I‘m hoping that you’ll all remember that these daily thanksgiving posts don’t stop after American Thanksgiving Day, but go on through the entire month of November. If you can spare the time, please keep posting your thanksgiving.

Today I’m thankful for my health. I’m at the age where I’ve lost a few people close to me to illness, and others my age—or even younger—have struggles with various health problems. So far, I’ve escaped, except for my pesky occasional knee-hip pain, which, when it occurs, can be endured quite well with a sporty knee brace and ibuprofen. I am very, very thankful that I am still strong and healthy. Every day of good health is a good gift to be appreciated with a thankful heart.
