People work on Friday, but a lot of people go shopping for Black Friday deals.

The vast majority of people are off Thanksgiving day and the day after.
Plenty of exceptions to that obviously.

Well... My Thanksgiving plans have changed. My brother-in-law is too sick for Thanksgiving and my sister has nothing planned. So, instead I'm going to be Celebrating it on Sunday with my Mother.

My cheesecake is in the fridge resting. Will take it out in the morning to add the topping and put back in.

All my cheese shredded for the Mac. Still can't decide how I want to go about making the sauce this time. But I'll work it out. Dropped the Gruyère this time for havarti. Still going extra sharp white cheddar and Gouda. Will probably add a small amount of velveeta for the sodium citrate, to help with the texture.

aha!
so your brother and his family were mere test subjects for the mac and cheese?

I'm thankful for the progress I've made mentally...Two years ago, I stopped self-harming and am not looking back. The birth control was making me hormally nutty as I've gotten to my natural size, bodies leveled out, and my mind isn't in 911 mode all the time. I'm thankful for my family and my grandmother still being alive. She was on death's door a year ago, and by the hand of God, frankly, is still here. She has her own new place in a lovely retirement community and will have her own space. Her living with us here in our small home was well, hard. But I'm grateful for her time here. The family (Mom, dad and myself) has changed for the better.

The community here, though we're all quite different and eclectic, I appreciate yawl here... If we can digitally come to the Thanksgiving table, there's hope for others; I might be seeing through rose-colored glasses, but it's a choice to see life pragmatically, yes, but see the hope...

I've learned so much here. How to guard my heart and mind for one, others reaching out in PM's has just been awesome. Too much to list...to all who have, thank you

Don't do to yourself what you would not done to anyone else.

I hope everyone had a good day. Boring here. Just football. We use to have big Thanksgivings but as I get older everyone is dying off.

 

[paltatomate]

death is part of life.
and if thanksgiving is about being thankful, i'm tankful for my dad and granddad, both dead.

 

[Fire&Water]

Happy Thanksgiving y'all! I hope you're having a delicious feast today and hopefully good times with friends or family (or at least not strangling them by hiding in a bar...)

*Cheers*

I believe if people remained in a thankful state of mind all day long we would have a lot less sickness. Being in a thankful state of mine is a nice healthy vibe to be in.

I just told my father who has smoked for 78 years and has heart issues to thank his heart for carrying him through. That’s a much better stance than cursing the heart disease.

So like... zero food pics? NONE??
(Besides mine?)
