I Am thankful for:

The clothes that fit a little too snug 
because it means I have enough to eat.

My shadow who watches me work 
because it means I am out in the sunshine.

A lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing 
because it means I have a home.

The spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
because it means I am capable of walking.

All the complaining I hear about our government 
because it means we have freedom of speech.

The lady behind me in church who sings off key 
because it means that I can hear.

The piles of laundry and ironing 
because it means my loved ones are nearby.

My huge heating bill 
because it means I am warm.

The alarm that goes off in the early morning hours 
because it means that I'm alive.

Weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day 
because it means I have been productive!
