Thanksgiving
I have lots and lots to be thankful for. But today is not Thanksgiving in CU Land. Thanksgiving was in October here. Wild Man had school today. Archer had to teach. Bear, George, and I went to the park. We had chicken, broccoli, and mac and cheese for dinner. We didn't even have dessert. For us, it was an ordinary day. And that is okay with us. I have had to explain this to every family member who called today though. I was happy to talk to everyone, but after the fourth phone call it was a bit annoying to have to explain yet again that "Nope, it isn't Thanksgiving here." We've lived here for 3+ years. I think people would have figured this out by now.
