I’ve had this “I’m Thankful” message sent to my email in box probably 10 times in the past two years. It says something like “I’m thankful that I have high heating bills because it means that I have a house to heat” or some similar wording. Well, here’s my version of the “I’m Thankful” list…
I’m thankful that I have grey hair to color – it means that I’m an involved, worried parent,
I’m thankful that gas is finally cheaper – it means that I can afford to drive my American made car,
I’m thankful that I married my adorable DH – he’d be lost without me,
I’m thankful that I am a librarian – it makes paying off my fines very easy,
I’m thankful that my teen daughter wants me to take her to the mall every weekend – it means that she still likes me and my money,
I’m thankful that my dog will not stop barking – it makes her more adorable when she’s quiet,
I’m thankful that I’m always cold – it gives me an excuse to buy more cute sweaters,
I’m thankful that I was told to learn web 2.0 – blogging is so much fun.
I’m thankful that I still can’t lift anything over 10 lbs – it makes my family participate in many domestic chores,
I’m thankful that my husband and I are employed – I’ve grown accustomed to eating regularly and having running water,
I’m thankful for Thanksgiving – it’s my very favorite meal of the year and one of my very favorite days too.
Hope you all have lots to be thankful for this year – wishing you and yours a wonderful Turkey Day.
I’m thankful that you are blogging, too! I love reading your posts, which are insightful and real and funny. 🙂
