[Blindtlk] happy Thanksgiving everyone!

[Constance Canode]

Happy Thanksgiving to everyone.  It is just the two of us here, but 
the smells of the turkey and the food I have cooked and am cooking 
are driving me to distraction.  I am starving, and can hardly wait 
for the turkey to get done.  Most of our friends are in Pennsylvania 
and Illinois and a couple in California and no family here either, 
but we will have a good holiday just the same.  I was off yesterday 
and did a lot of preparing in advance and have to work tomorrow, so 
we couldn't travel far even if we wanted to.  Eat well and enjoy the 
company of those you love.  Have a wonderful and food-filled day.
