it's all good (usually)

I'm a dozen days behind, so here's what I have been thankful for since the beginning of the month:

1. Excellent man
2. Brilliant children
3. Good friends
4. My own classroom
5. Students even remotely interested in learning
6. Extra hour of sleep
7. Great movies
8. Cheese, all kinds
9. Bartender Dave and his magical concoctions
10. Chocolate anything
11. Veterans like my dad, grandpa, father-in-law, cousins, uncles, and friends
12. The giant blogging community of smart, resourceful, witty people

Rejoicing in the overflow and passing it on.
