It seems like it comes about every six months, wlnrn we were growing up once Thanksgiving came, we only had about 3 months until Christmas. Seriously time docs fly. I wonder how many people are like myself, we just take our blessings for granted. I know 1 must be about the luckiest person in the world. I veryday should be Thanksgiving. This Thanksgiving, why not try to do at least one good deed for someone a little less fortunate than we are. It would mean one more thing for them to give thanks for having a friend like you. Happy Thanksgiving.
