Happy Thanksgiving
In the spirit of the holiday, my clan gathered (all three of us as the husband had to work) and ate too much, watched "Two Towers" (the extended version) and fed our respective animals entirely too much turkey skin.
I have a long list of things to be thankful for, including the usual and more honorable things one could mention (a good marriage, nice home, steady job, loving family) but instead will list the following:
1. dental floss
2. dachshunds and pugs even when they snore and have gas from too much turkey
3. Mario Kart Double Dash
4. wine
5. Kiehl's lip balm
6. fireplaces
7. Johnny Cash's 16 Greatest Hits cd
8. sheep skin lined slippers
9. down duvets
10. ice cream
11. email abuse at work
12. the novels of Elinor Lipmann
13. my rowing machine
14. footrubs
15. hot showers
16. new shoes
17. my husband giving up pleated pants
18. triple-bladed razors
19. Christmas lights
20. and of course Diaryland
Have a good and safe holiday everyone.
