Thankful Thursday

[mollyrunner]

Good morning!  

I'm on spring break this week and although I didn't go anywhere exciting it has been so nice to get ahead on classes and research.  

DH is out of town for a long weekend with his bffs from college to watch basketball, drink and eat.  I am thankful for time to play with the toddler and thankful DH is getting a much needed adults weekend.  Everyone will be happier next week.

Thankful I went to BodyPump this week.  I forgot how much I like going and am pleasantly sore.

I'm thankful that this cold I got hit with on Monday seems to be clearing up, and that the 5k I'm running on Saturday is just for fun and a medal and not something I was hoping to PR or anything.

Also thankful that I talked to my wife last night about maybe possibly registering for a HM in October and she was really supportive of the idea. OMGIthinkI'mgoingtodoit.

Thankful for a really great time with family last weekend, and for my birthday coming up.

I am thankful for my DH. We've been together a really long time, and it's not always easy, but it's always worth it. We make a good team.

I am also thankful for our friends who get into town today, and for the fun days that will follow. I'm so excited to see them! They're such wonderful people. I am also excited that after a long road of trying (they were looking into adoption), they got pregnant, and will be welcoming their first son in August.

I'm thankful for Groupon. I got 20 small group Trainings at a boxing studio for $79. The classes are just intense circuit training, not boxing which is exactly what I need to start getting back in shape. The only downside is the trainer who led it didn't really correct anyone's for or encourage good form. I know what I should be doing well enough though.

Also, the have a Jacobs ladder there. It's kind of been my dream to try one since I saw it on the Biggest Loser.

This is pretty AWish, but I am thankful that I can look at the pictures from this past weekend and be happy with the way my body looks.

I'm so thankful for my running group. For the first time in my adult life, I feel like I am making new good friends. The fact that they push me to be stronger and faster (and accept and encourage me even though I'm one of the slowest) is just icing on the cake. I had a blast with everyone this past weekend in Virginia Beach.

I am thankful for L's daycare. They are so wonderful to her. We happened to run into the director following my 5K this past Saturday, and L ran right up to her and gave her a giant hug. It makes me feel so good that the women she spends her time with on weekdays love her so much.

I am also thankful to be going on vacation one week from today! Woo hoo!

I'm thankful my first yoga class went very well!
I'm thankful for being active and the ability to be active
I'm thankful for ice cream sandwiches
I'm thankful for my husband

I'm thankful for my H. Everything he does is in an effort to make my life easier, and lately he has really been on his game.

Kind of an uneventful week here. I don't mind that. DH will home on Saturday night instead of Sunday, so I'm excited about that about having a full weekend day together.

I'm thankful for my husband and that we're in a really good stretch right now. It's been on/off rocky for the past 2 years since DS was born.

I'm thankful for my son-and all he has taught me. He may be only 2, but he has taught me to stop and enjoy things a bit more instead of constantly being go, go, go. Also, I've recently been thinking that it wouldn't be so bad to have a second, even though we're 95% one/done, but looking at DS I think that I should be content with what I have-a little boy who is full of life, energy, health and happiness.

We played Apples to Apples with my Nana who is having memory issues. She did really great, and was winning for a while. She couldn't remember which card she had picked once we got all the way around the table, but the cards she picked were right on. It made me thankful that her mind is still there, and that she's still with us, even if she forgets what she just said 5 minutes ago!

I'm also thankful that my husband has really taken a turn and has gotten himself into better shape. I want him to be around for a long time!

[enfuego23]

I'm thankful that I can RUN again!!!

I'm thankful for DH - he has done all of the planning for our cruise and I'm very appreciatve of that.

I'm thankful for dark chocolate- yum:)

Ummmm, can we discuss your sig for a minute? When did he get so big?! How is he looking so full on baby already? He skipped right over newborn. He's gorgeous!

I am thankful that I get to leave work early today and do something fun with my dog. We're going on a pet therapy visit to a local college to give students some stress relief prior to midterms. What's not to love about a roomful of dogs getting belly rubs and making people smile?!

I am thankful that today is supposed to be 68 degrees.
I am thankful that I had a massage last night. I hurt my back earlier this week.
I am thankful for good drugs to help me get through this sinus infection.

Once again... This is going to get old... I'm thankful that I was born into a relatively good situation compared to many people, especially in other parts of the world. I have had the chance to get to know many people lately who have overcome things that I just can't even imagine. It makes me feel a little bit guilty for being lucky and a whole lot in awe of everything they have accomplished.

On a more 'fluffy' note, I'm thankful that we have been having a cold spell and it is getting into the low 70's at night.

ETA: I'm sorry that I keep bringing up things along the lines of my first point. Our most recent move has put me into a situation where my whole world perspective has changed a great deal. Even after living in India, I am still seeing things and hearing incredible stories that just blow me away on a daily basis. I have literally cried on my way home from work more than a few times in a 'holy shit any challenge or struggle that I have ever faced is so superficial' kind of way.
