Very Thankful for Thanksgiving

On this Tuesday before Thanksgiving, I find myself thinking about what I am thankful for in my life and so, I have come up with an extensive list. Here goes:
  1. Family (most obvious)
  2. My hub TK (almost as obvious)
  3. Friends (another obvious one)
  4. Pencil Sharpeners or Erasers (when there isn't one around, how annoying is it?)
  5. Animals and wildlife photographers/videographers
  6. The Internet
  7. Soldiers (they fight for our right to be who we are)
  8. Nail files
  9. Bathtubs (nothing better than a long relaxing soak)
  10. Post-its
  11. Craft fairs
  12. Fruit (always the healthy option)
  13. Kindhearted people
  14. Cemeteries (so you can still visit the ones you love)
  15. Knowledge
  16. Taste buds
  17. The other four senses
  18. Football
  19. Piggy Banks
  20. Hair ties
  21. Bookmarks
  22. Art
  23. Talent (everyone is good at something)
  24. Baked goods
  25. Hot Cocoa and Chai Tea Lattes (or I wouldn't visit Starbucks)
  26. Magazines
  27. Sales and the clearance section
  28. Gentlemen (not all men are gentlemen)
  29. Sports bras
  30. Ribcage (for protecting my organs during sports and my brother's hugs)
  31. Chip clips
  32. Witty comebacks (some people just need to be shut up)
  33. Stacy London & Clinton Kelly (they help those that can't help themselves)
  34. C Sections
  35. Music
  36. Alcohol (when necessary)
  37. Good customer service (especially when traveling or during the holidays)
  38. Cameras
  39. High fives (a display of your teammate's approval)
  40. Holidays (an excuse for families to get together)
  41. Insurance
  42. Slippers
  43. Yoga
  44. Disney (I can be a kid again and this list is not in number order)
  45. Waiters/Waitresses/Bartenders/Bussers (who the heck wants to get their own food)
  46. A job that pays money
  47. Calendars
  48. Libraries
  49. Caller ID
  50. Smelly candles
Those were the first 50 things I could think of, but I know there are more.

Thanksgiving is the time of year to remember to say "thank you" for all the things and to all the people that have made living your life a little easier. So to you, I say "Thank you." (Only in English this time.)

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
