I Am Thankful For...
 

The Spouse Who Hogs The Covers Every Night, Because He/She Is Not Out With Someone Else.

The Teenager Who Is Not Doing Dishes But Is Watching T.V., Because That Means He/She Is At Home And Not On The Streets.

For The Taxes That I Pay, Because It Means That I Am Employed.

For The Mess To Clean After A Party, Because It Means That I Have Been Surrounded By Friends.

For The Clothes That Fit A Little Too Snug, Because It Means I Have Enough To Eat.

For My Shadow That Watches Me Work, Because It Means I Am Out In The Sunshine.

For A Lawn That Needs Mowing, Windows That Need Cleaning, And Gutters That Need Fixing, Because It Means I Have A Home.

For All The Complaining I Hear About The Government, Because It Means That We Have Freedom Of Speech.

For The Parking Spot I Find At The Far End Of The Parking Lot, Because It Means I Am Capable Of Walking And That I Have Been Blessed With Transportation.

For My Huge Heating Bill, Because It Means I Am Warm.

For The Lady Behind Me In Church That Sings Off Key, Because It Means That I Can Hear.

For The Pile Of Laundry And Ironing, Because It Means I Have Clothes To Wear.

For Weariness And Aching Muscles At The End Of The Day, Because It Means I Have Been Capable Of Working Hard.

For The Alarm That Goes Of In The Early Morning Hours, Because It Means That I Am Alive.

And Finally... For Too Much E-Mail, Because It Means I Have Friends And Family Who Are Thinking Of Me.
