Okay, it's that time of year...and my readership seems to be dwindling down to nothing, but here goes:
What I'm thankful for, 2006
* I'm thankful for my blog readers, especially the peeps that comment, because that makes it more interesting. But I'm thankful for the lurkers, too.
* I'm thankful for my new work laptop, and that I was able to connect to my office via the free wi-fi at Panera bread....where I also just so happened to pick up yummy lunch.
* I'm thankful for my new bowling ball and Steelers bowling bag.
* I'm thankful for all of my friends, even the moons (you know who you are)
* I'm thankful I have children who are so independent, they can get up, get themselves ready for school and not think it's weird that they haven't seen or heard me at all in the morning. So much so that when Alex comes to the door and says "I'm going out to the car, mom" - he has NO IDEA I'm still in BED because I incorrectly reset my alarm clock after my darling husband unplugged it because he didn't know how to turn it off.
*I'm thankful that I live in the boonies where speed limits are seemingly optional so I can race him to school on mornings like I previously mentioned.
* I'm thankful for muscle relaxers, anti-inflammatories and physical therapists (yes, even the sadistic ones) - for making my shoulder a better place.
* I'm thankful for Principessa, Dry Creek, Robert Mondavi and King Estate, for perpetually making wine that I love.
* But mostly? Mostly I'm thankful that I'm sitting at my desk at my job, where I receive a paycheck, writing a silly list of things I'm thankful for, because my life is truly blessed, and I have room to make jokes. I'm fortunate enough to have a loving happy, healthy family and I'm surrounded by friends whom I love.
Happy Thanksgiving, yo!

And let me add Titus Old Vine Zinfandel as the wine that I'm very thankful for. Truly the nectar of the gods if you like zin. (And I mean real zinfandel, none of that white zin stuff.)
Of course, I'm thankful for the reading pleasure you, Bumps and Steve C. provide me, too.
Right now I'd be thankful for 3:05!! Wow, are the kids wound up and totally silly!! Eight period I lost it and simply threw the assignment at them and said here, do it yourself!@*%73$$$$#@@ The truck driver in me almost came out! I guess I'll have to reteach on Monday.
Have a great Thanksgiving and may the bowling gods watch over you!
