giving thanks

Happy Thanksgiving.

I'm remembering today how hard it is during the holidays for people who don't have families or who are estranged from their parents or other relatives.

And I'm giving thanks for the blessings in my life: a job, a home, good friends, health. I'm also grateful for my Netflix queue, three new tires on my car, & a refrigerator filled with fruit... But that's not very "thanksgivingy", so I'll leave those things for another day.
