Getting Thankful

It is one of my favorite times of year. I love the fall with all of it's colors and gorgeous scenery and I love the spirit of Thanksgiving. I try to sit back and be thankful at least a little bit each day, but this time of year, people tend to kick it into high gear and really think about all of the wonderful things in their lives. I thought maybe I'd take a second to list off some things I'm thankful for:

Epiphanies
Having people in my life like Jess, Al, Maple, Harvest and Paul
Steady employment
At least one more holiday with my family complete
My baby sister being home
My amazing dogs who snuggle the bejesus out of me every night
My horses who stay fat and happy and are now all fuzzy and snuggly
Caroline, her incredible perspective on life and the healing sense of her homestead
Working with people I enjoy and can laugh with
Parents who are incredibly patient and forgiving
Family who loves and accepts me for who I am
Being loved and understood by someone at such a deep level
Loving and understanding someone at such a deep level
Fitting in with a group of people and a family
Health
Time to write
Horseshoe nails and tail braids
Good students (there are a few!)
Old students who come to visit or text me all the time
Feeling good about myself

And many, many more things as well, but I've officially run out of time. The kids are coming up from the cafeteria and I need to go be a responsible teacher-type person.

Happy Thanksgiving All!
