- to be loved for who i am and what i'm not. nicole schaeffer makes my heart feel whole, my knees weak, and my stomach flutter. she is the sweetest, truest, most genuine love i've ever known. to be thankful is an understatement.
- for a mom and dad that are supportive personally and professionally. i'm lucky.
- for a brother that looks out for me, who grew to be bigger than me, and now looks older than me.
- for the rest of my family for the love, support, laughter, and tears.
- for a thriving business that gives me a thrill each and every day.
- for a business partner who is also a best friend - we just get it. don't ask.
- to be driving my truck - it's a beast (don't tell me otherwise).
- for each and every apple product that has landed in my hands, lap, desk etc over the last few years. you are loved, appreciated, and obsessed over often.
- to be jake's mom. i love him more than words. sweetest fella ever.
- for my ability to play guitar and be as creative as need be within the confines of my guitar room.
- to own a second car for sunny days. having the wrangler for the last few years has been one of the greatest joys.
- for gummy vitamins that i look forward to everyday. and my health.
- for friends both near and far - there are a select few that make me smile often.
- to have the freedom that owning a business provides. (could be 30 days of thankful alone).
- for the gym. hoping that this time around we don't fall out of lust.
- for my o.c.d. and anxiety - while often a pain in the ass, it makes me who i am (largely).
- for my home and who i share it with.
- for hoodies - it's cold as shit outside.
- for toms. the keep me looking hip, with a cause, and their start up story inspires.
- for iTunes and new music tuesdays. i love music and the instantaneous tap of a button on my phones brings me the latest and greatest every week.
- for cookies because they are delicious even though i can't have them as often since they present a residual weight problem.
- for coffee. the keurig at home or work, starbucks, mcdonalds, racetrac, etc coffee is a beautiful thing with equally beautiful effects.
- for beer and the variety in which it exists.
- for books and my love of the written word.
- to the makers of benedryl. that handsome pink pill keeps my chronic hives at bay.
- to the real estate industry. while i pride myself on non-traditional RE, you have shown this scientist that there is more to being a professional than chemicals, muscles in a lab, and biomechanics.
- for marlow's tavern and the perfect that is their menu (and staff) at the avenue.
- for email and texting for i pretty much despise talking on the telephone.
- for second chances. i got it so perfect this time around.
- for life. and all that it holds for me, and her, and us, and them. it is a beautiful ride.
