hokiebird2.jpgA few days late, but I had a great Thanksgiving!! What made it great, let me count the ways:
1. I got to spend time with my family. Got to see my parents, my brother, sister-in-law, my nephew (he is getting bigger and smarter each time I see him), 2 aunts, an uncle, 2 cousins, 2 second cousins, and one cousin’s husband. Can never spend enough time with enough family. Ummm, well, at least during the holidays! (Just kidding of course!)
2. Got to wish Tone well before he heads to Iraq. He has to leave home on December 21, and will be in place on December 26. Could the government be a little more sensitive to anything important that time of the year? Christmas maybe? Anyway, here’s wishing good luck to Tone.
3. Dallas Cowboys won on Thanksgiving day! Yeah, not much to brag about there, as they’re only 4-7 this year. Wait, it is something to celebrate! The Cowboys won!
4. My Virginia Tech Hokies soundly defeated the over-rated in-state rival Virginia Cavaliers. We were predicted to finish anywhere from 6th to 8th in the ACC this year. And this weekend, we play Miami for the Championship. Funny thing, two Big East teams playing for the ACC Title! Outsiders Rule, huh? If we win, it’ll probably be off to the Sugar Bowl to play against Auburn! Either way, this weekend’s game will be a great one!
5. I got my payout from the refinance, and my credit cards are paid off! Things are still getting better! Now, it’ll be just time that’ll continue to heal my credit scores! Of course, there’s still that desire for new furniture… but I think that I’ll probably wait until the tax returns come in… maybe… I’m still not sure, I REALLY, REALLY want furniture.
6. I think that maybe, just maybe, the world isn’t too bad a place. And just wait… I’m thinking that it’ll get better, too!
