Good Morning, Possums and Happy Sunday. It’s the first day of a new week. Some people are traveling (God’s speed) others -are taking the week off prepping for the arrival of family for Thanksgiving and others are living for Wednesday hoping they get out of work by 2-ish. I always told my team to leave at noon. Why go to lunch and come back and work for an hour? That never made any sense tome - just go home at noon.
I miss Thanksgiving of 5 (maybe 10) years ago (pre-multiple sclerosis - when I could walk with no assistance). A handful of friends and I would join 30-40,000 of our closest Dallas friends downtown for the Turkey Trot. We would walk (some would run) the 3.1 miles - it took about an hour - talking the entire time. Once we crossed the finish line, we would pick up our medals, walk around the crow of finished participants fora few minute (depending on how cold it was) and make our way back to our cars.
We loaded into the cars; all of wearing our Turkey Trot t-shirts and shiny finisher medals around our necks and headed for part 2 of the morning.
Part 2 consisted of heading to an open local watering hole. It was filled with their regulars; well, maybe not filled but a handful of them. Once we had our cocktails and shot of fireball, we toasted finishing the race and wished everyone a Happy Thanksgiving. We finished our cocktails and each one of us headed home to get ready for Thanksgiving. Sometimes we were all going to same place - other times, not. But that didn’t matter; not to me anyway. The two or three previous hours I spent walking, talking, chatting - culminating in our annual cocktail and shot with my friends was my Thanksgiving. That’s what I was thankful for. If I couldn’t be with my mom and dad, this was the place for me - the place I was thankful for - with my friends who are family - my besties. But I digress.
