Happy Thanksgiving!

Now go shop!
If you must go, otherwise be happy that you can go if you so desire while many still cannot afford to go…
Oops, am I the voice of reality?
Nah, just being my Grinchiest once again!
Everyone has their own reality to deal with and many are not as fortunate to be able to just go out to get those incredible prices with those first come first serve major sales!
But you go on ahead and get what you need… perhaps you should pick up an extra this or that and wrap it up for someone not as lucky as you?
Just another annoying idea from yours truly, you know the items that I am talking about the ones that are sold two for one or buy one get one free, BOGO?

These are only my suggestions for you to take a spin around the block with and you know me my advice is what its worth and free is free… and therefore worth NOTHING, ha!
Gotta love the brain challenged who are also grammatically challenged and usually incorrect and here we go again with my disclaimer announcements of not having a decent spell and grammar check… how odd it just corrected my spelling of ‘grammar’ as I wrote it wrong, G-R-A-M-A-R, missing the second ‘M’, scary! Sorry Spooky thing in my computer…nothing personal, oh sure it is! LOL!
Sometimes I suppose it does work…
But one never knows, does one?

Ideas of how to spend your holidays are always decent from my perspective since I have been fortunate enough to have had all different religious ways, quantitative ways, generational ways and you name-it ways of doing it in my past of over sixty years worth to give you all some input with, hmm?
EXPERIENCE, that’s what I am talking about.
You gotta love it that some of us have gone in all different directions from multiple massive parties to simple soirées for two.
Healthy to handicapped to multi-nationalities to ages from womb to 100 and beyond!
Yep, I’ve done it all.
Not bad, eh?
Sure it’s not.
Ask me anything.
Nah, my turn, you weren’t quick enough…
How did your turkey/ham day go?
Or, right now it should still be going, hmm?
That’s another consideration when only dinner for two and the two that happen to know each other …FOREVER! It doesn’t seem to matter if ONE takes the time to write her nightly drivel, hmm?
Any-who, for you though, I am concerned, since no answer from you could be a good thing or not so good thing, perhaps bad; you know what I mean?
We are friends, right?
Of course we are, and you wouldn’t lie to me when I ask you a straight question like I just have, and no it is not an anti-gay thing when I use the word ‘straight’, it means ‘direct’, for you over sensitive peeps…ha!
Been there too, not gay, just always overly sensitive too, not that there is anything wrong with either one of those…but you knew that!
I thought I should lighten this thing up a bit; especially after last night’s was way too heavy…hmm?
Am I doing any better, no wait…
Don’t give up on me; I haven’t given up on you!

Life is a highway and a byway that we must go on, on and on, and on and on…huh?
Why does that sound familiar?
Oh well, moving on…
Since I will hope to hear back from all of you on your day over the next few I will give you an encapsulated version of ours…
Got up at 5:22 A.M. did my usual stuff until nine a.m. and then watched the Macy’s Parade then the National Dog Show right after then Miracle on 34th Street circa 1947 contrary to Matt Lauer’s mistake of stating it being 1957 with who else but golden gal cold case little miss Natalie Wood that cutey that we all knew and really enjoyed in everything she did. All the time poking friends on Facebook and opening emails etcetera all day long… before receiving a phone call of cheer from number one son wishing us a Happy Thanksgiving via his hands free phone on his way home from work and him not knowing that we had also called his home to wish him good cheer for the day leaving the message on his home phone! Gotta love the guy!

And so all in all our day was pleasant enough our meal was good and homemade by us both while enjoying the traditions of the day whether of all the years whether two or fifty-two don’t we all have that programming on in our homey holiday background?
OF COURSE WE ALL DO!
Yep, another holiday another tradition preserved sort of…hmm?
Gotta take whatever we can get, huh?
Making Lemonade out of lemons, and that’s another thing our Ponderosa Lemons were ready for harvest and today Hubby brought in two, but there are a bumper crops more!

On that more than uplifting germ of hope… allow me to be the first to wish you ALL A VERY HAPPY THANKSGIVING, and I hope yours was as good as ours…tradition-wise at least and have a very happy good night and count all those blessings, which I am more than sure you gave thanks for today at your dinner and share those overages and we will too!

And next time please be here or be square, ya hear?
