Today I am grateful for . . .

Sleeping in.
Hilarious party games with family I only get to see once or twice a year.
Winning some games.
Losing some games.
The love of a small dog named Heidi.
My amazing husband.
Good food.
Sleeping in the same bed as my husband after fourteen days of not.
Corey's mom and dad.
Corey's extended family.
Our dear friend Adam.
New opportunities at work.
Making Corey's ninety-year old Grandma laugh.
The new battery John got me for my Powerbook.
My "team" from ACT XI, my i-impact training class.
My mom and my dad.
My brother Brian and my brother John.
A holiday that invites us to get together with each other in the spirit of love and gratitude.
The opportunity for Corey and I to ruthlessly pick on our seventeen-year old niece's new boyfriend (he handled it well, though).
A long drive with a good audiobook.
An hour of gridlocked traffic that gave me the opportunity to catch up with my brother Brian.
New levels of understanding and a deepening of the love Corey and I have with each other.
My cousin Julie, who is pregnant!
A thoughtful email from a friend.
Galaga. On our TV!

and . . .

wait for it . . .

Really good cole slaw. You gotta give it to those Pennsylvania Dutch women. They know how to make a good slaw.

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone. My hopes and wishes to you and yours for another year of things for which to be grateful.
