I'm Thankful For...

• This moment - sitting on my porch with a steaming cup of ginger tea (tisane) and typing this post!
• A patient life partner (the "DH" - dear hubby)
• A family that loves me intensely
• Mom, who taught me to be an independent woman
• Technology that makes my far-away friends seem not so far away
• Smart, efficient, creative, fun and kind co-workers
• Health
• Dancing (especially the Lindy Hop!)
• Every time someone chooses to walk, bicycle, carpool or take public transit instead of driving a car
• People who pick up their dog's poop from sidewalks, parks, other public places and especially my yard
• That the DH is a good cook
• Flowers
• Do-nothing days
• The wonderful blessing of working from home
• Times of clarity when I can put my ego (being right) aside and focus on being happy
• Chocolate, cheese, bread and tea
• Afternoon runs on sunny winter days
