Gratitude

By Theresa Howe

Gratitude word cloud

There’s about to be a turkey explosion, at least if predictions around the 2A office are correct. Some people are flattening birds to speed cooking time (spatchcocking, for you experts), some are having huge gatherings and hence huge birds, others are barbequing and smoking multiple turkeys. I’m cooking a 14lb bird for 2, because it’s the smallest one I could get my hands on readily. It’s going to be awesome.

This is a time of the year when we focus on remembering to be grateful for the things, and by things I really mean people, that enrich our lives. Whether it’s colleagues and clients or family and friends, we’re feeling pretty grateful to get to do what we do every day.

So while we contemplate the good things in life, I’ll leave you with this partial gem from the Oatmeal. If you aren’t familiar, he’s a Seattle guy with an insanely popular website who writes comics online, books as well, sells merchandise and sponsors running events. He’s a colorful guy and so is his take on Thanksgiving.
