Month of Thanksgiving

November starts the month of Thanksgiving. To me this is where I start to look back on the year, go thru and find just want I am grateful for. Let’s begin.

I will start with I am grateful to be waking up each day. I will be turning 60 in a few short months and that means the days before me are shorter than the days behind me and I am grateful that the Lord still has a plan for me.

I am grateful for my job. Then pendulum keeps shifting in the corporate world and I struggle to stay afloat with it all. Work life balance has shifted and corporations lead folks away from work life balance. Oh how I miss the days when companies really cared for their employees and their mental health.

As noted above I am grateful for reaching another milestone of hitting 60, which means retirement is in site.

I am grateful for my dogs and my Peloton, for without each, as in their own way help me with the severe anxiety I have struggled with for over a decade now.

I’d love to say I am thankful for friends, but I can’t. Since the dreaded 2019 world events, there are no friends, just me and my dogs. I’d even like to say I am thankful for family, although I have family, we are more of checkin on holidays and birthday family.

Overall I am hear and will see where 2025 takes me.

For all never take the small things for granted. Remember to live life with a bigger balance on LIFE. If you and your family are close make sure they know they are loved by you. NEVER be ashamed or afraid to say I love you.
