HAPPY
THANKSGIVING
DAY
to all our passionate Canadians!

I have two calendars.
One says Canadian Thanksgiving Day is today, Oct 6.
The other says it is Monday Oct 8.
It doesn't matter which is correct
I'm thankful you are here with us
each and every day!

Thank you Kathleen.  And we as Canadians are thankful that we have you as our neighbours. Thanks so much for remembering.  We usually start celebrating today and continue on until all the pumpkin pie, turkey, cranberries, dressing, etc., are gone by Monday night.  

Seriously, we have so much to be thankful for this year, even amid all the chaos.  
~warm hugs to you, Nancy~

So that you won't ever forget me.~

And Melissa, LOL 10x over for the reply. Oh, that poor turkey!

Thank you so much for recognizing us.  You know it is hard sometimes we are so few on this site, but we are "strong" and I for one am so thankful for absolutely everything, and in that is having all of you on this site.  Thank you for this.

From this Canadian, thanks for the thoughts. I can't cook myself, but my sister in law is doing the turkey and trimmings. Yum, yum. I can't cook, but I sure can eat!!!
And I love Melissa's graphic up there. That is just too cute!!!

If she who dies with the most toys wins, then can I have some toy boys please?

From a Canadian who is gearing up for one turkey dinner today, and another tomorrow, and goodness knows how many days of turkey sandwiches to follow ... I humbly thank you for this lovely piece Midnitesun (and ROFL @ Melissa!)  

Best wishes,
/Kit

Kit, you're welcome. Seems as if 1-3 days of celebration for the good things in life is way over due this year.
