Thursday is Thanksgiving Day in the United States. So, this week is getting ready for turkey day. Today I have to make lists and get groceries. Tomorrow is cleaning day. Wednesday is pre-preparing the food for the next day. Early Thursday morning, I rush around and get a little unnerved in trying to arrange the food to be finished cooking all at once. We celebrate our thanks at noon. By 9 am my daughter is usually putting wine in my juice glass to keep me calm. Yes, by noon I'm sitting on a stool, with my wine, and pointing at what needs doing. Everyone usually pitches in and everything works out. Chaos, yes. Lots of laughs, yes. Thankful for family, yes. It's a tradition.
