I'm thankful for the daily food Upon our table spread, For meat and milk and fruit so good, For work that brings us bread.
I'm thankful for each bird that sings, For stars and waving trees, For colors which the autumn brings, All sounds and sights like these.
I'm thankful for my bed and rest, For dark when daylight ends, Of all my thanks, this is the best: For family and friends!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
=======================================
A Thanksgiving Grace
Lord, we humbly ask thy blessing On the turkey and the dressing, On the yams and cranberry jelly, And on the pickles from the deli.
Bless the apple pie and tea, Bless each and every calorie. Let us enjoy Thanksgiving dinner, Tomorrow we can all get thinner!
For all Thy help along the way, We're thankful this Thanksgiving Day. We're thankful, too, for all our dear ones, For all the far away and near ones.
Although we may be far apart, We're together in my heart. Keep us in Thy loving care, This is my Thanksgiving prayer.
P.S. If there is anyone who wishes, I could use some help with the dishes!

Sitting on the side of the highway waiting to catch speeding drivers, a State Police Officer sees a car puttering along at 22 MPH. He thinks to himself, "This driver is just as dangerous as a speeder!" So he turns on his lights and pulls the driver over. Approaching the car, he notices that there are five old ladies -- two in the front seat and three in the back-wide eyed and white as ghosts. The driver, obviously confused, says to him, "Officer, I don't understand, I was doing exactly the speed limit! What seems to be the problem?" "Ma'am," the officer replies, "you weren't speeding, but you should know that driving slower than the speed limit can also be a danger to other drivers." "Slower than the speed limit? No sir, I was doing the speed limit exactly ... twenty-two miles an hour!" the old woman says a bit proudly. The State Police officer, trying to contain a chuckle explains to her that "22" was the route number, not the speed limit. A bit embarrassed, the woman grinned and thanked the officer for pointing out her error. "But before I let you go, Ma'am, I have to ask... Is everyone in this car OK? These women seem awfully shaken and they haven't muttered a single peep this whole time," the officer asks. "Oh, they'll be all right in a minute officer. We just got off Route 119."
