And I wonder how much weight we'll all gain today! *grin Sometimes I lose sight of the fact that it's about being thankful...not about food!

I'm almost done reading a wonderful book by Elizabeth Berg and I can't help but notice the difference in our world...on so many levels. It's about three sisters who are in love with men in the service...WWII and the sacrifices everyone in this country made on behalf of our fighting men.

I hope I'm wrong in thinking that only military families are sacrificing...maybe I am still reeling from hearing the statistics of military suicides..I hate war...all wars but I'm thankful for our young men who are willing to put their lives at risk for all of us.
