I'm thankful we slaughtered all those pesky Native Americans. Taking up all the good land ... ;)

No but being serious here, i'm thankful for my family, my friends, my satellite dish. ;) And most importantly, internet porn. Gives us hours of enjoyment without asking for anything in return. ;)
 
I am thankful that I had a tremendous year, graduated college, found a job, and have an adventure waiting for me at the start of next year. I am also thankful that I am still healthy, and so is my family. I am grateful that I have people who love me both near and far, and that those who are far now won't be that way forever.

I am also thankful that Chuck is coming back soon. I like that show.
 
I won't really be thankful until the first year I am thankful I didn't kill myself when I was fifteen when I had the chance. Still not there yet, but maybe in a few years.:sigh:
 
I am thankful that I possess the ability to spell.

So glad you posted that so I wasn't tempted to. :lol:

I'm glad you didn't, if that counts! :)

I'm thankful for my health, my family, and the many wonderful people in my life. Also for the opportunity to go back and rediscover the joys of education and the possibilities I feel have opened up to me.
 
I'm thankful for life, the Universe and everything. I'm thankful for the Arts & Sciences. I'm thankful for all the good people in the world who, though they may be quieter, far outnumber those who labor on behalf of entropy and primitivism. I'm thankful that today is better than yesterday and tomorrow will be better than today. :bolian:

I won't really be thankful until the first year I am thankful I didn't kill myself when I was fifteen when I had the chance. Still not there yet, but maybe in a few years.:sigh:
In the meantime, I'll be thankful for that on your behalf. ;)
 
My awesome wife and my amazing daughter. I thank God every single day for the blessings He has given me. Without Him I would be nothing.
 
This isn't the best of times for me but I'm thankful that I'm better off than a lot of other people. :(

I'm also thankful that I'm self-sufficient and that my fortunes are largely in my own hands. I'm thankful that I need not rely on the whims of a God. :techman:
 
Sometimes it's hard to be Thankful. This year has been a difficult one. I've been in pretty near constant pain or discomfort since February, dealing with a host of health problems. My mother is seriously ill but specialist after specialist is struggling to find what's wrong. She's losing her memory, her eyesight, her hair...and the PET scan her doctor ordered for the cancer she suspects my mom's insurance doesn't cover. Medical debt is weighing me down -- and there are other problems too numerous and personal to name.

However, one of my best friends just left my house an hour ago, laden with her half of the magnificent and delicious meal we cooked. I can't afford to be with my family, and she can't stand to be with hers, so we made Thanksgiving together. We played Scrabble, watched movies, and made the best apple pie. I showed her pictures of my beautiful baby nephew, born just in October, and whom I get to meet at Christmas. I told her about the crazy fry bread cooking lesson I did with my young students for their Thanksgiving celebration yesterday; it's wonderful to have a job that guarantees at least 20 hugs a day.

I am Thankful today.

TSQ, I hope 2010 brings you and your mom a better year. Best wishes.

I'm sorry to hear that. I hope things turn around for you in 2010. :(

How the hell can a PET scan to rule out cancer not be covered? Has anybody called the insurance company to follow up on this?

Thanks. I'm trying to do whatever is in my power to make it so.

We appealed once and she was denied again. Her doctor is appealing again, and we're hopeful. The thinking is that she has a very early stage cancer that is causing paraneoplastic syndrome. She was able to get a CT but it's not sensitive enough to detect smaller cancers.
