This year is my first thanksgiving day away from my family and, yes, I do feel the effects. I miss the food, the family, and the ambiance. The laughs, the news, the tasty tasty food.
What can I say, I am food fan. (Obviously)
Today is the only day off I have this week and I'm enjoying it as much as I can. I'm not cooking, mainly because Joe is extremely picky and I am tired of cooking. I will pay someone to feed me and enjoy it. I think we are going to have some exquisite mexican (if it is open). I'm going to be watching the Saints game and working on my statement of purpose. Perhaps catching up on last week's episodes of Conan. Such is my life.
Tomorrow I have to work Black Friday and will hate it. I have grown to become numb to customers and their antics, just learning to shake off their quips and going on about my life. I am looking forward to not being a member retail society one day. There are not enough people who have worked retail in the life and I feel that is a shame.
10 days before I see my darling Mama again, attend my sister's wedding, and generally enjoy what it is was like to live in Fairhope before being in Texas. We are going to move back to Alabama briefly for the winter. It will be a regrouping, however. My journey does not have me ending up in Fairhope for long. I must keep moving.
Enjoy Thanksgiving everyone and enjoy your family. I look forward to seeing mine soon.
Love,
Ellen
