Thankful or Not?

Trump is no longer president: Thankful.

But he’s still around, and a danger to our system: Not.

I’m getting a raise from Social Security: Thankful.

But it’s because of inflation, which–mostly unjustifiably–is damaging Biden politically: Not.

I’m in Florida, and the sun is shining: Thankful.

But I’m supposed to be on vacation in Berlin: Not.

At least I didn’t have to wear a mask for 24 hours straight: Thankful.

But I’m probably going to eat a lot of nonrefundable money: Not.

I don’t have the virus, I don’t have to work anymore, and I don’t have any serious financial worries: Thankful.

That clinches it for thankful. Happy Thanksgiving!
