Happy Thanksgiving

A warm and heartfelt Thanksgiving wish to you all.

What are you thankful for today?  I know that I have much to be grateful for.  Let's see...I'm: 

• Grateful to wake up to my 12-year-old snoring away like a baby hippo while laying perpendicular to me in the bed with his foot lodged in my ribcage.

• Grateful for not having to cook.  My younger sister gets the stress of that particular joy today.   
  

• Grateful for not having to count points.  Let the feast begin!
  

• Grateful for elastic waistbands.
  

• Grateful for all the retailers who thought starting Black Friday on Thanksgiving Thursday was a good idea.  If the tryptophan does not do me in, I now get to spend my night swapping elbows in the electronics department at Walmart. 

Above all, I am beyond grateful for family, friends, health, laughter, and the readers who take the time to visit me every now and again here on this site.  So, from me to you:

May your stuffing be tasty, may your turkey plump
May your potatoes and gravy, have nary a lump
May your yams be delicious, and your pies take the prize
And may your Thanksgiving dinner, stay off your thighs!
