OK.....it's that time, isn't it?

WHAT ARE YOU GRATEFUL FOR?

Here's mine:

1....my mom is still fighting. Yesterday was the 1 year mark that my mom had her kidney out after her cancer diagnosis. She's doing GREAT!

2....my boys. They're healthy, they just turned 7 & 10 last month and today's school conferences proved they're good, hard-working students. What else can a Mom ask for, right???

3....my health and the ability to stay dedicated to it....which then brings me to being thankful for all the fitness instructors in my life!

4....my friends. That includes MANY MANY of you here, and all the Random Acts of Kindness I've been receiving (you know who you are, lol).

YOUR TURN!
