One cousin, one brother, one boyfriend, two parents, two neighbors, two dogs, three different cocktails, a three point one mile race, twenty-five pounds of turkey and more food than we knew what to do with. It doesn't get much better than that.
I don't know if you know this, but my last day off was October 29th. Seriously. All I can say is that I am so very tired.
So I'm sure you'll believe me when I say that I have not only been looking forward to these next few days, but that I really need them. After work today at noon, I'm going to Roanoke until Friday. I'm not bringing my computer. I'm just bringing Rob, some laundry, and a few books.
I can't wait to get to the lake.
I am thankful to be working so much, but I'm also thankful for the chance to slow down, spend a few days with my family, and take the time to remember what's really important in life.
Like breathing.
Wishing you and yours a very wonderful week of Thanksgiving.
