Happy Thanksgiving!

It's 10 pm, the kids and dear hubby are tucked into bed and I'm enjoying a little quiet time to myself. It was a nice day. I did my cooking yesterday: Stovetop stuffing and a green bean casserole. Today we converged on my sister-in-law's house. Hers is big enough to accommodate the extended family of 16 or so. Each sibling bought a side dish or two, and my father-in-law cooked and brought the turkey. As always, I overate but only once.

As 2005 rapidly comes to a close, we have so much for which to be grateful. Here's my Top 5:

1) family
2) friends
3) our health
4) surviving Hurricane Katrina
5) all of our troops overseas working to ensure the safety of the U.S. and to bring peace to others
