Unfortunately, my busy self missed the deadline to submit a post to the Feminists Give Thanks salon over at Danine.net.  But I wanted to say that, first, you should definitely go read what my awesome feminist friends had to say over there.  And second, I wanted to spend some time musing over the things I am really thankful for before I go and eat lots of food.

This year, I am truly thankful for:

  • My family and those who are about to become my family.
  • My mom, in particular, for her help and love and faith in me.
  • My fiancé, who treats me as an equal partner (and who listens to my feminist analysis of pretty much everything… and sometimes even comments himself).
  • Living in a world in which women HELP women instead of try to tear them down.
  • Friends.  Enough said.
  • My awesome job that I love more every day and great coworkers who help me keep my sanity.
  • You, my loyal readers and commenters who keep me on my toes.
  • Food to eat and a roof over my head and clothes on my body.
  • My health and happiness overall.

This is not an exhaustive list by any means, but I think it sums up most of the major points nicely.

You are probably tired of being asked this, but what are you thankful for this year?  Share in the comments!
