I'm spending Thanksgiving at work. The pilgrims didn't land in China. I'm sorry I couldn't be with my family (celebrating at my sister's place in Connecticut), but to uphold a family tradition, I am providing my list of what I am thankful for:
- I am thankful that I have a family and friends who are supportive of the weird things I like to do - like take off for China for a year
- I am thankful for the technology that makes it much easier to keep in touch affordably.
- Thanks also for built in grand-dog sitting (by my parents) on a grand scale - I know she is loved and cared for (except by one mean cat)
- I am thankful that I have fun, smart co-workers both here and at CARE
- I am thankful for my nice comfortable safe apartment with hot water and heat and a comfortable bed and a flushing toilet. Many people in the world do not have any of this.

- I am thankful for all the yummy food and for easy access to the gym that I will be using to offset it.
- I am particularly thankful for the long warm coat I bought yesterday in the outlet store in the bottom of my building - it even has a hood! I wore it to work today (4 degrees C; 39 F) and it was too warm!
See you all in a few weeks!
