A 365 day challenge to focus on being thankful.

Well, this is another skin of my teeth posting. I’m squeaking in just before midnight but I didn’t want day 2 to go by without posting my thankful challenge for the day. Plus, how silly would it be if I couldn’t even make it past day 2 of my self imposed challenge. Ha! That would not be good!

For day 2, I am so thankful for the people around me that build me up and keep me sane, a.k.a my support system. My Mom is at the very tippy top of that list but she deserves her very own day and I want to have a little more time to write about her. She will be “appearing” in a post all about her in the next few days.

I cannot name all the people in my support system, for fear of leaving someone out, but they know who they are. It’s the people I can go to with anything and they are ready to step up and help however they can and at a moment’s notice. It’s the people I may not see every day or we may not even live in the same town but whenever we see each other it’s like we have been together all along. It’s the people I can call or text and tell them anything and they do not judge or “throw shade”. (…do we still say that?) It’s the people who will come over in monsoon-like weather to let my dogs out…on multiple occasions. (I still owe you some flowers for that!) It’s the people who will bring me a meal just because they know I had a rotten day. It’s the people who check in on me even though they are going through a tough time themselves. It’s the people that humor me and aren’t afraid to keep our streaks alive with goofy photo filters on a certain social media app. Oh the lol’s I get from those pics. I could go on but hopefully you get the idea. These are the people in my support system.

My support system is filled with the people that truly make my life easier, help me maintain my sanity, and aren’t afraid to laugh with me when things just seem to go all sorts of crazy. Some I have know my whole life, or most of my life, and some I have only known in my adult life but I love you all! I am so thankful for you, my most fabulous support system.

Let me know how you would describe the people in your support system.

Stay tuned for Day 3!
