96 . . .

i probably shouldn't do this but i'm going to anyway:

i am thankful for the money to be able to go grocery shopping and a kitchen in which to cook.

i am thankful for the water and electricity that allows my washing machine and dryer to clean my clothes.  heck, i am thankful i don't have to pound them on a rock down by the river . . . thanks to miss merrup, my third grade teacher, for that tidbit. and of course i am thankful for the clothes on my back.  and soap and clean water and a tub.  bubble.

i am thankful for the home in which i sleep safely every night.

and for the car i use to noodle around town.

and for savings that allow me to retire.

and for my good health.

and for friends who carry me through.

and for kidlet who brings me great happiness.

and most of all for the memories of the 9TS.

being thankful makes me happy.  so there!
