Happy Thanksgiving!

"The best way to pay for a lovely moment is to enjoy it."
--Richard Bach


"Wake at dawn with a winged heart and give thanks for another day of loving."
--Kahlil Gibran


I just want to celebrate another day of livin'
I just want to celebrate another day of life
Well, I can't be bothered with sorrow
And I can't be bothered with hate, no, no
I'm using up my time by feeling fine, every day

The morning started with leftover crepes I had made a couple of days ago and enjoying the beauty outside my window of the day just starting. Actually, I got up right when Macy's parade was ending...stayed up a little late.


The afternoon...man,the turkey was super tender and juicy...and with gravy, why in the world did I wait a whole year! Sweet potato casserole was slammin'. Mom did a great first attempt at the dressing and a guest brought a bucketful of brown rice and mushrooms spread out on a huge beautiful silver platter.

Aunt Karen played her piano while I felt like I could easily doze off on her soft and comfy couch.

Baby cousin Jordi was the cutest watching baby Einstein videos on a flat screen 5 times as big as he is.

My wife was sick but still did a bang up job on her makeup and looked the prettiest... however, the Victoria's Secret girls weren't too shabby either, nyuck, nyuck (ha).

Finished the night with a hot ham and cheese roll, green been casserole and hot tea while watching Paul McCartney in New York. Not sure how late I'll be up, but I just might get me one of those baked pears, too.

God bless! I hope that you all had a great day and someone to spend it with. May your holiday season truly be filled with joy and peace on earth!

Love,
Karl
