I wanted to wish everyone a "Happy Thanksgiving".

I know the holidays can be very stressful times for us when we don't feel good.

Thanks Julie!

Happy Thanksgiving to you too, and EVERYONE here!

I used to do Thanksgiving at our house, for the past 5 years, we'd have up to 35 people here (no, our house isn't that big, lol), but we'd diagonally put up tables in the basement. It was always a dream of ours to host holidays for family.

This year, my mom offered, or should I say insisted, that she do it. AFter Leslie's death, and I'm battling pneumonia/bronchitis right now, she doesn't want me adding any more than I have to , to my plate right now. To be honest, I'm glad, I just didn't have it in me. I would have done it, just like I do everything else in my life, I just keep on keepin on, but I'm glad that's lifted off me.

I know we're all sick, but we do have things to be grateful for in the midst of all that. WIshing you all many blessings.

love,

j

Jaime!

I'm sending you some of my immunesystem via cyberspace to help you fight off that infection! (Did anyone else ever try to telepathically send your pee to someone else so they could go to the bathroom for you? LOL No? Just me and my silly elementary school,...ok college..., friends! Hahaha.)

All kidding aside, I also wish everyone a peaceful Thanksgiving. It is my favorite holiday, other than my own birthday of course, because you get all the great food with no expectation of gift giving! That's the spirit! Good food, good people, good times! And a long weekend! Hooray!

May everyone be pardoned from pain on Turkey day!

Jaime: Like you I just don't want to cook this year...Mom is going out to my sisters to give me a BREAK that I really need. So we are going next door and they are doing the cooking I am making all the pies. Jim is off 1st time in 10 years on Thanksgiving...
