This year's Thankgiving blog from RHD:
I'm Thankful For...
-the wife who says "it's hot dogs tonight", because it means she is home with me and not out with someone else.
- the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato because he is home with me and not out at the bars.
- the teenager who is complaining about doing dishes because it means she is at home, not on the streets.
- the taxes I pay, because it means I am employed.
- the mess to clean after a party because it means i have been surrounded by friends.
- the clothes that fit a little too tightly because it means I have enough to eat.
- my a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing because it means that I have a house.
- all of the complaining I hear about the government, because it means we have freedom of speech.
- the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot, because it means I am capable of walking and have been blessed with transportation.
- my huge heating bill, because it means I am warm.
- the pile of laundry and ironing because it means I have clothes to wear.
- aching muscles at the end of the day, because it means I am capable of working hard.
- the alarm that goes off early in the morning, because it means I am alive.
