Default Thanksgiving.

I know its an American thing, and its tomorrow.

I like the idea of taking stock and remembering what you have to be grateful for, and it seemed like it was as good excuse as any.

Post up the top things you are grateful for... I´ll start you off with a couple of mine.

My health - not just saying it, Ive seen others dwindle life because of ill health and am pleased that my small aches and pains are of no consequence and I am able to enjoy my life.

My friends - I have some blinding friends and Im so proud to have so many I do call friends, Im sure that number gets smaller as you age, but I am fortunate to be able still to be able to count them on more then two hands.

Happy thanksgiving.

To be honest I am grateful for everything in my life, good and bad

The good stuff keeps me happy and the bad stuff helps me learn and keeps me grounded

Yes it is and I'm grateful for a day off to eat turkey!
Got to celebrate with both sides of the family so two turkey dinners to attend.
And my last chance to enjoy it before start trying to lose weight.

Also grateful I managed to make the AR in 2010 and meet everyone.
(planning on the same for 2011)

Then you should know that Thanksgiving is also in Canada, but in October -thus doubling your excuses to be thankful and also eat yourself into a turkey-coma.

Just ate Danish Turkey for lunch.

We have 64 nationalities over here and maybe 100+ Americans, so they put a thanksgiving lunch on.
