Today I am thankful for the time I got to spend with family, the beautiful outdoors, the sunshine, and my pup Ginger. I am also thankful for the ability to read, think and work on my studies. I think I am slowly formulating plans for papers yet to be finished before the end of the semester. Most of all I am thankful for my parents. Both of them are failing in health, but I am very grateful to still have them even if sometimes they do frustrate me with their forgetfulness, repeating themselves twenty times, and their numerous requests and distractions when I am very busy. I truly am blessed to have them in my life at the ages of 92 and 86. I can only hope to live that long and remain as active as they still are. I am blessed.
