Thanksgiving

General


I know the Canadians beat us to it (I thought they were suppose to be the nice people?), but to all of my fellow USA'ers: Happy Thanksgiving!

The thing I am most thankful for is my family making it through 2020 with no serious problems. Also my two sons finishing university and passing their registered nurse exams and securing jobs. In this Covid world I worry about their safety as they work on the front lines.


badass. Happy Thanksgiving, all

Unfortunately Thanksgiving is not a cherished tradition in Sweden. It's a wonderful thought even though, this year, it may not be possible for you. I'm sure you will find a way.

We do have Erntedank in Germany but at the end of the Harvest. And with the decrease of number of Farmers and People Living on the land the Holiday is less and less celebrated (even though the urban people also have to eat&hellip😉

If you exclude me we are a pretty nice people. We were just smart enough to have our thanksgiving in October. Do you really enjoy having a turkey on November 26th then another one on December 25th?.....Anyway it is not about the Turkey it it is about giving thanks to what you have. This year we can be thankful for those of us still alive.

Everyone who celebrates remember to stay in your bubble, safety is most important, then perhaps next year you can get together in a larger crowd. Do what the Scientists, Doctors, and experts say and together you can beat this killer virus.

I just heard on the news that 50 million people are in need of food in the U.S.A.!

More people are actually traveling then usual against requests not to go anywhere.
It is really sad to hear especially on Thanksgiving day!

I hope you and your family are safe and healthy.
