Good morning!
I'm thankful for a good night of sleep, and my upcoming coffee.
I'm thankful for the feeling of a worked body after an early morning workout.
I'm thankful for early morning cuddles and sweet smiles.
And I'm thankful for inspiring people around me. One of my friends posted this the other day and I loved it and have to share. "Move like you love yourself. Eat like you love yourself. Speak like you love yourself." It was really what I needed to hear this week and a great message to share with my classes.
I'm thankful for living in the south, where the past few days our January weather is mid/high 60s
I'm thankful for my SIL/BIL, who just picked up their first foster baby this week and she is adorable. It is heartbreaking thinking about that child's life & why they had to come into foster care, but so happy she has a warm, clean, loving house to thrive in.
I am thankful that I'm working from home today, which means that 1) I was able to get an extra 1.5 hrs of much needed sleep, and 2) I get to go for a run at lunch in my new shoes, when it is actually light out! Sunny and 65*.
I am thankful that we have a fun weekend coming up. I'll go down to Celebration with two friends on Saturday. DH has a 50 mile trail ride, and then he'll drive down to meet us. Now that everyone is only doing the half, and 3/4 of us are only doing it for fun, it will be a very fun & chill weekend.
I am thankful for the 3 months of fun we have coming up. Charleston in March, NYC in April, Portland/Seattle/Denver in May.

I'm thankful for a loving husband who's willing to massage my neck at 1:00am because I have a headache and can't sleep. I'm thankful for cute, snuggly kids who give the best hugs.

What good people. That little girl's life just become full of love and opportunity.
Thankful for my H, my cuddly dogs, my treadmill ( even though it's love/hate), yoga class, my family, and our farm, our jobs , and our freedoms. Also, coffee.

The baby giggles (I die!!) when she figures out toys make noise - are amazing . she is a happy baby!
As strange as it may sound, I'm so thankful for the surgery I just had. Now that I'm pretty much back to normal (and can go back to full activity!) I realize now just how bad I actually was. I grew so used to the daily pain that it became normal to me. Now that it's gone, I'm so happy I could cry.
I'm also thankful for my husband, who was an amazing, patient, and supportive caretaker the whole time.
And for a small AW, I'm happy about the top paper honors AND the article acceptance I got this week. Not a bad start to 2015!
I am getting a little teary just thinking about how thankful I am right now. My H was in a bad accident this morning and I am thankful he is okay. (And selfishly thankful it was at work so they can deal with all the calls/paperwork. It makes life easier) We also got new renters already, less than a month after our previous renters broke the lease and left a hell of a mess. I feel like we get lucky a lot. I stress about things, but things always seem to work out somehow. I'd like to not cut it so close, but what can you do

I'm so glad you are feeling good and getting back to full activity! That's really fantastic.
I know exactly what you mean though about the surgery. I had no idea just how used to pain I had become until I had my gallbladder removed. The recovery was way harder than I anticipated, but after I recovered I felt like I had a new body - like I had gotten 5 years younger overnight.

I'm thankful this week is a lower mileage recovery week. My knee is really feeling cranky (injured 8 or 9 years ago) and has been feeling like this since I fell a couple of weeks ago. I realize I've neglected my knee strengthening since it had been feeling fine for so long. Now I'm getting nervous about why it's feeling like this. I'm only in week 6 of 18! Next weekend is the start of all the new territory mileage on long runs for me. How am I going to get to the finish line (or the start line!) in one piece if I'm achy already?!
I am thankful for Costco lol. I was suspicious at first, but now I'm a convert. Giant bags of pre-cut vegetables? Uhh, yeah. Not buying 4+ packs of 1lb ground beef per week (one pack IS 4lbs!!) and getting side eyed by the cashier? Yes, please. Perfect workout pants? Just take my money! Oh and 30 packs of La Croix, can't forget about those.
I am thankful for my French press and for being able to work with such good people. I'm also thankful I missed my workout this morning, and I actually MISS it. I'm so appreciative that my attitude towards exercise has done a 180.
I'm thankful I didn't throw up during yesterday morning's progressive run.
Speaking of vomit, I'm thankful J was able to switch his day off to today so he could stay home with a pukey toddler who threw up all over me last night then at some point during the night. He's been okay since he got up today so hoping it continues...
I'm thankful that we were able to diagnose DS's inability to walk this week. He's got the flu and myositis. Getting freakout calls from DH that DS wasn't able to walk was stressful. Luckily today he was able to walk first thing in the morning as opposed to hours after giving him meds.
DH doesn't get home until midnight, so I'm on my own for dinner. I just ordered sushi. I get to pick it up in 30 min and I'm drooling. It's been too long since I've had sushi.
