Thanks again to the Revgalblogpals for giving me something to write about.

They said:
Please tell us five things or people for which you are thankful this year.

My first thought, only Five?!?

So, OK, here goes...

1. My family-an adoring husband and a wonderful son (even though he's not perfect).

2. My health-in the overall scheme of things, I'm healthy-no major illnesses, no major aches or pains, all in all, not too shabby.

3. My extended family-blood and not- I know that no matter what, I will never have to worry about being taken care of should something awful happen.

4. Chocolate-really, those of you who can live without it, I just don't understand you, you're all freaks (but lovable freaks!!)

5. Freedom-I live in a place where I am much freer than many people in this world. It isn't a perfect place, to be sure, but it's one heck of a lot better than some other places where I could live.
