I love Thanksgiving!!

I can't help but have the Adam Sandler Thanksgiving song in my head right now. I can't remember all the words. Do you ever just part of a song going through your head? The part I can remember is "gobble, gobble, giggle, I wish turkey only cost a nickle." Then the part at the end where he sings "I love Thanksgiving."

So in honor of the day, I would like to say what I am thankful for. My quote board at work right now has something like "Thanksgiving, afterall was not meant to be shut up in one day." I can't remember the person who said that right now. I love quotegarden.com for good quotes. That is where I got that one.

Here is my list, in no particular order:
1. My family. I am very thankful for my family, I know I can call them anytime. Even if I do not live close to them I can still feel their love from far away. They are in my heart always.
2. My job. I am very thankful to have a good job and good people to work with. In times like these I am very thankful to have a job to go to when so many people do not have a job.
3. For each day. It does not always work, but I try to be happy for each day. To watch the sun come up and to get another chance to make things better. I work on this all the time (the attitude part).
4. My friends. I am very thankful to have good friends. Friends can be the family you pick for yourself. I learn alot from other people in my life and for that I am grateful.
5. My health. I am thankful to be in good health. Working in health insurance you get to find out a lot about what others are going through and it really makes me thankful that I am healthy.
6. My parents. I know I already said family but I am very thankful for my parents. They still sacrifice so much for our family that I had to list them separately.
7. My house. I am very thankful to have a nice place to live. So many people do not have this and I need to remind myself how great this is.
8. The gospel. I am thankful for how I was raised. I am thankful for the example of others in my life.
9. Good times. I am thankful to good times. They make life worth living. Spending time with famiy and friends is what it is all about.
10. To live in such a time. Living in 2009 is pretty amazing. There are so much advances in the world. I take so much of it for granted. Microwaves, lights that turn on with a touch of a button, this computer, the internet, cell phones, medical break throughs... It is all pretty amazing. Oh, I said that already, huh?

There is so much to be thankful for!!!

Happy Thanksgiving!!
