Happy Thanksgiving

Today I am Thankful For:

~Being married to the most amazing man on the planet.

~My wonderful, loving family, who have always supported me and been there for me, even as I am now 3k miles away.

~My husband's family, who have accepted me completely into their lives and who always make me feel warm and welcome.

~My friends, of whom I have too many to name, but they are in places both near and far. I feel blessed to be a part of so many lives.

~My little kitty, Romeo, who is, as I tell him everyday, the most beautiful, special, awesome, (keep going...I always do), cat in the whole world.

~My improving health. I am in better shape now, for the most part, than I was entering college. I feel more confident, I know I am more beautiful, and I love that my body is changing into a strong, powerful disease fighting weapon.

~My mental faculties.
***I'm a senior manager in public relations at a company that really treats me well and respects my knowledge.
***I'm finishing up my Masters in Critical & Creative Thinking, with a book proposal at the end of it that will propel me into a book deal that will change my life.
***I am co-editor of the wonderful magazine, Plum Ruby Review--and I say wonderful not because its my magazine, but because I feel so grateful to be working with so many incredibly talented writers and artists.
***My poetry has received recognition....with a nomination this year for the Pushcart. I feel such awe, amazement and a surge of gratefulness to the universe for giving me the chance to stand with the best writers of this year.

~The chance to live in a beautiful place--New England, which is second only the beautiful place I used to live in--the Pacific Northwest. I love being able to be part of such history, culture and culinary adventure.

~And you, dear readers, for letting me spout mush and gush and you still read it. :)
