Nothing To Be Thankful For

So today is Thanksgiving and I’ve not got a fucking thing to be thankful for.

Honestly I’m kinda pissed that I even woke up today, but I’m here, so I have to do this.

When your wife cheats on you and gets engaged to another man it kind of takes the joy out of things and doesn’t leave much to be thankful for!?

Yeah making food, but nothing I want. Wife and kids (well they’re adults now, but I still call them kids) live in the house and were supposed to put stuff on grocery list for Thanksgiving dinner and me being the chef am going to make it of course. I went shopping, got the stuff, I didn’t put anything on the list at all, I don’t want anything, I don’t have much of an appetite really, haven’t been eating much.

Anyway yeah making Thanksgiving dinner, fun-fun but nothing to be thankful for.

Happy Thanksgiving everyone!
