There was no Macy's Day Parade. No turkey paired with the "fix-ins". No family squished around a table gorging and chatting away. No male family members deer hunting. No football game or football talk. No after turkey naps. No apple pie or pumpkin roll. And no game of dominoes.
There was just me, at work, thinking about all the things I was missing out on being a gazillion miles away on Thanksgiving Day. And if you think about it, that's quite ironic. I was left to sit alone and actually be thankful for all that I have in my life. This year, Thanksgiving wasn't just about having a day off and eating a lot of great food. It was like taking a look back at this past year and realizing how good I really have it. I am thankful for everyone in my life and all of the experiences I have had. And, I am thankful for being me. I am happy, and that's all a girl can really ask for.
