Yeah, yeah, I know. Thanksgiving has come and gone. And yes I know that others have already done the ‘Thank You’ blog post.

I unfortunately just now got around to starting finishing my Thank You thought.

I am appreciative and Thankful for:

Still being here ~ somehow someone wants me around

My health ~ I’m not injured or hurt (ever not have full function of your arm?)

My happiness

My beautiful wife said YES (when I asked her to marry me)

My wife’s health, heart and patience (I truly believe I have THE BEST wife)

My family and their health

My friends and their health

My education and training (as a nurse and an athletic trainer)

My career and my job (in this economy having a job IS a blessing)

My fellow colleagues and co-workers (past & present)

For the many wonderful people I have met through the Blogosphere (all my medi-tweeps and their respective blogs)

For my blog and all those who have been a part of it (yep I actually like blogging)

For Beth from PixelRN for having the vision and patience to ignite the many, many connections I have made through Twitter

There are a plethora of ‘things’ that I am leaving off this list. I think I could fill up pages and pages with lists of things I am thankful for, but I follow the K.I.S.S. principle, and this list sums up what I am most thankful for and most appreciative to have encountered.

Life is all about the little things in life. The smallest of things can be so larger than life most times. Be sure to enjoy what matters and let go of anything that does not compliment your life.

Take care of yourself and yours.

My Love.

Carpe Diem
