Happy Thanksgiving

Today, my daughter is playing for the last time in Nashua High North marching band. The 4th annual Turkey bowl is under way; the local high schools, the Titans of the North and the Panthers of south, compete for the city of Nashua. At the end of the first quarter the Panthers are up 6-0.

My wife left to watch the game, and I am home making a feast watching on Channel 99. Being by myself, I am left with quite a bit of time to stop and think about what this holiday means to me, so I thought it would be nice to say my thanks to everyone in my life who made it possible for me to write my blog..

I want to say thank you to my family, starting with my wife for putting up with my passion for politics and supporting my side project. Thank you to my daughter for challenging my thoughts, and sharing my passion. The two ladies in my life are the major reasons I can bring my thoughts to you. Thank you.

Thank you to my parents for molding me into the adult I have become. It was a long tough road, but you stuck it out and showed me the way to lead proper life. Thank you.

I would like to thank my friend Scott for beating me into submission and making me start my blog. Thank you for convincing me. Thank you for telling me I should write my thoughts for others to share. You are a great editor, web advisor, and friend. Thank you.

Thank you for the United States Military. Jennifer Horn says something to the effect of, "Please say a prayer for the good men and women of the United States military who everyday would give up there life for yours." (Check out Jennifer's Thanksgiving day post) I second that statement, and her Thanksgiving post. Thank you to the troops for the great sacrifice you make for us everyday and today. I can not explain to you how much I am in debt to the Military for the incredible job you have volunteered for. You are all an inspiration to me. Thank you to all of the men and women who are fighting for our country.

Thank you to all my friends for talking with me and debating topics. I know I am very headstrong and passionate, but you have all stuck to your guns and made me rethink my positions. This has lead to a greater understanding of the topics that I write about. You have all balanced my views, and helped me with the empathy I tend to lack. You are all great friends, and I could not wish for a better group of friends. I know that if I need you, you will be there. I will always be here for you. Thank you.

Thank you God for my life. It has been a rollercoaster ride, and is never bland. Thank you God for all those in my life, and all the blessings you have bestowed on my life.

Thank you to everyone for all you have done. I love you all, my family and friends. Thank you for you love, and everything you have added to my life.

Thank you for being a part of my life and reading my thoughts,

God bless.

Yes, and sometimes its very hard to listen!!! Only kidding. I am glad you found something that you are passionate about. And I like talking politics, too. (Did I just admit that? You weren't supposed to know that. Joking)
