He's going to get some brothers and sisters before terribly long. I'm feeling well enough to at least do some woodscribing and some small saw-work. The doctor cleared me to drive so tomorrow I'm going over to one of my suppliers and pick up some more 1/2" furniture grade plywood.

Thank the Gods for good health! And thank friends for keeping the faith.

I am most thankful for sooo many things that have happened in my world this yr!

...I met the man I will grow old with, that every moment of everyday seeing him makes me shiver like a school girl...at 40!

...That my 13 yr old daughter is basically a good teenager, and is really turning out to be one hellave a burner, even though she's only lived it vicariously through me.Which means teaching her to love not hate all these yrs is paying off!

...That I was surrounded by friends and family all day and night! and we danced till triptifen took over, and sent me to a warm bed.

...That I was able to wake up this morning and let me poor(sick) dog out before the mess was to bad...who gave the poultry intollerant dog turkey last night???

...That Ive met the most amazing,wonderful, loving and all inspiring people from all over the world and right here locally this year....BECAUSE of BURNINGMAN!

...After 13 years of "wanting to go" finally making it to burningman!!!

...for burningman and its people, for making that wait soooo worth it, because...DREAMS DO COME TRUE!!!

...but mostly I thank the powers that be...for putting me on this planet to experience both good and bad things, for experiences have made me who I am, and for that I am thankful!

LOVE TO EVERYONE! EVERYWHERE!

p.s. Thanks Bambi!

I'm grateful for my on-playa and on e-playa friends for getting me through a hellacious time this late summer.

I'm thankful for not having to have suffered a solo Thanksgiving yesterday...like I did last year...

Also thankful that the honey-instead-of-sugar meringue experiment worked out perfectly.

I heart you , Bambi. I am so thankful for all the toys I ordered from Adam & Eve last week while high on wine. (Woo-hoo!) I have been giving thanks all week. Does that count for giving thanks? 'Cuz I'm thankful. I really am. Woot! Woo-hoo!!! I heart the holidays.
