Gratitude
A feeling of appreciation or thanks;
Readiness to show appreciation for and to return kindness
~ Merriam-Webster

I am abundantly blessed and so very grateful for the life I’ve been given and for my passion for living each day to its fullest. Life is pretty darn good and I try to enjoy every single moment I’m gifted with while living on this magnificent earth. Thanksgiving brings our family together, and I can’t wait until later today when everyone starts arriving!

On this Thanksgiving Eve, I’ll pause from cooking, baking, and race packet pick-up to express my gratitude for…

  • Family – my mom (RIP Dad), husband, sons, and siblings
  • Extended family – our daughter-in-law has brought an entirely new family into our lives, including new friendships
  • Friends
  • USA
  • Military – I am so very grateful to our military for their role in protecting our country, and allowing us the freedoms we enjoy.
  • Good health
  • My dermatologist
  • Changing seasons
  • Our home
  • Crazing running friends willing to get up at zero dark thirty to fit in a run
  • My two amigas who join me for late morning runs when I need to catch up on my sleep
  • Church
  • Our back yard
  • Mint chocolate chip ice cream
  • My clients
  • Flowers
  • Salads
  • Interstate highways and curvy mountain roads
  • Funny cat and dog videos
  • Vacations
  • Friday evening happy hour
  • College football
  • The internet
