Another day…

Today I turned 70, but my brain thinks I’m 52.

I’m grateful for that.

I still seem to have my mind largely intact, although many would argue that point 😉

I’m grateful for that.

My wife has been diagnosed with Parkinson’s and Lewy body dementia for 4+ years. So far, I’ve been able to navigate her caregiving while maintaining myself.

I’m grateful for that.

My 4 kids seem to be navigating life’s challenges largely successfully, although there are always bumps.

I’m grateful for that.

I’ve developed a consulting practice, written a few books, and am largely considered a SME in the Organizational Development, Agile, and Leadership spaces.

I’m grateful for that.

I’ve worked for and learned from a handful of incredible leaders. (Rick, Ralph, Mark, and Steve)

I’m grateful for that.

I have a few close friends and colleagues in the Agile space. I hope you know who you are.

I’m grateful for each of you.

I’ve had the most incredible luck with pets. We’ve had 4 wonderful dogs that have blessed our lives (Foster, Bentley, Zoe, and Woody). And we now have Lucy 😊

I’m grateful for them.

We found a church that is genuine, supportive, and spiritual.

I’m grateful for the pastor/leadership team and members.

I’ve been able to touch a few lives in my career. Truly making a difference to fellow humans.

I’m grateful for them and the opportunity.

I’m getting better at not letting our current national and Mother Earth ‘situations’ break my spirit.

I’m grateful for that.

I woke up this morning, washed myself, went to the bathroom, and got dressed.

I’m grateful for that 😉

I get to spend another day with the woman I married and the life the universe has blessed me with.

I’m incredibly grateful for that!

I appreciate ALL of my readers. Thanks for staying until the end of this one.

I’m grateful for that.

Happy 70^th, my friends,

Bob.
