So last week I didn't even wind up getting drunk and still didn't manage to get a Thanksgiving blog in, so I'm remedying the situation a week by sharing some gratitude in written form.
First, I need to thank my mothers. Both my own mother and my mother-in-law are the best grandmothers my kids could ask for. My mother has taken care of me through a lot of serious medical issues, so I was grateful to have her there for something that was actually going to be a positive for my health. My mother-in-law is amazing, she's truly the best "other mother" I could ask for. She loves me like her own and I'm blessed to have her in my life (you too, Papa Bryan).
Thad, you are my rock, even when you are not always terribly nice to me. You put up with some of my more amazing shenanigans and still manage to love me unconditionally, even when you don't seem to like me (it's true, we're like cats and dogs sometimes). You stuck with me during really crappy stuff, you've been there when our children came into the world and you've been an amazing father and husband. You're my viking, and I love you so big it surprises me sometimes.
Elora and Colter, thank you for being so good for your grandparents when you spent time with them in Colstrip. You got spoiled rotten, which is the best part of staying with grandparents, and I am so happy you're home, you're healthy (at the moment) and you're mine.
MORGAN- you're the yin to my yang. I love that you live life like you're rolling nothing but Yahtzee's, and I so appreciate your coming and spending the day with me after surgery. I'm looking forward to our bestie vacation in February (Chico!), and I fully expect my own pan of homemade Snickers this year! Love you, bunny!
I have a lot of other folks that wished me luck and checked on my progress after surgery, so thank you all for your kind wishes and your prayers. I'm attending my company Christmas Party tomorrow night and I hope to get a nice picture so I can post some pictures of my "after".
Only 24 more shopping days until Christms! Yikes, I better get on it!
