Surviving the White Death

As this icy, flaky, horrible stuff falls from the sky, I reflect on the things I am thankful for this week:

• Space heaters
• A good pair of boots
• New tires
• Fingerless gloves for typing
• Hot tea

Christmas

Yes, I did take my camera and have pictures -- I just finally sorted through and put a few up in a web album:
Consiglio Christmas 2008

Light at the end of the tunnel

I'm still wishing I was healthy again. In the meantime, I have recently been thankful for:

• Cough syrup and cough drops
• A place where I can play soccer with women like me who like to have fun and NOT kill each other
• A family that enjoys playing games and laughing
• Movies that make me laugh

Post-Holiday Thanks

• Health (It's so easy to forget until you get sick)
• Sleep (Again, easily taken for granted)

I'll think of more things when I've gotten more of the two already listed.

Staying Warm

Things that I am thankful for during a freezing weekend:

• Videogames
• Homemade vegetable soup
• Space heaters
• Blankets
• Cats who sit on your lap

The health factor

Three more things I am thankful for:

• Working eyes and hands so I can do my job
• Working knees and ankles so I can still play soccer
• The fact that I haven't had to deal with the flu this year

New Theme attempt

Every week I will try to list at least three things I am happy or grateful for. So far:

• Dark chocolate
• An awesome, loving, supportive husband
• A boss who believes in me
