Day before Thanksgiving

It's the day before Thanksgiving, and I suspect many of us are working, and will be off tomorrow. I am off work today (I work in the hospitality industry, at a hotel), but I am not "off work," so to speak.

I'm doing laundry, made lunch for my lovely bride Shirley and myself, and am about to run an couple of errands, one of them to the grocery store (I know, today's NOT the day to do that!). Then I need to be back here before 5 and ready to "do holiday" with Shirley. (Is that phrase right??? Oh, well--it's right for me. Did I coin a new phrase?)

We pray your Thanksgiving is good. Like the rest of us, try not to eat too much turkey, or whatever you're cooking up for tomorrow (a co-worker told me they're having fried turkey and bbq brisket. Mmmm....sounds good; I never heard of brisket on Thanksgiving.......next year!

I know the holidays can be hard. If you need an ear or prayer, email or call me. I will answer. If you'd like a christian group to fellowship, hang and eat with tomorrow, we'll be at Bp. Jim and Shanna's in Moore, and you're welcome to join us. Email or call me and I'll give you directions.

I pray you have a good Thanksgiving. Let us give thanks to the Lord, for His mercy endures forever.
