Thanksgiving!

I love Thanksgiving!  I love the family-togetherness, lovely meal, prayers, expressions of thankfulness, shopping, and that it's one step closer to Christmas!

Imagine trying to get young children excited about it (if you haven't had to do it already).  They're like "Woo-hoo.  We eat dinner everyday."  LOL!

Maybe I should start some new family traditions this year for this special day.  Thanksgiving isn't mandatory, but it is FUNdatory, lol!

I am so thankful for my family.  Each one is a special, unique, priceless gift.  I wouldn't trade any one of them for anything!  I am thankful for my house - my home - that no on can take away!  I am thankful for my stinky dog, even with her fleas, anxiety, and "other" problems.  LOL

I am NOT thankful for sports - football in particular.  I've said it before but I'll say it again - I hate football like Al Qaeda hates America!...  Well, if it brings joy to others I guess I can be tolerant....  Peace be to you, fans!  (P.S. College basketball is also of the devil!)

I wish I could give something more at this season, but sometimes you just have to receive and say, "Thanks!"
