thankful

in the spirit of the season, some things to be thankful for:

• new baby nieces
• friends who are always willing to lend an ear
• being with family for the holidays (both major holidays this year!)
• long weekends!
• cheesy potatoes (i'm sure this was on my list last year, but it's darn good!)
• dinner parties
• soccer coming back to the bay area
• some respite from the office workload (we have a new hire starting monday)
• gorgeous fall colors
• the brisk, smoky smell of autumn air
• friendly neighborhood kitties
• fruit baskets
• clean laundry

...and for all of the love and friendships that i am lucky to have in my life.

happy thanksgiving, everyone.
