Thanksgiving Day in Canada

Happy Thanksgiving Day Canada
*
Happy Columbus Day U.S.A.
*
*
Here is a list of things we should all be thankful for:
*
For the husband who is on the sofa being a couch potato
Because he is home with me and not out at the bars.
*
For the wife who says it's Hot Dogs for dinner tonight
Because she is home with me and not out with someone else.
*
For the teenager who is complaining about doing the dishes
Because it means she is at home, not on the streets.
*
For the taxes I pay
Because it means I am employed.
*
For the mess to clean after a party
Because it means I have been surrounded by friends.
*
For the clothes that fit a little too snug
Because it means I have enough to eat.
*
For my shadow that watches me work
Because it means I am out in the sunshine.
*
For a lawn that needs mowing, windows that need cleaning and gutters that need fixing
Because it means I have a home.
*
For all the complaining I hear about the Government
Because it means we have freedom of speech.
*
For the parking spot I find at the far end of the parking lot
Because it means I am capable of walking and have been blessed with transportation.
*
For my huge heating bill
Because it means I am warm.
*
For the lady behind me in Church who sings off key
Because it means I can hear.
*
For the pile of laundry and ironing
Because it means I have clothes to wear.
*
For weariness and aching muscles at the end of the day
Because it means I have been capable of working hard.
*
For the alarm that goes off in the early morning hours
Because it means I am alive.
