30 Days of Thanksgiving - Day 14

I must admit that I have had a mental block about items to be thankful for. Not because I am not thankful - but because I am too lazy to work up a blog post. Here is a bullet point list of some special items I have had to be thankful for in 2008:

• 2 great kids
• 2 cute grandkids
• a super running trip to Arizona in February
• a cold, but record 50K in the Buffalo Run in March
• recovering quickly from surgery in May
• my sister and friends helping me out after my surgery
• my dad getting through 2 surgeries this summer
• PR's in both the Park City Marathon and St. George Marathon
• surviving the St. George Marathon 2008 (best words to describe it: cold, wet, windy, miserable, challenging)
• moving to Sandy, Utah
• my new townhouse
• an awesome trip to Italy to see my daughter and son-in-law
