I have told this story a few times before.

While growing up, on the nights when the weather is really rotten, Mom would turn to us and make this statement.


"How would you like to be homeless tonight?"

Or

"Where would you go if you were homeless?"


I am thankful for a roof, a bed, a job (sometimes )
clothes, a car, health, my cat, where I live and the people overseas that protect my sorry arse - oh, I almost forgot.....and the fact that as long as I can keep working, I'll never know the answer to my mom's question.

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.
