Well, life can turn on a dime. I'm supposed to be in Florida, chilling with the family and getting ready to stuff myself with turkey and dressing. However, due to circumstances, I'm spending the holiday in Charlotte with the hubby, cooking my Thanksgiving dinner on the fly tomorrow. I braved the grocery store on a semi-busted ankle on the day before a massive feast day, which is just criminally insane and now have realized I forgot the chicken stock. Grrr. But that's ok. I'll improvise.
This year, I know money is tight for everyone. People are cutting back on their roast beast, gifts, travel and trimming. Maybe that's good for us, to learn to do with less. But here is something to think about; it doesn't take much to throw a few extra canned goods into your cart, or to pick up an extra Barbie while you're buying for nieces and cousins. So think of others this year and be the helping hand. The donations have been slim and the need is greater than ever. You never know but that one year, the person needing the help could be you.
Be the change you wish to see in the world.
Happy Thanksgiving.
