Rosie and her 20's
I hope everyone had a fantastic Thanksgiving! I am traveling this week and unable to post a lot, so I thought I’d link back to some old posts I still love for you to check out while I’m gone! 🙂 If you have a post you want to share, feel free to drop it in the comments!
To all who are on WordPress today –
Happy Thanksgiving! I am forever grateful for anyone who is reading this right now or for anyone who has read my blog ever.
I have changed and grown over the past two years, much of which I was able to cope with because of this community. Because sometimes I complained about boys and you guys related. Because sometimes I was completely lost and you guys gave me advice. Because sometimes I reached awesome goals and you guys congratulated me.
I am thankful for all of you and hope you have the best Thanksgiving and holiday weekend!
xoxo

Although summer is without a doubt my favorite season, fall has its perks too! We all need a little reminder sometimes, when the temperatures drop and the free time disappears, that fall can be just as great as summer 🙂 Here are 10 reasons why fall is so awesome:
1.The Christmas freaks
Do not play Christmas songs in October and hang your lights up in November when the holiday is in December!!
2. Snow
And cold weather. THE WORST.
3. Too much food.
Like Christmas time is just a month of getting fat. At least on Thanksgiving it’s only for a day.
4. Greed
Basically we all demand presents for no reason.
5. Shopping
I hate shopping in general. There are so many people at the malls and it’s so stressful.
6. The exclusivity
It’s like the only holiday that matters apparently…
7. The music
Idk there are only like 3 Christmas songs I can name that don’t suck.
8. Too much family time
Spending time with family is nice…for a little while…
9. Taking down the decorations
They’re everywhere!! And then you have to take the lights down in the cold and snow!! ugh.
10. When it’s over
All the holly jolly goes away and we all go back to being mean to each other because we’re not in the “Christmas spirit” anymore.
Even in the darkest times, there is one small thing to be grateful for. Even if it’s just because you’re breathing today. Even if it’s just because you know your mom has dinner waiting for you. Every day you can find tiny things to be thankful for that will make your day better as a whole. Here are some little things to be thankful for and to remember this Thanksgiving.
1. Your job
Even if you hate it, it’s giving you a way to live and could potentially be opening doors for you in the future.
2. Your family
Whoever you consider your family to be, whether it’s your best friends or blood relatives – they’re always by your side.
3. Your pets!
(If you don’t have a pet, I’m sorry) but from goldfish to ferrets to dogs and cats – these animals are always so excited to have you home.
4. You’re breathing
Yeah, our health can get real sucky sometimes. But we’re here and that’s all that matters for now.
5. The opportunity to learn
Whether you’re in school or just googling questions to gain some knowledge – the opportunity to learn is always at our fingertips.
And while there are many things I could say I’m thankful for, these top 5 are humble reminders to not live with such high expectations that we always consider life a disappointment.
It may sound weird to you, but Halloween has always been my favorite holiday. Here’s why:
1.You can be whatever you want
It’s the one day a year you can dress up as someone else, forget about who you are for a while, and not be judged for it.
2. It’s a holiday for all ages
When Christmas comes around, I don’t have butterflies in my stomach anymore while waiting for Santa. I may not be Trick or Treating anymore, but I’m still dressing up for Halloween!
3. There are countless fun fall activities leading up to Halloween.
Pumpkin picking, pumpkin carving, apple picking, jumping in piles of leaves, etc. So. much. fun.
4. It’s a kick off to the best holidays of the year!
First you’re celebrating Halloween, and then Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Years are around the corner.
5. Halloween movies are the best movies.
13 Nights of Halloween > 25 Days of Christmas.
6. Halloween has a different vibe than any other holiday.
It’s scary! There’s no forced family time and the pressure to be filled with the heartwarming holiday spirit. It’s goofy, odd, and enjoyable – no pressure.
7. Candy.
Enough said.
