Traditionally Thanksgiving is a time where we realize all we are thankful for. We should be thankful everyday but today is the day we stuff our faces with our family and friends and say what we are thankful for. Recently though it's also become a day of shopping. Instead of hanging around the TV watching football people are standing in line at Target or the mall waiting for the door buster deals. Personally I think it's stupid but don't get me wrong I am all for Black Friday shopping but it should not start ON Thanksgiving. Thanksgiving should be about family not shopping. I worked in retail on Thanksgiving into Black Friday and it's awful! I had to leave my family really early to get to work early to set up for these ridiculous crowds. If you do go out shopping please be careful! Don't get trampled no object is worth your safety!
Before I head over to my Thanksgiving with my family here is my list of what I am thankful today and everyday in no particular order:
1.) My Family
2.) My Friends
3.) Mine and My Family's Health
4.) My Doggies
5.) A Roof Over My Head
6.) A Job
Have a happy Thanksgiving! Be safe and eat too much, you can always work out tomorrow! :)
