I am thankful for: the guys that love me

I have decided that each week I will write about at least one thing I am thankful for. That way when I am feeling blue I can look back on my list of things and smile.

Today I am thankful for my guy friends. I think that every girl should have at least one or two guys who she can call who will undoubtedly have her best interest at heart. Having wise platonic guy friends is invaluable. Today I went to church with my friends George and Phillip. We were able to talk about stuff, all kinds of stuff, with such refreshing honesty and candor. Phillip helps me to believe in love and reminds me that there are good guys out there. George always adds insightful comments to each conversation.

I came home and spoke to my old friend Kenny...love that guy. He is the guy that makes you feel beautiful no matter how crappy you are feeling or looking on any given day. Every girl needs one of those kind of friends in her life. We met in the summer of 1998, we have been through two wives and countless numbers of boyfriends, and a crapload of other junk together. We have fought like cats and dogs over the silliest things but we have remained friends through it all. I can't wait until he and his wife have a baby because he will make an AWESOME dad! I digress.

I called Kenny to get some advice about Mr. J, from a guy's perspective. He has the amazing ability to get my head out of the clouds without making me feel stupid or completely pessimistic. In other words he keeps it real with me because he loves and cares for me. He wants what is best for me. I know this. It is so good to know that there are guys who I can talk to without having to question their motives. How great is that?!

Since I probably don't say it enough:
TJ
Kenny
Frank
Ronald
Doug
Derek
Bernie
Larry
Phillip
George

I appreciate you. Thanks for being my friends. I don't want to think about what life would have been like without you.

love,

me
