Hello world —
Though I try to spend some time every day thinking about what I am grateful for, Thanksgiving Day is when I actually sit down and write out a list…previously in a journal and beginning last year in my blog…now with a link to Facebook…I just reread last year’s list…many things apply but it also showed me how life has moved on…one of the things I am thankful for as well…Here is today’s list…
My family and friends (always)
The beautiful fall weather
My mother’s good health and contentment with life

Max’s life in NY
Almost a year back at my current job and my smart, fun, committed co-workers
Yoga
Greek yogurt
Finding a diet that works and makes me feel better
A renewed interest in cooking
Using my Pentax K1000 again…digital is amazing, but I still love film
HBO
Netflix

All the books I’ve read or listened to in the past year and all the writers who wrote them

Trains, planes and automobiles
Travel over the past year — Bangkok, Hanoi, London, Ireland, NY, Carolina Beach, Boston, Baltimore, Charlotte….all fun.
