Happy day before Thanksgiving

My guess is that most people won't be checking my blog tomorrow because they will be too busy cooking a Turkey, or watching football or any other lovely Thanksgiving activity. I will be here working away in a land without Thanksgiving (sigh).
Actually I am going to a Thanksgiving dinner with some other Americans; it will be Indian style with Tandoori Chicken and some "normal" stuff. Apparently getting a turkey here costs about $100 so...chicken it is.
So now for the cheesy "what I'm thankful for" part of Thanksgiving...I'm thankful that my foot is finally (mostly) better, I'm thankful that I got this opportunity to come to India...who'd of thunk I'd live in India, but, cheesy though it may be, I'm really happy I grew up in a country where I can make my own decisions and live my life according to what I want and not some pre-destined route based on what my family has decided for me.
So, have some turkey and pumpkin pie for me and enjoy the football!
Happy Thanksgiving All :)
And safe travels.

We are really thinking of you especially today, Thanksgiving, and remembering that we shared American THanksgiving with you in Toronto last year and walked in the snow after we got the turkey in the oven. Who knows where you'll be next year! Love, Mom
