This blog is a challenge given to five sisters. The challenge is to create a list every week of things that they are grateful for. The list may be in any form: words, drawing, photographs, song titles, etc; and must be posted here during the week. 52 weeks times 5 lists a week equals 260 lists.

Work, Transportation, Help
I was recently hired as a cook at Boondocks. I've worked a couple of shifts and am loving it so far. I cut my finger open within my first few minutes of work while cutting pizza dough, but it is turning out to be a really good experience.
This is my cousin, Jack. He's 3 years old and LOVES pirates. I have been babysitting him four days a week for three weeks now. I have loved getting to spend time with this little guy. He says the funniest things. I am not able to babysit him as often now that I am working at Boondocks, but I am still grateful for the chance to watch him.
Because of my job at Boondocks, I can now afford to insure my van. While the Purple People Eater (not really pictured here, this is just one like it), is not really a good car, I am really glad to be back out on the road. It's been over a year since I totaled the Civic and since then I haven't really driven much. Now I am able to get from place to place on my own.
Without my step-dad, Bill, I wouldn't even be able to drive my car. I probably wouldn't even know what was wrong with it. As it is, my van leaks steering fluid and whatever it is that needs to be fixed is way back in the car and not easily fixed. So Bill has been putting new fluid into my car every day so that I can get to and from work on my own. I really appreciate that.
