With Thanksgiving only one week away, it's time to reflect on the things we're thankful for. Family, friends, turkey, pumpkin pie...there are so many things, big and small, to appreciate now and always! So join me in being thankful this week!
I feel thankful...
....for amazing runs, that have nothing to do with distance, speed or time. Last weekend, I got in a few pre-wedding miles along the beach in Cape May, NJ. I was so distracted by the amazing views of the sunrise and the ocean that I didn't pay attention to my pace or distance. Perfect start to a perfect day!
...that I do something that makes me happy. Everyday I meet or hear about people who are miserable in their careers. I hear "I hate my job" and I immediately think (and often say) "so quit!". I know it's not as simple as that, but then again...why isn't it that simple? It's cheesy but very true, life is just too short. Do what makes you happy, both in your career and your hobbies.
...that my family has always encouraged me and allowed me to do what makes me happy. I definitely could not have achieved what I have so far without them and I'm thankful everyday for it.
...for my nephew baby. He's growing very quickly and I can't wait to hug him next week (hope my SIL is ready for a belly squeeze!). I'll be hanging out with him on Thanksgiving and then again for a BABY SHOWER on Saturday! Woo!
...that Rocky is back home, drooling and snoring as usual. I think he's thankful he's back too.
Happy Thursday, everyone! Now tell me...what are you feeling thankful for today?
I'm thankful that ill run a marathon in 2 days! (That's my glass half full countdown method: don't count the day you're in or the day of event!) great pictures! It was such a beautiful weekend
