I'm thankful for and grateful more than ever before for all the little things, from materialistic to nonmaterial items, there's no doubt I will miss them all:
The food I am able to eat and enjoy everyday.
The comfortable bed and room that I sleep in.
My electronic toothbrush.
Clean undies and clothes to put on my back.
Some makeup and hair products to make myself more presentable each day.
My cell phone that I can call or text anybody I'd like from whenever I'd like to.
Computer and internet access regularly.
Television shows and countless movies to watch.
Music to listen to whether from the radio or ipod.
Being able to type to write instead of using an actual pen or pencil.
Drinking hot green tea when I'm cold.
Eating whatever random items I crave.
Painting my nails different colors when I'm bored.
Taking walks or going for jogs at the park.
Coming home to my dog.
Watching the sunset outside.
The smile on family and friend's faces when they enjoy my cooking.
Spending time doing anything with friends.
Traveling to new and exciting and beautiful places.
Spending holidays with loved ones.
Playtex Gentle tampons as opposed to whatever they will give me in prison.
Finding quotes or corny jokes online.
Watching television before I fall asleep.
Drinking a glass of wine with dinner after a long day at work.
Eating late night snacks with friends.
Skiing, swimming, shooting ranges, tennis, basketball, poker, ice skating, rockband, clamming.
My blingin' ass jewelry especially my big blingin' rings.
Dates, relationships, meeting new people, crushes, stupid boy drama.
Watching old home videos or looking at pictures.
Useless time on facebook seeing what's going on with people and playing computer games.
Picking up and skimming through countless books at Borders.
Planning activities with friends.
Laughing and goofing off about almost anything.
Spontaneous road trips.
Comforting hugs and smiles with loved ones.
Seeing or talking to friends and family on a regular basis.
Having my dog follow me around the house everywhere and sitting on my lap falling asleep.
Showering in a private area, having two towels- one for hair one for body.
Hair products, razors, tweezers, nail files, scented body lotion, facial lotion.
Eating out, cooking in.
Playing piano when I feel like it.
I could go on and on with this list. I'm good with going back to the basics though. I still have what's most important in life and that is what I am MOST grateful for: Love and support from family and friends, health, life, a past, present and future, strength and hope, basic essentials to survive, three visitation days a week and communication via mail, a reason to smile.
