In the Spirit of the Weekend...

'Tis the season to write a sappy list of the things for which I am thankful. Yes, it's cliche. But it's all true.

I am thankful for (not comprehensive):

• Entenmann's Cheese Filled Crumb Coffee Cake
  
• Coffee
  
• Hydrangeas
  
• Healthy, thriving children
  
• Healthy, loving husband
  
• Strawberry yogurt
  
• Internet shopping (saving me from the crazed masses in the stores)
  
• Wet dog noses
  
• Friends
  
• A job at which I continue to learn new things, even if the politics sometimes annoy me
  
• Peonies
  
• Perspective (about some things, anyway)
  
• Sand between my toes
  
• Weather
  
• Belly kisses
  
• A roof over our heads that is not too big, not too small - it's just right.
  
• Ice cream
  
• Wooden knitting needles
  
• Sappy Christmas music
  

I readily admit that I have a good life. I am lucky in so many respects.
