i'm thankful for...

as we enter thanksgiving week (aka the best food holiday of the year), i think it'd be an excellent idea to:
a) update all of us on your life!  just like sarah said
b) reflect on what we're thankful for

life: databasing like crazypants and eliminating viruses like a regular medical professional at NICE, basking in the joy of the ryman (needtobreathe last week, andrew peterson in december), preparing mentally and physically for the holiday season (pumped for footie pajamas, peppermint schnapps, christmas music, hot chocolate, and holiday movies), and leaving for namibs in 38 days.  got my placement and will be calling the small town of helao nafidi my home for the next year (and beyond?).

thankfulness: being right here right now by the grace of god, nashville, dad&jen, the best unpaid job ever, a place to live, unbridled enthusiasm, funfetti brownies, joy, helao nafidi, more time, growing pains, beachweek memories, grace, living out a plan that's not my own, snail mail, hugs&snuggling, pumpkin muffins, finishing fundraising, long car rides & felix the matrix, ability to walk, reunions, new friends, community group, love, fall leaves & colors & smells, all forms of electronic communication, roomies old&new, relationships, good books, queen size bed, immigrant&refugee community, photos, wtnam, bluegrass, learning, communion, half marathons, feelings, the south & southern food, blogs, unexpected adventures, coffeeshops, every part of nature, the weather, big mugs & hot tea...

and you, and you, and you. duh.

what about you?  happy thanksgiving, sweet friends.
