Missing Out

Thanksgiving is one of my favourite holidays to celebrate...as it is for most of you I'm sure. BUT the thing that sucks is that I always end up having to work...I know i'm being kind of a whiner (I'm a good complainer), but it seriously makes me a little depressed. I don't think I've had a 'workless" thanksgiving for a few years now. Although I'm very thankful that I have a job I enjoy, I still can't help day dreaming about the good home made supper, home made dessert, and of COURSE the awesome company that I'm missing out on. This get's me thinking about how thankful I am for an extended family that i absolutely love. I know some people that have families that are kind of broken and they don't get along and there's lots of animosity...not with the Woudstra's! I do thank God for that...There's nothing better than goofing off with the cousins' for hours at a time :D...I hope there's still some time after my shift tonight to catch them before they leave...maybe we'll watch the Oilers game!
