I'm thankful I wasn't near a crash so close to my home. A family lost their daughter, mother, wife. Our airforce base lost one of our own.
Jeopardy??????
"I'm thankful for happy crying and sad laughter." .... very profound.
Have fun pacing in St.Pete! Angelia and our friend Jessica will both be running it. It'll be Angelia's first half-mary!
I'm thankful for posts like this that remind me to be thankful!! :-)
I am thankful for others who fly their nerd/dork/geek flags high. Hell yes Jeopardy and LOTR! Speaking of which, thought you'd enjoy this: http://www.runningroundreno.com/2011/01/running-dork-tattoo.html
You know you're a big emotional mess when posts like this make you cry. Love you Boo!

Great list... you have a lot to be thankful for!
I'm thankful for a hard working and fun loving husband.
I'm thankful for wonderful parents who are friends and role models.
Happy weekend!
“I’m thankful for my running family because they just get me” --I can totaly relate to this one! Thank goodness we crazy runners have each other. Love the list, lady. You DO have a lot to be thankful for!
I'm thankful for having a job i love, with plenty of vacation days so i can go hang out with you on the beach today and do an open water swim.
Body Glide.
I'm thankful for a lot of these things too, but maybe most, every race I've ever been part of. Even the ones that hurt like a sonofabitch and maybe I whined about at the time and wish I'd had the wisdom not to. Of things not on your list, so much. I'm so blessed by a beautiful life that no one would ever deserve and I try so hard to accept with grace and not questions. It's a good life.
