Oh, certainly, a specific day to remember and be grateful. I would not begrudge that. I just believe that every day, or at least on any potential day, and frequently, we should go through our inventory in life and realize how good many of us have it. Rich, poor, middlings, bright, slow, tall, short, even those who are having troubles in life should easily be able to find things that are working out for them. Just that you draw breath means you have moments to consider or reconsider.
While I have a mumbling mouth full of fight in me, from time to time, regarding this or that, I am quite pleased with what I do have. Finally on the right course of treatment for the right problem... Finally in a home, with activities at least in the work, and many actually done, if not in great haste or any surety ever. Family, friends, a couple of cats, a vehicle, a little spending money, and a place to spout off about whatever might be troubling me. While it could be better it definitely could be worse. I have seen worse in my own life and seen worse still in other people's lives. No, I've got much to be thankful regarding.
A neighboring family has invited me to their Thanksgiving feast. I asked if I could bring anything, but that was turned down cold. Oh, I understand. Families here are large. And enough food has been made for, well, many. Anything I could bring would be just an oddity, and unnecessary. Well, and as a bachelor who lives in a cave, possibly questionable. Hey, I can eat it but... yeah... All good. I will get in a shower, air dry a bit, and be read shortly. I can't remember if it is at 13:00 or 14:00 though, so I best rush, and perhaps call at about the 12:50 mark, which would give me enough time to make a timely appearance either way.
I hope you are doing something, even if just relaxing. Grateful to work, but grateful for time off as well. Happy Thanksgiving.
Hope you enjoyed your TG!
ReplyDeletebtw - when should the theme post by the haiku host be in by?
Oh, I did. Very much, thank you.
ReplyDeleteUhrm, I put it up (early to many) Thursday. Friday seems to be the consensus. But it has been posted as late as Sunday (late and difficult to make for many).
If you want to be with the in crowd, Friday. After that, depends on if you want more players. Thursday offers more people opportunity. Saturday, definitely Sunday, may shave the numbers who can put it together.
No real set rules. Judging even used to be firmly set at midnight Monday, but... busy, ill, etc. people have had to stretch that (well, and sometimes hoping for more posts overnight).
Yeah, I'm as much help as a hammer dropping on the foot, but... I do work to be honest, if that counts?
