Happy Thanksgiving.
(sorry, for the two word reply;thought it would be an exception)
I'm in the same boat. I have so many thing that I'm thankful for that it would take a day to list them all. One thing though that I'm thankful for each day is to wake up to another wonderful day and thank God for the opportunity that God gave me to live the life that I've had.

Happy Turkey Day, Tatted. And to all the other members, a like greeting. As Paula Deen says, I am thankful to be on the right side of the dirt, as I have had so many times in my life I could be on the wrong side. I am thankful to live in the greatest country in the world, even with all it's problems. I heard a Merle Haggard song the other day that sums it up for me, "Walkin' on The Fightin' Side of Me." I still think Alec Baldwin is a sh*tbird. He stated in the first Bush election that if Bush got elected, he was leaving the country. Well, Bush got re-elected and Baldwin is still shooting his liberal, commie-loving mouth off every chance he gets. Gee, you just can't trust anyone's word anymore.

I'll keep my freedom, my guns and my money. You can keep THE CHANGE.
An armed society is a polite society.
Amen, yes, I agree, and you betcha to all that everyone has said. I'm thankful for my family, my new hubby, my son, my kin, my friends, my life, my home, our safely, and I'm thankful for everyday that I awake and arise, and thankful for everyone who fights for those things, military, para-military, and civilian. I'm thankful I'm a vet, thankful for being alive, and thankful for this country and all who fought and still fight for it's freedoms. Long live the USA! Happy Turkey Day everyone!
I know that I started this thread so that everyone could say what they're thankful for, but I ended up having to work on Thanksgiving. Don't get me wrong, I'm thankful that I'm working and am able to provide for myself during these tough economic times, but I would have gladly traded those six hours I spent at work to spend time with my family.
Any society that would give up a little liberty to gain a little security will deserve neither and lose both.
