Nov 18th: I am thankful to have my sister a bit closer than this time last year. It is wonderful to be able to text her anything and everything, and call whenever I want to chat. I am so excited to see what new places her career takes her to.

Nov 19th: My aunt as a child to her grandmother, "How old do you think you'll live to be?" "one hundred... And that's enough for me." My great grandmother died this morning at 100 years old. I am so thankful for the beautiful life she lived, and all the family she helped bring into this world.

Nov 20th: I am thankful my back is healing. I swam because that is better on the body than running. It felt so good to get some exercise after two weeks of pain. I'm waiting til Thanksgiving to run again, but bring on the Turkey Trotz
