Holidays

Holidays are a time to relax and enjoy the company of your friends and family. This year, the Holiday season is going to be difficult for so many people. Very difficult.
It has been over 2 months since Lee left us, and some days it still feels like yesterday. I think about him all the time; constantly; every day. My thoughts consume me sometimes. I catch myself in a daze at work sometimes and I realize that I am thinking about him. When I am alone in the car, I find myself thinking about him. When I am going to bed, I find myself thinking about him. I still cry. Not just for myself, but for my bestest friends, his family, and those that he left behind with so many questions. I can't even imagine what they continue to go through every day. It still doesn't seem real.
Today is Thanksgiving. I am thankful for so many things. I am thankful for my family and friends. I am so blessed for those in my life. It is amazing how lucky I am in that respect. Amazing. I am thankful that i have not one job, but 3. Especially this time of year. I will be working my tail off this weekend, but it will help with those bills that seem to never go away. I am thankful for the roof over my head. I am thankful for the vehicles we drive. I am thankful for the neighbors we have. I am thankful for the unnecessary things I own.
Be thankful. Give thanks. Hug those you love and tell them so. Eat lots of turkey and pie!
HAPPY THANKSGIVING!
