Happy Wednesday to all. It is Thanksgiving Eve here in the US. Chilly morning, and we are to get rain and then a little snow later today and overnight. Supposedly, it will be safe by travel time. The temps are starting to cool, then boom come the weekend - cold! Oh well, it is time. Guess that will be December saying hello!!! We have been so fortunate in our area on warmer temps.
Many, many of us have people we have loved and lost, and that are no longer here on this earth. It is always hard and sad, but it seems the holidays make it feel even worse. I want to put it out there that we all need to remember the good times. How fortunate we were to have those times and those people in our lives as long as we did. We need to make sure they are talked about, and memories are shared - keeping them 'alive' in everyone's hearts and minds. I am a true believer that talking about them - keeps them alive in a fashion. Laugh at the stories. Celebrate them.
Happy Thanksgiving to you! Good advice to remember and respect the ones who have gone before us. We are always saying that "the boys (my brothers) would eat that", mention something that his mother was annoyed by, remembering my sweet mother.
ReplyDeleteThe Avon High School Marching Black & Gold swept all the contests and are marching in the Macy's Thanksgiving Day Parade. As a parent of children who marched in high school and Ball State for Alana, I can appreciate all the hard work that goes into the process.
Not looking forward to the teens but it's almost December. Bound to happen! We are blessed with a warm house, vehicles with heaters that work and lots of warm clothing, comfy blankets and throws. Throw in a couple of four-legged heaters and we're all set for winter.
The Farmer decided he wants Italian Beef so we'll head out to get the rest of the ingredients. Good thing stores are close by!
I just think it helps to keep memories alive. I know it helps me. Sometimes the funniest stories come out!!
DeleteHow cool on the Avon school being in the parade. I haven't watched a parade in years.
Yep, we are blessed with so much - I just think about the homeless and those that still have no real shelter after all the storms. There are many yet.
Have a wonderful day with family and enjoy your Italian beef!
