12 things I want to be thankful for

Posted by Karoli in asides November 22nd, 2007

I know…late post. But even as I’m grateful for what is today, I have a list of things I really want to be grateful for tomorrow. Some are weighty; others fanciful. Still, by next year, I’d love to see them happen.

  1. Leftover turkey
  2. An end to obnoxious spammers
  3. A house that is not overcrowded
  4. A weekend without football
  5. A vacation without kids
  6. A cell phone with all of the features I want
  7. Hormonal balance and a return to my former size 8 self
  8. Full public exoneration of Julie Amero with an apology
  9. Full withdrawal of all of our troops in Iran and Afghanistan
  10. Accessible affordable health insurance available to everyone
  11. An end to US threats toward Iran
  12. An election outcome that brings realism and honesty into the office. (I told you there were some fanciful hopes)

I am thankful for what I have today, but that doesn’t stop me for hoping for a better tomorrow.

What do you hope for?

    A weekend without football? You mean, actually *going* to games? I can’t count how many we’ve watched since Wednesday and The Youngest is on his way to watch Georgia v. Georgia Tech this minute. :)

    LOL, I wasn’t actually thinking about ‘going’ to games as much as doing something entirely different without so much as a peep at a TV or a football. It seems like there’s more and more with every passing day. Ugggg.
