When I was a young lad, my father was a Navy chief. Since he was away for six months out of the year, my mother never bothered to celebrate Thanksgiving. In fact, it wasn't until my sister first attended grade school that we had even heard of Thanksgiving. Apparently she came home one day and asked my mom what this "Thanksgiving" thing was that she'd been hearing about.

Ever since then, we've been celebrating Thanksgiving together. Although my sister hardly ever makes it home anymore, I always try to make it back. That means I'll either be traveling today or early tomorrow morning, depending on what time I leave work today. Blogging will be light over the holiday, which is a good thing. Rather than reading websites, you should be spending time with your family and being thankful for everything that is good in your life.

Here's to you and yours.
