Thanksgiving

It's that time of year for us to remind ourselves of what we should be thankful for!

I am thankful for the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato, because he is home with his family and not out on the town.

I am thankful for the taxes I have to pay because it means I am employed.

I am thankful for the mess I have to clean after a party because it means I have been surrounded by friends.

I am thankful for the clothes that fit a little too snug because it means I have enough to eat.

I am thanful for my shadow that watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine.

I am thankful for a lawn that needs cleaning, windows that need cleaning, and gutters that need fixing because it means I have a home.

I am thanful for all the complaining I hear about the government because it means we have a freedom of speech.

I am thankful for  the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking and I have been blessed with transportation.

I am thankful for my huge heating bill because it means I am warm.

I am thankful for the lady behind me in church who sings off key because it means I can hear.

I am thankful for the pile of laundry and ironing because it means I have clothes to wear.

I am thanful for the weariness and aching in my muscles at the end of the day because it means I have been capable of working hard.

I am thankful for the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours because it means I am alive!

And most important, I am thankful for all the blessing the Lord have given me!

Have a very blessed and joyous Thanksgiving!
