Margie: Edna, today is World Gratitude Day. Instead of your usual complaining why not tell about your gratitude?
For instance, I'm grateful that we have our friend, Crystal. I would like to thank her for listening to me rant about you.
Edna: I'm grateful for the self-control that prevents me from slipping alum in your oatmeal every morning.
I'm also grateful for my health. I can see, hear, and walk, and that's a daily blessing.
Margie: Well, you sure don't do any of those things well. I'm also grateful that we had no other siblings. Thank you, Mama and Daddy, for only inflicting this one moron upon me.
Of course, I'm very grateful for Cousin T. I don't know what we'd do without that boy.
Edna: I'm grateful for Cousin T, too. He's got a patient nature and a generous soul.
I'm also grateful that I'm not as mean as you are, Margie. The good Lord saw fit to give me a kind and sweet personality, everyone says so.
Margie: Edna, the good Lord gave you a lying liar nature. The only sweet about you is your sweet tooth.
I'm also grateful for Mr. Hershey. My word, what if he hadn't discovered chocolate?
Edna: Oh Lord. First of all, Mr. Hershey didn't discover chocolate, you ninny. Second of all, if YOU hadn't discovered Hershey's Kisses, maybe you'd still have all of your original teeth instead of those clickety-clack dentures.
I'm grateful for having my own room with a door that shuts and locks.

It's World Gratitude Day: Simply show someone what you are grateful for. Thank your family, friends, teacher, church, mentor, coach, boss, or heroes.
