Month of Thanks -- Year FIVE! (what the...?)

What the heck?

I've been blogging (off and on) 

for five years!?! 

Pretty crazy. 

Well, as anyone who has read my blog knows

(Does anyone still read it?)

 the month of November is the lovingly called

The Month of Thanks.

This is when I try to post everyday about something I am thankful for.

(I say say try because, well you all know too well, I'm not perfect.)

It's a way for me to get into the Thanksgiving spirit and work on my attitude of gratitude.

This year has been a tough one but I have SO much to be thankful for so 

here goes...

Month of Thanks -- Day One

Today I am thankful for 

health.

Not that I'm in the best health of my life, 

but my family (Lee and the kids) and I have been blessed with relatively good health.

I keep hearing about families having to deal with stomach flu and strep throat all the time (or even worse) and it makes me even more thankful that we haven't had that trial.  

(knock on wood!)

I'm also thankful for doctors and medical personnel that have worked so hard in taking care of my loved ones. To respect privacy,  I'm not mentioning names but 

I AM SO THANKFUL 

for medical advances and medical personnel (and loving and supportive family members) that make it possible for my loved ones to be well again!  

So, today,
I'm thankful for health.
