Thankfulness

Ticket is getting spayed tomorrow. Good times. At least she'll be groggy & confused during Cards opening game & I'll be able to watch it without interruption! LOL But it is one more step towards her very important job. She, unfortunately, will not be a mother. I say that because I was having an instant messenger conversation with my husband the other day & he mentioned that we needed to get her spayed soon, though "she'd like to have puppies". I said, "she would?" And he responded, "I guess." I thought it funny. Later I asked him if they had talked about it! How do we ever know what a dog truly wants? Unless, of course, I am an animal psychic. Surprisingly, though, I am not. Oh, well.

I called this post thankfulness because I've been thinking lately about how thankful I am. I've suffered from depression for many years. Actually many more than I'm willing to admit and in that time I've spent a lot of time feeling sorry for myself and having a very negative attidute. Recently, through the help of some new medication and wonderful friends, I've started to emerge from that long term funk from which I've suffered. I've been very lucky in my life, despite my shortcomings and perceptions. I think back throughout my life and think back to so many people I've known who have made an impact in my life. I know how cheesy this must sound, but I've come a long way to be at this point.

Last night I went to an adult Easter Egg hunt. I won $100. I never win anything. It was awesome. I also won a kick-ass Budweiser hat and some Harrah's sunglasses. And some candy and other crap. It rules.

It is almost 11 and I need to get up early tomorrow to take Ticket to the vet. Don't have much else to say right now anyway....
