Thanksgiving. It’s all in the name – giving thanks. And I’m thankful for a lot. Here are my top 5 things I’m thankful for this Thanksgiving:
- My family. They’re nuts. But they’re all mine. I like to spin the famous first line of Leo Tolstoy’s Anna Karenina to fit my nutty family: “All normal families resemble one another, but each crazy family is crazy in its own way.”
- Layr-Layr (aka Larry). He’s nuts. But he’s mine. Maybe more importantly, I’m nuts and he digs it.
- My friends. Ditto. Troy and Maria. Anne-Marie and Dave. Barney and O. Chatchy. Jeffrey. Matty A. Ris. Cyn and Mimi. Toddleberry. All you suckas. Love you lots.
- My job. Hey, a job ain’t no sure thang these days. And I know what it feels like not to have one. I’m lucky. I like my job. Big thanks to Danny G for taking a chance on me.
- My health. My cholesterol is probably through the roof and my metabolism is starting to go, but there are folks far worse off than me.
Happy T-day all! What are you thankful for?
