I'm taking some time off for some much needed rest and recuperation. A quick trip to the big city where the high point will be seeing my granddaughter. Thanksgiving with family and friends with all the preparation will follow, starting on Thursday and going until Saturday. Maybe a quick movie or ride to see the festival of lights in a nearby town. One place you won't find me is shopping on black Friday, there isn't a deal out there that could get me in the middle of all that greed and crazy!!!! I love the holidays but they sure do get hectic.
Remember as you're stuffing yourself with turkey and pie to give thanks for the food you have. When your kid or mother gets on your last nerve give thanks that you have family nearby to celebrate with. When the house is a disaster give thanks that you have a home to live in. Most of all give thanks for all the blessings in your life and try to become a blessing for someone else. We live in a scary world that gets uglier everyday. Sometimes it's hard to find things to be grateful for. Take a minute, put down your phone, game or Ipad turn off the TV and really look at all you have and how rich you really are (if you think I'm talking money just quit reading now). In this country even the poorest among us have more than most people in the rest of the world we should never take it for granted.
HAPPY THANKSGIVING
