so thankful

considering tomorrow is thanksgiving
and i've never really spoken up about what i'm thankful for...
i guess i can express that now.

i'm thankful for my family.
they're my heart and soul.
they're crazy, and i love it. it makes my life interesting.
and i have great stories to tell co-workers! :P
they're one reason why i can get up everyday and be happy.
i'm thankful for chris
he's my life. he's my everything. he's my chesapeake bays.
he brings out the best in me,
even when i don't believe in myself.
i'm thankful for my puppy, charlee.
she's really naughty sometimes, but her silliness and cute little face can make me smile even when i'm not in a great mood!
i'm thankful for my new job.
i have great co-workers that are so much fun.
i work in an environment that's relaxed. compared to my old job.

i'm so thankful for everyone who's touched my life, in a major way or in a small way.
i'm the kind of person who appreciates a smile.
a stranger opening a door for me. a friendly hello while walking pass someone.
a nice compliment about anything in general.

i'm just trying to say that
i'm thankful for the life i have, even though sometimes it gets hard or stressful there's always something to be grateful for. big or small.
there's always someone or something there as a sign that life isn't so bad.
tomorrow is a new day to be thankful for.

project bling #67

as everyone will soon learn...
i l♥ve everything with bling! it can be shiny or sparkling, too!
i just LOVE it all!

i also collect victoria's secret mini dogsand i decided to put two things i love together...
bling and mini dogs! here are some pictures for your viewing pleasure!

i officially finished the bling dog on 15 november 11!
in the pictures you can see
i used a toothpick as a tool to place my rhinestones on the dog.
it surprisingly was a wayyy better tool than tweezers!
i used 3mm rhinestones... they were sooo small, i almost lost my mind!
i used aleene's jewel it glue to stick those suckers on there.
works really well!
and the pictures are also in the order of my progress! come back again and check out more project blings!
