We have a lot to be thankful for. Even if we're not making all the cash we want, or not exactly where we want to be, things are good. I thought for today's tip, we should all post a comment for one thing we're thankful for!
I am thankful for my family and friends! I love them! (Sorry I stole the obvious pick.)

okay I think that more people should have posted comments, but I guess everyone's busy cooking or something. I am thankful for a job that I like and to be with family for the holidays.
After a day of complete silliness at the VM household, I am thankful for, well, complete silliness. Sample conversations from the kitchen today: "I got a raise at work last week." "You mean they put your chair up on blocks?" and: "I'm not going to sing in the choir this year." "Are you revolting?" "Some people think so, yes..."
And so it goes. It's like Statler and Waldorf from the Muppets, 24/7. Yay for complete silliness.
I was away from the computer yesterday, signing on MY NEW HOUSE! :-) My family came in last night and we've been alternating meals with moving boxes and painting a room. Lots of togetherness! I am so very thankful for a supportive family! My new digs are kind of cool, too.

Another 11:11! Was that intentional Jay?
And yeah I am thankful for God, family, and friends.
This is a tip for those who might run where giant swarms of gnats sometimes loiter by the side of the road. This tip stems from a run on the Mayan Riviera in Mexico, but I've encountered swarms of gnats in Virginia and Kentucky as well. After your run, always stop and look in a mirror before going into public. Otherwise, you might actually complete a transaction at the resort store and greet five people before realizing you have up to 15 gnats stuck to your face and neck.
We've all heard the phrase "speak softly but carry a large stick." Well, this applies to acolytion as well, sort of. We'd like to reword it "walk slowly when carrying a large stick." In other words, if you're "lightin' it up" you really need to walk slowly to get to your proverbial candles. Otherwise, your flame will burn out on that walk down the aisle. Then, you'll look like a tool, and have to fake light a bunch of candles ceremoniously. Now THAT is embarrassment.
