Stuffed to the gills and tight as a tick are phrases that often come to mind after Thanksgiving dinner. With thirty-six people, eighteen pies, seven cans of olives, two types of stuffing, and one huge bird, Thanksgiving with my family certainly fit the bill.
In addition to being appreciative of wonderful food, I am grateful for many things in my life and the following list, in no particular order, does not even scratch the surface of the things in life I am thankful for.
· God
· My parents
· My brothers
· My pesky uncles and cousins who like to poke me in the ribs
· All the wonderful relatives who do not like to make me jump
· Meagan and Timmy
· Seeing old friends
· The McGrees
· Riley Rabbit
· Tres (the dog)
· Black Betty (my brother’s cat)
· My pickup
· Christmas music
· Pine trees
· Stars
· The color blue
· Blue jeans
· The internet (at least right now because it is working)
· Electricity
· Elk City
· Books, lots and lots of books
· House plants
· Snow
· Carroll College
· Dr. Swartout
· Mrs. Abbott
· Kate L. Turabian
· The Constitution
· The Northern Lights
