A Few Things for Which I’m Thankful
I just wanted to take a minute to wish you and yours a very Happy Thanksgiving!
What follows a quick rundown of some of the things for which I’m thankful. Honestly, life is good and I could go on and on, so… For now I’ll just hit the big ones:
1. My wife
2. Our kids
3. Extended family (mainly parents/siblings)
4. General good health (but see #7…)
5. A roof over our heads (and a nice one, at that)
6. A great, stable job
7. Antibiotics (seriously)
I hope you’re having a relaxing and fulfilling holiday.
(And to those of you outside of the United States, Happy Thursday.)
