I sit here today, as on Thanksgiving for the last 4 years, remembering my Dad. My nephew posted on his FB that he was thankful for a life of adventure and that he hadn't been shot by any jealous husbands this year. It made me smile. I am thankful that aside from myself, my nephew carries my father's true spirit within him.
I am also thankful for my new job. In this economy to have a job is a blessing, to be able to get a better job is a miracle. So I am sooooo thankful for my new job.
I am thankful for the wonderful people and children that have touched my heart at my old job and made me a better person this year. Some are no longer here and I hope their families are rejoicing in the time they did have and are still thankful for memories. (I'm pretty sure they are because they are just those kind of wonderful, loving folks.) I am super thankful for A.B.'s new heart and for the kids that are HOME celebrating this holiday with their family.
I am abundantly thankful for my wonderful son. His health, his brain, his caring, his sense of humor....hell even his dirty dishes in the sink todaybut today only, I'll be bitchin' in my head about it again tomorrow.
I am thankful for good, healthy, organic food in my fridge. A warm cute roof over our head. This community and website (and especially its founders). My friends.
My father used to say that he was the luckiest man he knew. I have to agree and say, I am one of the luckiest people I know. When I get to be 94, like he was, I'm sure I'll say I am THE luckiest as well. 
Happy Thanks-giving Y'all.
A
