Thanksgiving

I never seem to be able to get in sync with the "real" world, and today is no exception. I was just moved to comment on how perfect it was a morning at our house today. The sun was out and shining through our windows, there was a fire cackling in the stove, we were snuggled up in covers and pets and comfortable in our chairs drinking good coffee and watching the Sunday political shows on TV. It occurred to me then that my resolution this year is to be mindful of the moment and to be thankful for it, not waiting for that faraway day in November to count my blessings.
