I am thankful for Jesus, and for the <a href=\"http:\/\/scriptures.lds.org\/en\/bm\/contents\">Book of Mormon<\/a>.  I am thankful for my awesome wife, who woke me up with the smells of piping hot <a href=\"http:\/\/www.pillsbury.com\/view\/breakfast\/sweetrolls.aspx\">orange danishes<\/a> this morning.  Mmm danishes, they are SO much better than sweet rolls.  Oh yeah, danishes, danishes, danishes!  I&#8217;m also thankful for a baby that actually sleeps at night!<\/p>\n<p>In other news, the check engine light has been on in the Civic for a few days.  I took it to Autozone, who will <a href=\"http:\/\/autozone.com\/in_our_stores\/trouble_codes.htm\">read the codes for free<\/a>.  As I am on my way to Autozone, no more than 2 miles away, the light goes off!  Luckily though the car computer saves the code, and they were able to read it.  Sounds like we need to replace the Oxygen sensor, which will probably run $100 or so.<\/p>\n<p>At work, in the IT department at least, they let us go home early the day before a holiday.  What I find somewhat humorous is that it&#8217;s always like a secret and a surprise.  I overheard one of the managers talking to one of the other ones about how you should just go around at 3 and tell everyone they can go home.  &#8220;Oh, really?  You mean just like every other holiday for the past 5 years?!&#8221; :-).  Still, I am thankful to have a good job at a company I like that lets me support my family, and allows my wife to stay home with our basketball team<\/p>\n<p>Also in other news, my mom and step-dad came down to visit last weekend.  I took my dad on a bike ride around town (about 12 miles).  I think he&#8217;s not used to all the hills around here.  I guess I didn&#8217;t realize it was so hilly here.  In his defense, he was on the crap-o mountain bike.  Afterwards he expressed that he had a lot more respect for my <a href=\"http:\/\/everywhatever.blogspot.com\">50-mile ride<\/a> earlier<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>I am thankful for lots of things.
