I worked today, but managed to take a break for dinner.
We stood in a circle, each of us recounting what we were thankful for.
The dinner table was set.
I noticed the centerpiece was made of fresh pine sprigs and pine cones.
The �kiddie table� was laden with epicurean delights. The aromas and colors were simply intoxicating.
This year, no one sat at the �kiddie table� � we�d all grown up, graduated to the dinner table.
Pooh* snuck home. She�d called to say she couldn�t afford to make the trip � her college expenses are out the roof.
Next thing you know, 2 a.m. Wednesday night after shaking her tail feather, at The VIP Club, she came on home.
How�s that for critical thinking, and strategic planning?...who says college Freshman don�t learn anything their first year?
All kidding aside, it was a remarkable day.
I had the pleasure of spending time surrounded by my favorite people.
They�ve loved me and supported me throughout.
This year has been particularly fruitful on a number of fronts.
I�m blessed beyond measure, admittedly it feels good.
