Got the idea from the Climbing Up Blog. I may not post 10 every day, but let’s see about 10 for today.

1. For my gorgeous, loving, and supportive Wife. I am so fortunate to have her.
2. For my 3 wonderful children, who teach me so much and love me so much.
3. For my Dad and his wife visiting the first part of this week, and for my Mom, her husband, and my younger sister visiting later this week. Family is so important.
4. To have a good job. Sure the present project isn’t the most fun for me, but it’s interesting, teaches me new things, and reminds me of lessons I learned but forgot.
5. For good friends, to be able to enjoy life and share in its bounty.
6. For venison. 🙂  For the animals that gave their lives to nourish my children. For the skills necessary to get there.
7. For people starting to wake up and realize that our country isn’t as free as it pretends to be, and starting to stand up and say we’re not going to take this crap any more.
8. For this blog, which gives me an outlet. And for the readers, that give me some reason to write.
9. For teachers, both professional and casual. It’s always good to learn from everyone you can.
10. For the life I’ve had so far. Where I am today is not where I ever thought I’d be, but boy it’s been an enjoyable ride so far.
