Happy Thanksgiving

I am thankful for so much. I am thankful for my wonderful husband, John, my wonderful son, Andy, and his wonderful girlfriend, Ashley.

I am thankful that I was born in this great country, the USA. Nowhere else on Earth comes close to providing the most opportunities - no government test determines what we can be or do in this life.

We can live anywhere we want. We can start our own businesses, we can hang out with the people we want to hang out with, we can choose the religion we want.

It's not perfect, but our system of government is better than any other. And if any one disagrees, then go move to the country with the government you might like better and find out for yourself!

I am very thankful for everyone in my life, except maybe the people at my ex-job who felt I was too old and 'unadaptable' to work for them anymore. Phooey on them!

I am thankful for my sister, Anne, and her family. I am thankful for John's sister, Kathy, and her family.

I'm thankful for John's dad, a better father-in-law does not exist!

And I'm thankful for all 4 of my readers!

Happy Thanksgiving, everyone!

All the dishes are clean and the parents have gone home to their new condo. The games of Phase 10 are over and all is quiet.

Now to stay away from the stores tomorrow.

Yeah, JTG - but what about the ones who *know* their parentage, and it's all straight?

They're the real buzzkillz!

Uhh, maybe they come from a bad line of well-documented bad people?

(not to seem, like, eugenic, or something; I think I m'self might be on some folks' "using up oxygen" lists)

Maybe we could just agree that Mean People Suck?

And that some people are congenitally, or genetically or epigenetically mean, some were trained into meanness when young, and some stayed up late at night studying how to be mean, for extra discredit.
