This Thanksgiving 2021 I am grateful for:
1) Brothers who build me new decks, septic systems and fix my lawn mowers for 30 years—it’s their fault I have zero tech skill because they can do everything!
2) A sister who gave me a down coat that keeps me warm flying down the town hill on the fine new bike gifted me by my sister-in-law, though I look lumpy as Mrs. Michelin.
3) A Florida sister who invites me to Ft. Myers in the dead of the frigid Iowa winter, and I go, fretting about my carbon footprint all the way.
4) Pickleball and friends to play with even though it makes me swear to high heavens and forget the score when I miss the ball. Even if I am winning.
5) 5) Iowa sunrises and sunsets that turn the whole world rose, if only for a few brilliant, precious, transitory moments.
6 6) Food I’ve grown—here’s hoping I/we, none of us eat too much!
a Happy Turkey Day to Everyone.
