Breaking the cycle to reflect. Should do this more often

So here I am, sitting in my mom's office watching tv, waiting for my laundry to buzz so I can repeat the cycle of putting my clothes in the dryer, new load in the washer, push start, and wait some more.  Not to mention I am also waiting until my brother texts me so I can pick him and his drunk friends up from the bar.  I don't mind doing it because I know he would do it for me, which kind of brings me to the point of this post.  Thanksgiving just happened and I have been pondering what I am thankful for.  So I'll just list some stuff that have come to mind.

I'm thankful for:
My family - Although I don't really get along with them and I complain about coming home and kinda don't like being home, my parents raised me, my brother is always there for me, my aunt has shown me to be strong, and my extended family truly care about me and make me smile.  I'm thankful that they all got me this far, even though they drive me crazy

Cosmo, Kendra, and Piper and all the other "kids" in my life - These guys get me through a lot.  No matter what kind of day I'm having or how stressed I am they somehow know and make me feel so much better.  They don't judge me and I know that they will always love me.  Whether I need a snuggle from Kendra, a nuzzle from Cosmo, or a laugh from Piper, my life would never be the same without them.

My bed - I know I don't give it nearly enough attention, but it is always there for me and willing to snuggle.

John, Matt, and Kyle - I don't see them all the time but whenever we hang out we have a blast.  Seriously I can't stop laughing when I'm around them.  I consider these guys my brothers and I know that they are always going to be in my life, no matter how often we see each other.

My sorority sisters - Even though I'm not the happiest in regards to the politics happening in the chapter, these girls have legitimately changed my life and they continue to do so.  They have accepted me and they love me for who I am.  My college experience wouldn't have been the same without them.  I probably would not have discovered the person I am or have as much confidence.  I can't thank them enough for that.  I know I'm closer with some girls (Molly, Bre, Nichole, Laura, Jess, Pence, just to name a few) but they all have an influence on my life.

Paige, Taylor, and Erin - I probably wouldn't be here today without them.  They have brought me out of my darkest days and taught me how to see the light on my own, and when I lost it again they were there to hold it for me.  We've had our rough patches, and boy were they rough, but we've gotten past all those and it's made us stronger.  We have nothing to hide from each other and I would be lost without them.  These girls are my sisters and I love them to death.

Dana - She is seriously one of the best, if not the best, thing to happen to me.  I never seem to be able to get what I want, but I got her.  She makes me smile when I don't want to, makes me laugh when I want to cry and I feel like I have known her my entire life.  I've never felt the way I feel about her towards anyone else.  All I want to do is be with her and make her smile.  She calms me down when I'm upset or angry and she is always there for me.  She makes me so happy and I feel like the luckiest person in the world to have her.  On Sunday we will be dating for a month and already I want to tell her so many things.  But I think I'll just kiss her instead...for now

So that's all I can think about right now.  My laundry just buzzed, and now I'm off to repeat the cycle.  Although my dad just told me he took care of my laundry.  So now I have to go fix whatever he did.  Goodnight to all.  I still have 2 hours before I pick up the drunkards.
