I got into my band this year, and have improved musically and internally 10 fold. Having that feeling of a third (TB is my second) family is great.

Happy thanksgiving TB!

Thankful for my family and that all are healthy and gainfully employed. Nice to see the Dow over 10,000, I pray for and expect our troops to come home quickly.

Family and friends, and the start of a great career and many great friendships. Also have to be thankful for my health and the health of those around me.

My wife's and my Prosperity/not living paycheck to paycheck. It's not much, but we don't require much,...we are simple folk. We both have decent jobs and make enough to pay the bills (not having cable helps), put food on the table, clothes on our backs and gas in the car as well as set some aside for splurges here and there (I'm developing a nasty FX pedal habit and my wife's addiction is boots).

I'm thankful for this....


Yeah it's a material possession, but it's my link to responsibility and adulthood. @ 14 years old,...it's well taken care of and we didn't need to go into debt for it. I haven't owned a car in four years and the cars I used to own were bad buying decisions,...meaning pieces of junk. It gets me back and forth to work and let's me make my deliveries (IE makes me money,...$.58 a mile).

And as always the usual,...Friends and Family,...my gifts and talents.
