Turkey day is right around the corner (and after it Thanksgiving Second Day a/k/a Black Friday, my national holiday... I adore Black Friday shopping and the time leading up to it, checking out the ad supplements, compiling a wish list...I may do more anticipating than actual buying, but I have fun).
This year I have many things for which I am thankful:
-- Good physical and mental health. This tops my list every year. I go for a walk every morning to keep fit, and then spend time playing brain games on my tablet to stay mentally active. I enjoy my retirement because I am able to do so. I am thankful I can afford health insurance, and doubly thankful for not having to use it, and even more thankful for not being on any daily medication other than vitamins.
-- I am thankful for the 485 square feet I call home. There's a lot less clutter this year because I donated many items to the local animal shelter flea market and also sold some things on Ebay. I revel in the newly open spaces in my apartment. And the extra money in my piggy bank for future fun.
-- I am thankful for another debt free year, watching my savings grow. I sleep well at night because of it.
A Happy Thanksgiving to all... see you at the mall on Black Friday!
