This is my first post, so I thought I would make it a good one!
The spouse who hogs the covers every night,
because he or she is not out with someone else.
The teenager who is not doing the dishes but is watching TV,
because that means he or she is at home and not out on the streets.
For the taxes that I pay,
because it means I am employed.
For the mess to clean up after a party,
because it means that I have been surrounded by friends.
For the clothes that fit a little snug,
because it means I have enough to eat.
For my shadow that watches me work,
because it means I am out in the sunshine.
For a lwn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing,
because it means I have a home.
For all the complaining I hear about the government,
because it means that we have te Freedome of Speech.
For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot,
because it means that I am capable of walking and that I have been blessed with transportation.
For my huge heating bill,
because it means I am warm.
For the lady behind me in line at the store who continually bitches about the prices of food,
because it means that I can hear.
For the pile of laundry and ironing left to do,
because it means that I have clothes to wear.
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day,
because it means that I have been capable of working hard.
For the alarm that goes of in the early morning hours,
because it means that I am alive.
And finally,
For too much email,
because it means that I have friends who are thinking of me.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
