I Am Thankful For
 
I AM THANKFUL FOR...

....the mess to clean after Thanksgiving dinner because it means I have been surrounded by friends.

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

....my shadow who watches me work because it means I am out in the sunshine.

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

....the spot I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I am capable of walking.

....all the complaining about our government because it means we have freedom of speech.

....my large heating bill because it means I am warm.

....the loads of laundry and ironing because it means my loved ones are nearby.

....weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I have been productive.

....and your friendship.
I hope you all have a wonerful Thanksgiving and thank you for giving me the pleasure of your friendship.

....a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing because I'm a lazy twat and have not been doing the chores.

....the spot I find at the far end of the parking lot because it means I dont have to deal with the 800 disabled sticker drivers fighting over 2 spaces.

....all the complaining about our government because it means they are crap.

....my large heating bill because it means the bitch wont put on extra layers.

....the loads of laundry and ironing piling up because it means she has run off with a Sailor.

....weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day because it means I getting old and this miserable existance will hopefuly end soon.
