[scruffy]

I AM THANKFUL

FOR THE WIFE WHO SAYS IT'S HOT DOGS TONIGHT
BECAUSE SHE IS HOME WITH ME, NOT WITH SOMEONE ELSE.

FOR THE TEENAGER WHO IS COMPLAINING ABOUT DOING
DISHES, BECAUSE THAT MEANS SHE IS AT HOME & NOT ON
THE STREETS.

FOR THE TAXES THAT I PAY, BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT
I AM EMPLOYED.

FOR THE MESS TO CLEAN AFTER A PARTY, BECAUSE IT
MEANS THAT I HAVE BEEN SURROUNDED BY FRIENDS.

FOR THE CLOTHES THAT FIT A LITTLE TOO SNUG,
BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE ENOUGH TO EAT.

FOR MY SHADOW THAT WATCHES ME WORK, BECAUSE IT
MEANS I AM OUT IN THE SUNSHINE.

FOR A LAWN THAT N! EEDS MOWING, WINDOWS THAT NEED
CLEANING, AND GUTTERS THAT NEED FIXING, BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE A HOME.

FOR ALL THE COMPLAINING I HEAR ABOUT THE
GOVERNMENT, BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT WE HAVE
FREEDOM OF SPEECH.

FOR THE PARKING SPOT I FIND AT THE FAR END OF
THE PARKING LOT, BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM CAPABLE
OF WALKING AND THAT I HAVE BEEN BLESSED WITH
TRANSPORTATION.

FOR MY HUGE HEATING BILL, BECAUSE IT MEANS I AM WARM.

FOR THE LADY BEHIND ME IN CHURCH THAT SINGS OFF
KEY, BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT I CAN HEAR.

FOR THE PILE OF LAUNDRY AND IRONING, BECAUSE IT
MEANS I HAVE CLOTHES TO WEAR.
FOR WEARINESS AND ACHING MUSCLES AT THE END OF
THE DAY, BECAUSE IT MEANS I HAVE BEEN CAPABLE OF
WORKING HARD.

FOR THE ALARM THAT GOES OFF IN THE EARLY MORNING
HOURS, BECAUSE IT MEANS THAT I AM ALIVE.

AND FINALLY.......FOR TOO MUCH E-MAIL, BECAUSE
IT MEANS I HAVE FRIENDS WHO ARE THINKING OF ME.
BUT MOST OF ALL........I AM THANKFULL FOR YOU!!!!!

SEND THIS TO SOMEONE YOU CARE ABOUT . . . I JUST DID
