Seems like most of us do a lot of whinging and/or ranting on our blogs … but as the day before Thanksgiving comes to a close, I want to start work on my list of things for which I am thankful.
- I bought my own home again this year … sure, I only have $5075 in equity, but I’m not wasting money on rent anymore.
- I’m old enough that if the Defense Department does reinstitute the draft, I don’t have to worry about having to go fight in a war I don’t believe in.
- I have a good job with a decent paycheck, and good benefits … and even though my 401(k) took a hit this year, the lower market means my company match will acquire me more shares than I would get in a higher market.
- I have a family that loves me, even though I’m not the easiest person to be around.
- Last but certainly not least, I have good friends, both old and new, who all seem to genuinely care in one way or another.
Thank you Mom & Ralph, Kim, Ben & Doris, Geraly & D.J., Clem & JEM, Steve & Amy, Ryan, Dan & Karen, Kristen, Christine, Julie, Art, Richard, Scottie, Carol, Darrell, Theresa, Dayna, Jorge, and Jennie. I just hope I haven’t forgotten anyone.
Happy Thanksgiving, everyone …



Hey flahute!
Great on the house!!
And by the way I think your a great guy! Yes I mean… and I am sober!
OK the last line is supposed to say “Yes I mean it and I am sober”
Lord I need to do spell/grammar check
Oh hey quick question do you really like
Breckenridge Brewery’s Hefe Proper? That’s some good stuff!!
I’d be drinking one right now, except it’s only 9:22 in the morning … I figure I should at least wait until double-digits.
And it’s a condo/apartment, not a house … but it’s mine … and the bank’s.
happy thanksgiving sheffield. and don’t worry, as soon as i see the new clothes… i’ll send the proofs your way.
have a good ride.
Rock On Flahute!
You’re pretty much ok for a white boy.
