Setting differences aside ...

[beevul]

I'm in favor of setting politics and political differences aside for the day, in pursuit of truly enjoying the holiday with friends and family.:toast:


To everyone in J/PS, and indeed all of DU,

Have a happy Thanksgiving.:party:

6. hahaha hehehe

While you people are off eating turkey and falling asleep, you just never know what your northern neighbours may be getting up to, clear-headed and undrugged as we are by whatever that turkey stuff is that makes you pass out. (We can't count on that beer-like substance you imbibe down there to incapacitate you on its own, of course.)

Sounds like the perfect opportunity for a DU coup, to me. Perhaps even a little invasion in real time ... . You might just wake up tomorrow and find those funny looking red&white tree leaf banners flapping in the breeze and festooning these forums.

If not this year ... there's always next year. Be afraid!

And in the meantime, enjoy your day!

7. You have said something I agree with

American beer is a beer like substance.

8. Wanted to share

The sun is shining, and it's beginning to warm up from the nights desert chill. It is now the beginning of "the mouth watering hours", the time in which the smell of Thanksgiving dinner starts to saturate the house, and our noses. We ended up getting a 23.75 pound turkey, at 44 cents a pound, not great, but not bad either, pricewise. We also got 20 pounds of potato's and a raspberry pie for desert. We love potato's of the mashed variety. They usually leave little room for desert LOL.:9

Our pomeranian is scurrying about, trying to understand what all the hubbub's about. They are so SO animated, haveing to be in the middle of everything, and, its his first Thanksgiving with us. The other animals we share our humble abode with, are all looking around wondering whats going on. Our youngest daughter is watching the parade with mom. Our oldest daughter is still sleeping, she had drama class activities until late last night. But that wont last, that turkey smell doesn't let one sleep long. I miss my mom and dad, and sister and brother in law,niece and nephew, and all my immediate family, who are sooo far away now. Its hard, living a whole life within just a few miles of all ones family, to be so far away from them now. But, its ok, I know they're "here" with us, just as we are "there" with them. Present in spirit, if not in body. Days like this.......Today reminds me of whats really important.

The simple things in life, family, afar or near, and dear.
Simple things like a cat cuddling up on your lap, or the "grin"(you dog owners know what I'm talking about) on a little dogs face. Simple things like the smell of hearty food. The holiday mood. The love of your life savoring the day with you.:loveya: Freetime to enjoy it all. Waiting for family to call. Things that all the money in the world couldn't buy. Things that we might too often take for granted.
The simple things. Simple, yet they are the greatest times a person can ever experience. At least, to me.

I'd love to hear about anyone elses thanksgiving.

I know J/PS isn't the place for it, but it just seems the right thing to do today.
