Being thankful: women 312, men 0

There seem to be a lot of posts by women on thankfulness, but not so many by the guys.

Just yesterday, Sue Bohlin posted on “Turning Thanksgiving Inside Out” at the Tapestry blog.

“It’s not too hard to come up with a list of reasons to grump about the Thanksgiving holiday:
 
•    Lots of work in the kitchen
•    Lots of cleaning to do
•    Lots of cooking to do
•    Lots of buying food to do
•    Spending time with family where the worst in people easily spills out
•    Crowds in the stores as we prepare
•    The stores already have their Christmas decorations out—like since Halloween
•    Too much football on TV
•    Too much food
 
But to cultivate a biblical mindset, we can take this list and turn it inside out to reveal the embarrassment of riches and lavishment of blessings that are attached to each item by invoking our own personal thanksgiving:
 
Lots of work in the kitchen: Thank You, Lord, that I have a fully functioning kitchen! Thank You for my stove and my oven and my refrigerator and my sink and my counters and my storage of my many many kitchen items.”

And at Rebecca Writes, the womenfolk have been expressing their gratitude on a daily basis!
 
What’s up, fellas?
