Overflowing….

I am thankful for crisp air and (more than enough)hot coffee…I am thankful that bigred slept all night after a not so great night with his foot situation–every day with Blaze is a day to be thankful for…I am thankful to have made it through a 4 class day yesterday and an easier day, today and I am thankful that so many people recognize how much they can benefit from a class like our peaceful yoga/Pilates mix and that Wendie came up and joined us for class….I am thankful that much of the grocery shopping is done (except all the produce and fresh items)…I am thankful Mitch is such an enormous help…I am thankful that the front yard is now filled with flowers and the inside of the house is clean (thank you, Fatima)…I am thankful to have caught another episode of Deepak Chopra on Dr. Oz (more about our biostats next week)…I am thankful for a great night’s sleep and waking up to texts from Jolene, with a great shot of Derek and a video of him playing with our grand-raccoon, Lulz…I am grateful for Nicole and Jolene in our boys lives and for having a 3rd son, Pete, whom I did not have to carry or give birth to 🙂   I am grateful to have an attitude of gratitude, for it reminds me daily that I have so much more than enough! I am thankful to all of you that are weighing in with your gratitude lists.  Please keep them coming.  They are especially appropriate this week, but any day is an appropriate day to share your gratitude!

Please stay extra aware when driving today, tomorrow and all weekend.  It is not just the eating and drinking that gets crazy this time of year.  From now till the new year, drivers are not only drinking more, but often so distracted too much to do in to little time.  Be extra careful…please.

For those that might not have a chance to check in tomorrow, wishing you a beautiful holiday filled with great food and drink, loved ones and above all,  gratitude.  Much love to you…..
