Thursday Thirteen - 13 Reasons to be Thankful




Yes, I know it's a cliche but it's Thanksgiving, which is good day for cliches, thankful thoughts, good food and football


My Beloved - 10 years and counting and she continues to make my heart sing


My girls - all grown up, college graduates and on their own in careers they enjoy


The Internet - it gives me friends, a business and shopping from my couch


My job - while I don't like getting up in the morning, I very much enjoy it when I get there.


My Parents - who decided on their own to sell their house and downsize.


Our House - It's been 7 years and I love it as much as I did when we moved in


My Bookselling Friends - both my actual and my cyber ones


Thrift Stores - whose wares allow me to resell at a 200% mark up


The USPS - I couldn't run my business without them.


Gizmos and Gadgets -Digital cameras, Media Scouter, Cell Phones, Tivo and more


Masterpiece Theater - A bit of enlightenment in a cultural wasteland


NetFlix - so I can enjoy the above while packing books


Health Insurance - I may gripe about it but at least I have it.

Hi! I'm new to T13 and you're my first visit since I've joined. That's a good list. I'm afraid I wasn't quite as succinct, but I suppose there are many ways to go about it.
