thanks
I know that it’s been ages since I’ve posted anything--we’ve been swamped here, preparing for the holidays, reading and writing (I have a stack of twenty young adult books that I’m cruising through; and my own novel is at 81,369 words. Whew.), and hosting five authors for an Author Showcase (which I’ll be telling you all about, later).
But today, my family and I are just hanging out, making food and drinking coffee in our pajamas, slowly decorating the house--boxes of ornaments are behind me, but the stockings have been hung…
(I can smell the pumpkin pies we just stuck in the oven… yum.)
Outside it’s a perfect Novembery day, drawn in shades of grey and brown, red leaves scattered on our lawn.
Nearly anything I can think of to say about Thanksgiving will be cliché, as you’ve all heard it before. So I won’t say it. I’ll let you fill in the blanks.
(But I do feel very, very blessed.)
I hope you all have wonderful days, wherever you are, enjoying the food, the football, the family--doing whatever you do to celebrate. Happy Thanksgiving!! --jl
