An entry...;-)

                                    

Good Morning campers!!!

                                       

Has it really been a week since I wrote  an entry??  Time flies when you're having fun I guess...I have been busy..shopping..socializing etc etc it's just a busy time of year for everyone and I am no exception..this week we obviously have Thanksgiving which is at our house this year..today is out TG lunch at work and a "staff meeting" so I am going in for that..next week is our trip to California which hubby had to cut short by a day ..more on that later..the week after that is the annual girls drinks and gift exchange..then the week after that is BOTH hubby and mines Christmas Parties for work...hubby's is at the Omni downtown on the riverfront and ours is at Shannon's Irish pub.... so there is not a free weekend between now and Christmas...crazy huh? but good crazy.... I love this time of year but to be honest I seem to be the only one in  J Land!!!..I  have never seen so many sad and unhappy entries in my life..I feel bad prattling on about how happy I am but dammit I just am!! I wish I could wave my magic happy dance wand over J land and cheer everyone up...I am sure you are all rolling your eyes and thinking shut the hell already Brit..but that's okay....Christmas is my parade and you can't rain it...;-)

                                     

I need to get off here and get busy I need to  make a Hashbrown casserole to take the office...then I need to pick up a couple of things for tomorrow..we are not doing Turkey as Christmas Day is Turkey day in this household...

                                         

In case I don't make it back on before tomorrow I wish you all reading this a blessed and Happy Thanksgiving tomorrow..may your days be filled with good food..good fun and most of all a day when you reflect on all you have to be thankful for...my blessings are many and they include each and everyone of you....

Gobble Gobble......  ;-)

Agree with you about this time of year and sadness....while it does not make me sad it makes or I let it make me stressed. The hubby and I both have birthdays right b/f Christmas and then there are those people who never tell you one thing they want or need! Need to turn over a new attitude and get something and be done with it b/c that is not what it is all about right? Have a great Thanksgiving and WE ALL REALLY HAVE LOTS TO BE THANKFUL FOR!

Hey there girlfriend...I am REALLY happy too, so you can send your happiness over my way!!!  Life is good, everyone is healthy, I have a roof over my head and food in my freezer and I'm surrounded by people I love.  It doesn't get any better than that!!! (Well, ok, a million dollars WOULD be better, but I don't want to get too greedy!!!)

Enjoy your Thanksgiving....I know I will!!!!

((hugs))

Happy Thanksgiving !  No, you are not the only one that loves Christmas!  I'm right there beside you!  Our local radio station that I listen to at work started playing full time Christmas songs yesterday and I love it !  The radio got turned up a notch or two so all can hear it!  'On Ya' - ma

God bless you on this Thanksgiving.  Eat some pumpkin pie fo me!

I 'm happy ! LOL
For the most part anyway.
I have enjoyed reading alot of J-landers "thankful" things over this month, there really is a lot of things we could be/should be thankful for in life despite all the crap we all deal with.
Party on sista !

Plenty of Sunshine and Happiness happening down under, babe!  Feel free to come and spread the Christmas cheer with me anytime!  I LOVE this time of year.  Love the insane social life, the madness of shopping, the over eating, everything about it - just can't wipe the smile off my face!  So no apology needed here...lol...

Enjoy the 'silly' season!  That's whats so good about it - no one expects anything other than craziness and crazy, I can do very well!!!!
