PookieMD's Blog: Where Physicians Learn About the Business of Medicine

I love Thanksgiving, because it is a holiday with all the right things.  It has family, food, football and some time off to boot. It’s not horribly commercialized, and no one gets all upset about gifts and decorations.  What’s not to like?

So, here is what I am thankful for this year:

1. I have a job that allows me to work more when I need it.
2. My family (and me!) is healthy.
3. I have a home to live in, surrounded by nice neighbors and great friends.
4. I have a great kid, and a loving husband.
5. My furnace works.
6. I have a big back yard with a hammock and rose bushes.
7. The docs I work with are amazingly kind and real.
8. My subaru has 200,000+ miles and keeps on going!
9. I have food to eat.
10. On Thursday, I will break bread with family and friends, and thank God for the freedom I enjoy every day.

Please remember to say a blessing for all those young men and women in our armed forces that serve so that we may enjoy all the riches this country has to offer!  And while you are at it, say one for the police, fire department, and of course, all the doctors and nurses that are working while we are eating.

God Bless you all! Happy Thanksgiving!
