I really did believe this would be easier by now. It is not. The thought of doing a tradition Thanksgiving or Holiday of any kind for that matter, does not appeal to me. I am no longer going to beat myself up about it.

So here is how our Thanksgiving will go this year..

Right now I am drinking coffee from my favorite Christmas cup. It’s the one the boys wanted years ago for Santa’s milk.  I will go to the store here in a bit to grab our stuff for dinner. The menu tonight is Roasted Salmon, Broiled asparagus with Parmesan cheese, a salad and pumpkin pie for dessert. It is just Wolfie and I this year. It will be quiet. There will be no mention of all the amazing Thanksgivings we have had in years gone by. No talk of Christmas plans, no Holiday movies. We will just be together and without saying a word, we will miss what used to be.
