In some ways I think Thanksgiving is the most meaningful holiday of the year. A spirit of thankfulness is what brings harmony to mankind, the cure for fear and anger alike.
In my book November is official thankfulness month. Time to celebrate people and things I'm thankful for from this past year. Family will not be included in this list; feels too much like a cop-out.
Being a condominium board president combines the fun of property maintenance and the joy of satisfying 32 different personalities. Dave Carroll stepped in during a particularly hectic year. A unit was completely soaked and frozen during the polar vortex, creating an unprecedented insurance claim and all the trappings that go along with it. Our carport project took longer and cost more than expected, with confusion among contractors and frustration among residents. Dave's taken it all in stride, managing by walking around constantly, and keeping mild-mannered and humorous throughout. Leadership can make or break a neighborhood, and he's kept the ship upright during very choppy seas.
