Stuffed

So now that Thanksgiving has come and gone, i can tell you one thing for sure...i got more stuffed than the turkey!! Turkey and all its trimmings is one of my favorite meals, so at Christmas, Thanksgiving, Easter and any other turkey eatin holidays, i eat and eat and eat...pretty sure i put on about 10 lbs in one weekend. :)
However, my ramblings today have nothing to do with turkey, they are more about giving thanks. Each Thanksgiving gives me the time to reflect on just how lucky i am. Every year for thanksgiving we go up to my wife's parents cottage for three or four days and get a chance for a Little down time. The stretch from labour day to Thanksgiving is our busiest time of year and we go non stop during those 5 or 6 weeks. Spend the weekend with our family, some good quality time together and not really think about work. It gives me the chance to reflect on what i am thankful for. I have a wonderful family, loving wife, great staff, awesome friends, i get paid to do what i love, so i am very thankful. I will never take for granted what i have because i know it can all be taken away in the blink of an eye.We spend one weekend a year giving thanks for what we have. Maybe we should be giving thanks on a daily basis? What are you thankful for?

just the ramblings in my head...
