Today, I’m thankful for health. I take it for granted just about every day. It’s hard to stay healthy and I usually only notice how great it is when I’m recovering from a sickness.

Today, I’m thankful to have a car. Having a car provides me a way to get to work everyday and also travel the world. Seems small but could you imagine living without?

Today, I’m thankful for potlucks. We had a potluck at work today and I had a good time visiting with everyone in our department.

Today, I’m thankful to have a great boss. I had to get a few things done today that weren’t work related. My boss was nice enough to allow me to work from home and take care of those things.

Today, I’m thankful to have a house. So many people lost their homes in the wildfires near us. The air has been bad quality and smokey for almost a week now. I’m thankful we still have our home to go to after a long day at work.

Today, I’m thankful for new technology. I got a new monitor at work and it’s a nice 38 inch curved LG display. So far it’s been very nice to work on.

Today, I’m thankful to help others out. Beth and I took some time to feed the homeless today. There was a Thanksgiving feast. It felt good to get to know some people and help them out.

Today I’m thankful for the weekend. I enjoy having some time off of work to catch up at home.

Today, I’m thankful for the Astra theme. It’s fast, lightweight and easy to use. It’s already ready for WordPress’ Gutenberg update and working with it has been a joy. Check it out, they are having a Black Friday sale soon. You don’t want to miss it.

Today, I’m thankful for my Mom. It’s her birthday today and she turns 60. She has always set a good example for me growing up and I’ve learned a lot from her. Happy birthday Mom!

Today, I’m thankful for democracy. Everyone should go out and vote today!

I’m thankful for clean water. I have clean water at home and work. It’s a human right to have clean water but that’s not true for everyone in the world.

I’m thankful for family. You really find out how much family cares when big issues happen in life.

I’m thankful for mail-in ballots. That way I don’t have to go on stand in line to vote.
