    My sister just sent me this and I felt I had to share it. If she hates me for posting it... she knows where I am...



    Thanksgiving is just around the corner.

    I'll be heading home, as I am sure many of you will be. At this time of year, I find myself wondering what I am thankful for. Now I'm not talking about that sappy, cookie cutter list that starts out "People who love me, a happy home, and healthy lives for all those around me." I'm talking about the things that go unthanked every November because nobody wants to mention them around the time honored turkey for fear the family will disown them.

    I have compiled a list of some things I am thankful for and I hope you feel inspired to reflect on your own ideas, lives, and the things you should be thankful for...

    1. $.44 candy bars from Wal-Mart
    2. Cotton underwear that covers my entire butt
    3. Refrigerators, so my food doesn't mold...as fast
    4. Light beer
    5. Delivery boys (pizza, furniture, newspapers... it's like opening a Christmas present everytime... "will I like what I see or will I have to pretend?")
    6. Keebler Elves, they brought us more kinds of cookies and crackers than thought humanly possible... it had to be the work of elves
    7. The sunken in spot on the couch from my butt that has been created over the past 10 years
    8. George Strait... and tight pants
    9. Crayons
    10. Plastic ware and paper plates


    Feel free to add to the list or create your own... and have a wonderful Thanksgiving.



    Thanks Lace.
