I'm thankful we're able to provide my stepkids with a home while their mom is homeless and forced to bunk at a friend's house with her demon child.
Also thankful we didn't need to take in the demon child.

I am thankful for what I have learned this past year and for those who provided the lessons - both the good and the bad.
I am thankful for being able to learn from my mistakes. I am thankful for those who stand by me - even when I'm more than a little nuts. |

I'm thankful that the church that I work for still pays me even when I mess up badly playing for them (I'm still not very good, but they pay me anyway, I'm soo appreciative of that)

i'm thankful for those moment when my sisters pop in on me when I'm doing my homework and they do something that makes me laugh. it really helps relieve stress.
(my sister came in with a balloon and we took turns breathing in some of the helium and talking in high-pitched voices, I sounded like when Eezma turned into a kitty in "The Emporer's New Groove" LOL it was pretty funny)

I'm thankful for this thread. It's makes me take a step back and really think about all the great things that I have. Like whipped cream. And pickles. And friends who don't care about the pickle breath and come to share my whipped cream.

I'm thankful for lots of things, but particularly for the two squirrels having sex on my deck right in front of me.
Awesome. |

The pies are spilling over in the oven, their juices are burning and smoking up the house. I'm thankful I baked them today and have 3 days to air the house out before my Thanksgiving guests arrive.

I'm thankful that I was only knocked off the ladder and not electrocuted. And for any AW members living in the New Orleans metropolitan area, I apologize for what I yelled after my shocking experience.

I'm thankful for opportunity to read some of these posts and laugh my @$$ off. And for caffeine. I'm thankful for caffeine. And chocolate. And My Little Pony gummies. And I'm thankful for the fact that I have so much food in my pantry, that I'm gonna have one heck of a party. Some day. And invite lots of people. I think.

This thread. Now, having contemplated all I have to be thankful for, I can spend more time today eating and watching footbal.
![]() I hope and pray that all AW members have much to be thankful for and have a blessed day. |

I'm thankful for my family. They've never once treated my writing as unimportant or stupid. Now that things are moving along for me they're very excited.
It almost makes you forget they're family
