I am thankful...

I won't be posting again until after the holiday (i.e. next Monday, I never work the day after Thanksgiving, I consider that still holiday time :) We have dial-up at home, and I'll just come right out and say that it's a pain in the ass to try to anything within a reasonable amount of time on dial-up. So, that's that :) Mike and I are hosting Thanksgiving dinner at our house. I'm nervous, as I always am when hosting an event. I get paranoid about my house getting clean, the food being good and warm, having enough to offer everyone, and generally turning into my mother. The very casual Catholic Librarian suddenly demands that the bread be in a proper basket and condiments in their own special decorative containers. But it will be fun. My sister and brother-in-law are bringing wine, so we're good :) And I'm sincerely thankful for everything that I have. My husband, my son, my home, my faith, a loving family, fabulous friends, a good job that I love, and just life itself.
