Thankfully, Thursday

It's been quite awhile since I've blogged, and one of my resolutions for the new year is to get into regular blogging and really see what my little slice of the web can become.   And I promise I will update with a longer post this weekend when I have some time, but for now I wanted to post what I hope is to become a weekly entry: Thankfully, Thursday.   Each Thursday I will make a post with five things of which I am thankful.  So here goes.

1.  I am thankful for my dog, Mr. Hugo.  He is by far the best friend I could ever hope to have and is a constant source of comfort during the darkest days.  I love him so much my heart feels like it could burst! 

2.  I am thankful for my ability to draw.  I have not sketched in a really long time, and a few weeks ago I decided it was time to start again.  Here is a drawing I did of Hugo.

3.  I am thankful for both of my jobs.  I may not like them much at times, but they allow me  the ability to take care of myself without relying on someone else's help.

4.  I am thankful for books.  I love to read with an insane passion and don't know what I would do if I couldn't escape into a good book.

5.  I am thankful for my best friend, Sarah.  She has been there for me through some of the toughest times, and I know I can always call her for advice or a shoulder to cry on. 

See ya this weekend!
