It's OK 7/26 and Thankful Thursday

It's okay that I finally got the giant crack in my windshield fixed.  For free.  By the guys who like to hang out at the gas stations on base.


Monday, after many offers of "Can I take a look at that?  It'll only take a minute!", I finally let them fix it.

They seemed so happy to fix it.  Made me feel like I was doing my part and all.

It's okay that the Anchorage Daily News is dumb.

The Anchorage Daily News screwed up their own ad, in their own paper. 

It's okay that Debra Morgan is my hero.

It's okay that I laughed and cried my way through this.  Really.  Tears of laughter and sadness at the same time.

It's okay that we've all got the same struggles.

I'm starting to depress myself.  Maybe I'll go buy some Oreos.

Perhaps, Jason, perhaps.


Thankfulness today?  Well, let's just say that I'm "thankful" I'm so committed to this link-up at The Ramblings of Mrs. Hargraves because, while I have everything in the world to be thankful for, I'm really working hard at dredging some stuff up this week.*

I'm thankful I've got 2 more weeks to sit here and dread the start of school.  Because I'm thankful I have a job to go to.  I'm thankful that the Turbokick instructors have been letting me lead a bit.  It's like student-teaching and is improving my confidence.  I'm thankful I'm finally seeing some of those awesome "cut" marks on my abs.  Six-pack, I'm coming for you.  I'm thankful that my purse has arrived.  Very speedy, Macy's, very speedy.
Oh, and I'm thankful for ice cream.  I bought some yesterday for the first time in weeks.  I'm not sure how I stayed away from it for so long.

Well, except for the Dairy Queen and Coldstone I had last week.

*If you're new here (Hi!), my husband is currently deployed to Afghanistan.  And I'm bored and lonely in Alaska.
