12 - Thankful to cross off a few things from my work to-do list. Today was rough. #monday

8 - Thankful for a good workout (spinning) with good people - it re-energized me and took away the negativity of the work day.

9 - Thankful for Friday - it was a long week.

10 - Thankful to do nothing but lay in bed with Michael alternating watching The Wire and sleeping. (Being hungover made me extra thankful for this.)

11 - Today I am thankful that the house was already sort of clean because I can’t bear to clean anymore. 

5- Thankful for that extra delicious hour in bed before work. And thankful for 75 degree indian-summer air on my way home later that night….

6- Thankful Obama won.

7- Thankful to wake up and have breakfast with my boo (and a free ride to Bart!).

I don’t normally participate in “internet challenges” but this one I want to do. Making up for four days here:

1 - I’m thankful my husband is into setting goals (and managing our finances). He is my hero.

2 - I’m thankful to live in the beautiful state of California, where we get 70-degree hike-worthy days in November. Standing on top of a cliff looking over a blue sky, crashing waves, and awe-inspiring rocks makes for a good Saturday.

3 - I am thankful for talks with my sister. And that she and her boyfriend are having a great year.

4 - I am thankful to live across the street from my church, thereby removing any excuse I could come up with to not go. Plus - walking makes me happy.

Creating our wedding photo book has had me reliving our beautiful day. Here are a just a few of my favorites - by Kati Greaney Photography, katigreaneyphotography.com.

Do you ever get nostalgic for time periods you’ve lived through? This song takes me back to a TIME that I feel cannot happen exactly the same way ever again. And this is (one reason) why music is important.
