season of One Tree Hill. I didn't start watching One Tree Hill until this season (season 5) so I have a lot of catching up to do. I also love the fact there are no commercials.
5. I'm thankful for Saturdays I don't have to work. I LOVE sleeping late. I'm a happy girl when I can sleep past 10 in the morning.
6. I'm thankful for wireless internet. I remember having dialup and only being able to be online for 20 to 30 minutes at a time. I wasn't supposed to stay on longer than a certain amount of time, but I always stayed on later. I also remember getting cable internet and having the cords running all over the house. I love not being restricted to a certain area with my laptop.
7. I'm thankful for my digital camera. I LOVE taking pictures wherever I go. They capture so many memories.
8. I'm thankful for toilet paper. Wouldn't you hate having to use leaves? I'm so thankful for that two-ply roll.
9. I'm thankful for my flip flops. They're easy to just slip on and you're out the door. I'm South Carolina they can be worn year-round and I love that!
10. I'm thankful for Anderson University. If I wouldn't have gotten accepted there, I never would have met some of the best friends ever. I thank God every day for sending me to school there.
11. I'm thankful for cell phones and cable telephone. If I lived in the time before cell phones and unlimited nationwide calling, I'd never be able to keep in contact with my friends.
12. I'm thankful for music. Ever since I was born, music has been a vital part of my life. My momma has been singing to me since I was in the womb. Music is so inspirational.
13. I'm thankful for service people: policemen, firemen, doctors, soldiers. Ever since I was robbed, I've become even more thankful for those people who work to keep us safe. I'm so glad they're there for us.
14. I'm thankful for Reeces Pieces. Peanut butter in a hard, crunchy shell. Enough said.
15. I'm thankful for my church. They're my family. They're there for you when you need them and love you no matter what.
16. I'm thankful for memories. I miss my grandparents and friends from the past, but thankfully the memories are there to help keep the people there with you.

So here's my first ever Saturday Sixteen. I hope you enjoy. I'm thankful for you.

By His Grace.
