I love Thanksgiving!  It’s probably my favorite holiday!  I really try to make Thanksgiving a day of rest, relaxation, some good food and company, a good bottle of wine, and a day of reflection.

This is not the day that I beat myself up over all the things that I haven’t done, nor a day that I schedule tasks back-to-back.  I call a moratorium  on nagging.  There will be no regrets or head hanging.

Thanksgiving is a day to celebrate all the wonderful blessing of life:

• Family (by birth or by choice)
• Friends
• Food (I’m staying at home and cooking this year)
• Wine to accompany life’s journey
• A roof over my head and clothes on my back
• A job that allows me to travel
• And a second job that allows me to write about.it

I’m thankful for so many things this year, and my wish for you is that your Thanksgiving is as full of happiness and thanks as mine.

Happy Thanksgiving!
