I'm alone. The Thanksgiving I had was with friends on Sunday and it was lovely. Family is at a distance, and I don't do flying anymore. The family that is near have their own gatherings, and I don't fit in there anymore since Mom died several years ago. So, I'll cook a good meal for myself, go for a walk, and watch movies and sports today.

Happy Thanksgiving to you and to all who are solo today and to all who are gathered with loved ones, as well....
