Reasons to be thankful
« on: November 13, 2013, 09:27:23 pm »
Since that time of year is nearly on us again: What you got to be thankful for?

1/ Sitting with my Dad, just talking some time but mostly just enjoying each others company.
2/ My wife and my kids and my grand kids. Tiring and hard work, but worth it.
3/ My friends. Some I see daily, some I have never seen, physically. One I see once every 6 years. All the same.
4/ Still breathing. Kind of important, that.
5/ Being in a place where we can afford to help others.
6/ Being blessed with the gift of creativity. Making something from nothing is amazing.
7/ Being in reasonable health for my age.
8/ Whatever quirk in life or my brain made me love to cook.
9/ The adventure. There is always one more good book. One more good movie. One path you never noticed before in front of your door.

Things I am thankful for . . .

My husband is basically healthy (had a big scare this past June);
My children and grand children;
All six of our annoying, yet loveable, dogs;
Good friends;
We both have good jobs;
Getting close to my mother again;
Facebook and SnapChat because it lets me keep up with my daughter.
I'm fluent in three languages: English, Sarcasm, and Profanity.
