My family – we’re Thanksgiving people. We hold Christmas sacred, but we love Thanksgiving almost as much.
With that in mind, I want to pass along something to make you think as much as smile. Several people, in fact, sent me something similar. Thanks to Kate, Denise, Dave, Heather, and Alexis from parts scattered wide and far.

The History Channel’s Thanksgiving site is … very, very cool.
Martha Stewart’s Thanksgiving Workshop – say what you want about the woman, she brings the holidays something special.

Well, it’s finally over. I guess.
I hope your candidates won. I hope you’re optimistic and hopeful about the future. I hope you’re as glad as I am that the nasty political ads are finally done. There were a couple races here where I didn’t feel like voting for EITHER of them. They were just mean!

I was on the fence this time about whether to do something Halloween-related or not. We were never big fans of it around our house, but we did buy candy for other neighborhood kids.
So, rather than ghouls, goblins, spooks and specters, I give you an important lesson from the pulpit.

It’s time for my six month visit to the dentist.
You know how hard it is to talk to your dentist when your teeth are being cleaned? Me, too. No more mumbling!
My friend Nancy sent me these. It’s sign language for your dentist. Give him these (numbered 1-10) when you visit.

A friend recently, somewhat surprisingly, became pregnant with what will be their third child. We’re all celebrating with her as it’s somewhat surprising given her age … which will remain secret.
