[Elspode]

I'm thankful for my new home and my family who puts up with me while we live in it.

I'm thankful for free-thinking in the face of an often stifling culture.

I'm thankful for loving friends and broad shoulders upon which to cry.

I'm thankful for another year with a patched up heart and half of my normal guts.

I'm thankful to be gainfully employed, even if by a faceless corporation as an office drone.

I'm thankful for this incredibly beautiful 70 degree Thanksgving Day, which I was fortunate to spend with family in a beautiful place.

And, it should go without saying that I am thankful for *all* of you, my Cellar community, even those of you with whom I vehemently disagree on a regular basis.

Blessings to all of you. The bounty of the Earth is great, and we are indeed a privileged people.
