Booking Through Thursday: Thankful

Here's today's Booking Through Thursday. For the complete meme and everyone else's responses click here.

Today is Thanksgiving here in the U.S. Now, you may have noticed that the global economy isn’t exactly doing well. There’s war. Starvation. All sorts of bad, scary things going on.

So–just for today–how about sharing 7 things that you’re thankful for?

I am thankful . . .

(1) For my family and friends and their good health
(2) That after a half of century of reading, my eyes are still holding out
(3) For my newfound blogging and Twitter friends
(4) That my husband and I -- both self-employed -- still seem to be working in this scary economy
(5) That no matter how long my reading wish list gets, there are always more books
(6) That "they" can never find anything bad about coffee and caffeine
(7) For digital cameras

Happy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate it!

    Whoa, I hope my eyes will also be okay when I get older! I have quite bad eyesight now for a 20-year-old. :D

    Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family!
