I haven't done one of these posts in so long... casualty of a very busy summer. But it's back, so here are my current thanks. Picture: awesome chocolate caramel torte we had last week

1. Work confusion gone -- While I'm not super happy about the outcomes, I am thankful that all the confusion and craziness around my job has settled. I have so much peace of mind from this.

2. Reading time -- I'm really enjoying getting back into reading for pleasure. Loving it!

3. Great South Bay weather -- I love love love the weather around here. I'm constantly hot because of the pregnancy, but the cooler temperatures let me live in relative comfort.

4. Sleep -- Having my mom and the boys around last week was so much fun. But it's nice to get back to a regular sleep schedule in my own bed.

5. Lastly, a sad but hopeful thanks. A friend and family was in a very bad car accident last week. One involved died, another is in very serious condition, and another is recovering. I am thankful for the light injuries of one and the continual improvement of another. Keep fighting!
