I have a 3 week old son

Multiple vaccines at 95% effectiveness.

Family can ride this out indefinitely

Son seems none the worse for wear because of it. I realize that’s not typical.

Things I'm thankful for:

• My mortality
• Electronic shifting on my road bike
• The lambda calculus (cf. my avatar)

Hey, I didn't know! Congrats! Did you post any photos?

A great family and two adorable dogs visiting. Nice to have critters in the house.

I'm thankful for my family, their health, and for my job and the people that make up the corporation. Lots of decent people surrounded me my whole life. Also thankful my dogs are healthy.

You lot.

I forgot one thing.

I’m thankful for Klaus’s mortality.

I’m thankful that sound can’t travel from Baden-Württemburg to the USA

Nope! I try to keep my kids photos offline, but thanks!

But I can travel from BW to the USA (Corona notwithstanding). You are not safe.

I’m thankful for many of things I encounter here and the diversity thereof.

[Friday]

Thankful for many of the things already mentioned. But also for-

my 91 yo mother being relatively healthy and active.
my husband, who takes such good care of us.

[kluurs]

Thankful for my life and the friends I have.
The wisdom and humor I find here
For the joys found in the arts and in the world at large
For a semblance of good health

Spoken like the father of a teenager

[taiwan_girl]

Thankful for everything that I have when I realize that so so many people are less fortunate than I.

And to all the friends here, those who I met and those who have yet to meet.

[Axtremus]

A Thanksgiving meal that is more appropriately portioned. It’s probably the first Thanksgiving meal in my adult memory where I did not eat too much.

In hind sight, for all my life to date I do not remember having to starve. That is probably sufficient reason to be thankful.

[Mik]

Lamb shanks are awesome. Nice dinner.

Somehow I never end up eating too much on Thanksgiving. Just don't like that feeling of being stuffed.

[MainerMikeBrown]

I am thankful for:

My good physical and mental health.

That I live in Maine, which I think is a nice place to live.

My Thanksgiving Day yesterday went well.

We didn't have power outages around here yesterday, as I thought we might since we had freezing rain here yesterday morning.

My car hasn't had any mechanical issues in a long time.

And more.

[Mik]

@MainerMikeBrown sometimes the things we take for granted are great blessings.
