i am thankful...no, really i am.

ok, i bitch...alot.  which does not mean i am ungrateful for or blind to my many blessings.

just taking a minute out of my rantings to say that.  i really do know that i am blessed...i have an amazing and supportive family - immediate, extended, in-lawed, out-lawed...all of them.  i have an incredible assortment of friends - close, far away, real, imagined, whatever.  i have my health ( i know blahddy blah blah...but it's true).  i have had and continue to have love, encouragement, acceptance and support at every turn of my life.  i am one of the lucky ones, in so many ways and i want to thank God for the life i have been given...it's had it's trials, it's had it's tribulations (does anybody really even know what a tribulation is?) and it's had it's joys and successes.

really truly i could not ask for more. probably i will, of course, but my point is that i don't have to - i could die today and have lived, loved and experienced more than enough than one silly redneck girl could ever hope for.

peace and relaxation to you and all that you love, enjoy your day of thanks and hey...go packers, raiders, broncos and brett favre (sorry fleck, no can vikqueens do - MUAH)!

Okay, I have to tell you that YOU are one of the most wonderful things I'm especially thankful for this year. That my long lost friend is back in my life and we can be a couple of old broads together, sharing our hearts and souls. Because I feel I can with you. Blessings? Yes, like you I have many. And YOU are one of them.
Happy Thanksgiving kind girl!
