Day 8: I ate and then I ate some more

Happy Turkey Day, people! Thanks for reading my blog, even on a holiday of gluttony and stuffery.

So, I ate. And I ate some more. I broke a lot of rules today, exception being coffee. Which is fine. I had all the basic things you could imagine at a Thanksgiving table...and then some.

• turkey
• gravy
• 3 types of stuffing
• 1/2 coke
• hot chocolate with whipped cream
• steak
• ham
• green bean casserole
• 2 croissants
• 1 tortilla
• mixed veggies
• 2 large yam slices
• 2 baked potato with mashed potato inside
• spinach dip
• broccoli
• pineapple chunks
• 2 bread roles with butter and marmalade

I feel stuffed. Like my stomach is nearing my throat. Ugh....I did not do any exercise today.

I am very blessed. I am thankful for the blessings I have in my life. Namely my partner who makes me feel warm and fuzzy inside -- especially when it's cold outside. I am thankful for family and friends. I am thankful for my dogs. I am thankful for the roof over my head, the clothes on my back, the experiences I've had (particularly the good ones!), the conversations I enjoyed today, the feeling of being loved and welcomed wherever I went today. These are but a few of the amazing gifts I can think of...I am relieved my home was not broken into (I live in a scary neighborhood) and I am thankful that we made it home safely (lots of angry drivers, possibly drunks on the road today).

I hope you had a wonderful day. I hope you were greatly blessed.

Peace, love, hope,

Jennifer
