So thankful....

Well today is a very thankful day for me because it marks the 5th year anniversary of my car accident. Some people will think that it sure seems like a long time ago, but for me it just seems like yesterday. I feel like after this year, October 29 will just be another day for me. This is the first time I have actually worked on this day since then. I don't want it to be a big thing for me anymore. Okay now I know some of you might be thinking it is a big day for me because something very tragic happened on this day, but I think that I kind of need to move on from it. For those of you who know me pretty well, you know that I don't really care for the emotional stuff. If today is just another day in my book then it will take away some of the emotional feelings I feel on this day. Sadly enough I have already cried once this morning. Afterwards I thought that I shouldn't be sad, but happy that God granted me more time here on earth. Today my parents wanted to see me so they are taking me to lunch and dinner, but next year I will go about my everyday routine with no interruptions relating to my accident. This may all sound really weird to you guys so sorry about that. Okay so enough of that talk. I get to go to San Antonio this weekend and see my wonderful grandparents. I am so excited. I love to visit them. Time means more now because my grandad has prostate cancer. It is a cancer that will outlive him so they are not too worried about it. He did 40 some odd teatments of radiation and hopefully that will be enough for now. They will go in and recheck sometime soon. I love my grandparents so much and can't even stand the thought of losing them. I lost my grandmother 6 years ago and that was really tough. Other then the cancer thing, they are all in good health. So today I am very thankful for so many things in my life.
