Hey, Thanks

I am thankful that in this world where many have little or not quite enough, I have plenty. That means great family and friends, their love and support, good health, food on our table, opportunity, education, and on and on! Nathan and I are driving to Portland tomorrow morning to spend Thanksgiving with my former roommate and pal Vinnie. If all works out on Friday I may also briefly see my uncle and an SAIC friend. And in just three weeks, we will be back home in Iowa. Life's pretty good, right?  (Thanks to all of you that make it that way.)




For what are you thankful this year?

....trees, fresh air, picturesque views, living near the water, colour, literacy, literature,  a new president, laughter, compassion, art, puppies, community, hope, saving the whales, heart-breaking/warming film, irony,  design, home, generosity, paying it forward, music,  spirit, passion, warm sun, rain, strength, dancing, medicine, technology, light, sight, hugs, and love love love.....

Happy Thanksgiving! I hope you guys had a great trip and were able to enjoy all the blessings of good food, friends, and family.

We have so much to be thankful for, don't we? A few of my favorites are my precious husband and son, wonderful family and friends who always provide love and support - and lots of good times. :)
