I get so excited posting in the It's Just Thursday, MKF! thread (the very bestest of threads) and sometimes forget we have this thread, too. As I said, this is a weird year but there is still so much to be thankful for. I work from home full time now, so does mrs. gorn, and I'm thankful for the time I get to spend my family each and every day. I've never spent so much time with my wife & kids ... COVID is a terrible thing, but the time it's given me with them is a blessing. We have work, we're healthy, my family is good, mrs. gorn's family is good, and at least the four of us all together. How can I not be thankful?
One other thing to be thankful for - my brother in law & his wife are expecting their first child! This is fantastic news, as my wife's side of the family in Japan has no grandchildren except for our daughters, who pre-COVID they were lucky to at least see once a year. Now they'll have another one they can see all the time. And my brother in law is such a great guy, so good with kids, this is long overdue.
If you don't have Thanksgiving in your country and you're reading this, take a quick minute to be thankful for something in your life. We should all do this more often.
I spent most of my money on liquor and women,
The rest I wasted.
