Today the United States celebrates Thanksgiving. It's a day where we are supposed to give thanks for all that we have, be with family and friends, and usually eat.

Love the turkey day LOL. I enjoy seeing the family most of all. We don't get together enough.

I saw the kindergartners the other day at school who had dressed up for the Thanksgiving feast between the Indians and the Pilgrims.

Yesterday I listened to a podcast from two historians on Pocahontas and another on the first Thanksgiving celebrated at Plymouth. Needless to say there are a LOT of myths about both of them. They didn't call themselves Pilgrims for one thing.

There are myths about the traditional foods of Thanksgiving, too. Turkey doesn't really make you sleepy. Overeating does.

But one thing that isn't a myth is being thankful. I've been blessed to be able to do what I do. To have friends and family who support me.

Yes, definitely a day among many to be thankful.
