Happy Thanksgiving! I’m thankful for the supportive, yet slightly insane (and occasionally totally twisted) community I belong to here at the SDMB!

So, What are you giving thanks for this year?

I’m thankful that our financial problems are slowly getting better. And, as always, I’m thankful for my wonderful, thoughtful, caring husband.

Just back from an awesome steak dinner at my brother’s place. We pulled into his driveway to find Tank, the family turkey, standing in the way. He stood there staring at us for a second, and then turn and ran off as fast as he could, as if he had just realized “Oh shit! Was that _today_?!?”

Happy Thanksgiving, all!

I hope all of you have had a great day. Mine’s been pretty OK, except for bad news about a favorite TV show. OTOH, if that’s my biggest problem, I’m doing pretty well.

An old guy called his son and said “Your mother and I are getting a divorce. We just can’t stand each other anymore.”  
The son freaks and says “You can’t! You’ve been married for forty two years!”  
The dad says “There’s nothing else to do about it. We can’t even stand to look at each other.”  
“Let me call Sis” the son says. “We can work this out.”  
Sis squawks “We can’t let them do this! I’ll call.”  
She calls home and says “Don’t do a thing till we get there. We’re both hopping planes and will be there tomorrow!”  
The old man hangs up the phone and says to his wife “They’ll be here for Thanksgiving. And they’re paying their own way.”

Of course you have a family turkey. Why wouldn’t you? 🙂
