Thankful!!

I can't believe I haven't updated my blog in so long!!

I got settled into my new home in Florida... just in time to come back to AZ to work a 7-week contract. I extended my return ticket so that I could stay in town for Thanksgiving, but I go back to FL on Monday.

It was a whirlwind visit... and I didn't realize I'd be as busy as I was. I didn't get nearly enough time with family and my daughter is quite peeved as a result. But I'm thankful for every stolen moment I have with them and can't wait to have them out for a visit in December.

Two of my three brothers were there with their respective broods and it was nostalgic to have all the kids gathered at the 'kiddie table'... like we once were.

Carving the turkey with my mom, teasing my sister-in-law for braving Black Friday, bantering with GGma (who might possibly think I'm a lesbian), and generally enjoying what may be my last holiday in AZ for who knows how long...

I'm thankful to have a job that brought me back to AZ for this holiday. Thankful that my kids will both be out to visit in less than a month. Thankful that I have an adorable apartment just begging to be decorated for Christmas...

I'm excited for the prospects that are around the corner and though it's always hard to leave my ol' home, I'm thankful to be going to my new one.
