Monday's "I'm Thankful For..."

I'm getting so excited! Thanksgiving week has finally come! That means I only have three days of work this week! WohOO!! In light of this wonderful week which marks the beginning of the wonderful, festive Holiday season, I'm going to post each day something that I am thankful for.

For today's post, I am thankful for internet! Yes the internet. Do you remember the days before the internet? Think about how it has revolutionized the world we live in. I can compare how I learned and completed projects from the elementry and middle school years of using an encyclopedia and having to hand write your information to college of doing your research online and handing in your project via email. We went from having only the resources available in our school and community library to having access to information all over the world! Amazing!

And let's not forget how the internet has changed the world of communication! Oh my goodness. The internet has created a whole new resource for staying connected. Email, online chatting, facebook and the wonderful world of blogging! I thought facebook was amazing but Blogging, WOW! Can one say enough about blogging? It's like a scrapbook and journal put together that can actually be shared with friends and family instead of sitting on your shelf collecting dust. Blogging helps me stay connected with friends near and far. And sometimes at work I lack the human interaction sitting in my lonely office all day long, so I appreciate the entertainment and the human interaction (or at least the feeling of human intereaction) that I receive through the world of blogging and facebook. So thank you to all of you fellow bloggers that help me make through a work day!

Stay tuned for Tuesday's "I'm thankful for..."
