We would also like to extend our gratitude by wishing all of you a Happy Thanksgiving!  <\/em><\/p>\n<p>Since elementary school I&#8217;ve been &#8220;trained&#8221; to think about all the things that I have to give &#8220;thanks&#8221; for around the Thanksgiving Holiday.  Somehow, this tradition has continued to be engrained in my mind.  This Thanksgiving I have a lot to be thankful for, despite having a rough year medically.  Most of you are aware of the fact that I tore my ACL in February, resulting in reconstructive surgery the following month.  Then, this summer I had another scare caused by a suspicious tumor in my thyroid, resulting in a partial thyroid lobectomy.  All in all, both of these surgeries were successful and I am thankful to be in good health for the moment.  <\/p>\n<p>But, I have so much more to be thankful for&#8230;.  I&#8217;m thankful to be living in a place I love, to have my back yard be a mountain playground were I can hike, climb, bike and ski whenever my heart desires.  I am happy to have a boyfriend that cares for me and supports me in all that I do.  I am thankful to have employment tutoring students that are wonderful people and whom I&#8217;m happy to help and make a difference in their lives.  I am happy that my parents care for me and support me, despite the fact that they might not like every decision I make with my life.  I am thankful to be surrounded by friends who make me smile and laugh continuously&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>I have so much to be thankful for, that I cannot possibly list everything.  Most of all, however, I am thankful to be alive, healthy, happy, and living the life that I want to be living.  I cannot ask for anything better!  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Frank and I, here at 14erskiers, would like to thank all of our viewers for checking us out on a<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"ngg_post_thumbnail":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[10],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-871","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-miscellaneous"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/871","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=871"}],"version-history":[{"count":2,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/871\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":873,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/871\/revisions\/873"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=871"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=871"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/14erskiers.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=871"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
