Thanksgiving is just around the corner and there's no question that it's one of the best times of the year, especially because of the food! But Thanksgiving is also a time to be thankful for the things we have and often take for granted. So here are 50 things to grateful for right now:

1. Family

Because you need them more than anything.

2. Friends

The laughs; you need those.

3. Puppies


4. Cats

Even if you aren't a cat person, they're cute. No denying it.

5. The turkey you're about to shove in your face

6. Oh, and the stuffing too


7. The beach

Because nothing is more peaceful!

8. Fresh air

Better than breathing in swamp air.

9. Netflix

Because we all know it consumes 75% of your free time.

10. Donuts


11. Dunkin Donuts

Because you can't survive off Starbucks.

12. Football season

What else is there to do on Sundays?

13. Pizza


14. Traveling

Because we're actually able to get on a plane and go wherever our hearts desire.

15. Sunrises

Who knew the earth could create something so amazing?

16. Sunsets

A perfect end to any day.

17. The feeling you get after cleaning your room

Even though you know it'll be messy in 20 minutes, for the time being, it's the best feeling.

18. Vine (RIP)

The source of all of your hardest laughs.

19. Funny tweets

They make any day better.

They open your eyes and make you realize that some people have it worse than you.

24. Chicken nuggets

...only from McDonald's.

25. Homemade meals

Nothing gets any better.

26. Concerts

There's no better feeling.

27. Old pictures

SO many memories.

28. Tacos


29. Spaghetti and meatballs

Because they don't require as much effort as showers do.

The most relaxing feeling.

32. Being able to sleep in your own bed


33. Warm blankets

They make any day a good day.

34. Fuzzy socks

They automatically make you feel good about yourself.

35. Hot chocolate

Like coffee without all the caffeine.

36. Feeling put together

Makes any day a better day.

37. Coffee, coffee, coffee

38. Warm tea

If you don't like coffee, this is a valid substitute.

39. Hugs

40. Kisses

PDA is OK sometimes.

41. Laughs with people you love

Arguably the best thing ever.

42. Videos of gorillas acting like humans

43. New shoes

Even when you're looking down, they keep your spirits up.

44. When gas prices go down

Finally, we don't have to use our entire minimum wage paycheck to fill up

45. Seals


46. Burritos

This is just a given.

47. Funny stories

Hindsight is 20/20.

48. Your high school yearbook

What's funnier than yearbook pictures?

You may not know how to react in a situation where a co-worker does something crazy (like put your office supplies in jello) but thanks to "The Office," now you'll have an idea how to behave ifsomething like that should happen.

Here are just a few of the things that religious Office watchers can expect to learn.
