7 days til turkey day!

Let's here what you have to be thankful for!

Above and beyond EVERYTHING, its my wife and kids.
Especially my wife because without her no telling where I'd have ended up, most likely dead because she brought into my life love, compassion and caring and I wouldn't have 3 great kids without her.

My health.
Although not as good as it used to be, I'm starting to miss some words, and can't leave the house without reading glasses, I'm holding myself together.

Her folks.
If not for them we'd surely be renting an apt with the cost what it is here in L.A to rent a house.
They have been a very important part of raising our kids.

All of you here and the other GW forums.
You all have kept me going many times with your funny antics and comraderie.
I reserve a special place in my heart for you all.

I'm thankful I still have work, knock on wood!

Well...the boss keeps tellin me I should be thankful that I have a job.... :whip:
But...I'm thankful for most of the things Dan said..the wifey, who also saved me from an absolute path to destruction, and gives me daily the only reason I need to keep on keepin on. I be thankful for our friends and family(here, and other places), and mostly Thankful that I woke up on this side of the dirt this morning.

I am also greatly Thankful for all of the Military men & women all over the world who sacrifice daily for me to be able to read & write in English... :thanks: :clapping:

Guess there isn't so much for folks to be thankful this year judging by the replys.

I know this year has been tough for most but I don't dwell on things like that.
Instead when I'm down I think of all the people that have it so much harder. This helps me pull myself up because I firmly believe I'm responsible for the condition I'm in.
Sure things can be better and easier but they can also be much worse.

I'm a bit surprised at the low posting not only in this thread but in all the forums. I'm thankful for every day I can wake and move. I've my bikes and my bills get paid. Sadly most family get togethers are a thing of the past but even that has advantages. Happy thanksgiving to all.

Sorry for not posting eairler but I have been unable to sit (in front of the puter ) for any length of time for the past 2 months. That being said, first and formost I am thankful for my God, who has kept me above the dirt all these years. Then for my wife who had motovated me (kicked pulled and pushed) in the most supportive way for the past 40+ years and especially the past 2 months. Then there are my 3 children who have stood by me even though for over 20 years I drug them on motorcycle outings with clubs, both family and racing, reguardless of the weather. And last but not least I am thankful for my Grandchildren and Great Grandchildren. who I expect to spoil the h--- out of. Now that things are flowing again I have soooooo much to be thankful for. May god knock on your door today as he has on mine.HAPPY THANKSGIVING

Sorry about not getting to post sooner...but we headed out of town to Virgina to visit with my eldest daughter and her family (with our two wonderful grand children!) and my middle daughter (my long lost Goldwing mechanic!) came up from Florida and we all met and had a wonderful family Thanksgiving together! :clapping:

Yep...we are thankful to have been able to spend some real family time together since we are not going to see each other at Christmas. :beg:

My oldest daughter (24) is pregnant with her third! :clapping:
My middle daughter (20) is now working full time in Florida! :clapping:
My youngest daughter (14) is preparing for a 5 nation tour of Europe next summer! :clapping:
