I'm thankful that I'm not consumed with hatred, and I can avoid those who are are... and that I can turn off the stupid TV. I'm thankful for kind, loving people. I'm thankful I'm fairly healthy. I'm thankful mosquitoes are mostly dead. I wouldn't mind having the holiday tied in with NA day, but I like having more holidays, not fewer, and I love the season's colors and smells, and the wild turkeys flocking up and foraging en masse. October has enough events, and November needs something to balance the impending snow-and-ice season.
