Getting Ready

Today I'm getting ready for the arrival of family for Thanksgiving. I'll be putting fresh clean sheets on the beds, baking cornbread for the dressing, and doing as much of the meal preparation as possible. My to-do list is a mile long. :o)

Yesterday the grocery store was crowded with people shopping for Thanksgiving dinner. Downtown, people are preparing the annual Raul Jimenez Thanksgiving Dinner, which will feed thousands of the poor and homeless. Today families are traveling to spend the holiday with loved ones. And tomorrow we will all sit down together to a feast, and thank God for all that He has given us. We are so blessed!

I'd better get going on that to-do list, starting with washing towels and cleaning a stinky litter box!
