Thanksgiving in Deutschland

Congratulate me - Yesterday I cleared out the huge box of styrofoam which had been sitting in my storage room. And I did laundry. And I cleaned the kitchen. All this on a weeknight. Someone call "Ripley's Believe It or Not." I have further plans to get things organized in the next couple of weeks while I'm still here. That way when I return in January, I'll be starting off fresh in the new year.

The cleaning lady at work is such a hoot. Apparently, she's retiring and her last day is tomorrow. She's been telling everyone for weeks. Although a bit envious, it's probably not my time. Maybe next year.

I spent my Thanksgiving working today. And working out in the evening. So I probably didn't pack on the pounds that most people back home did, but it's certainly a holiday that I miss not taking part in. Jeepers, this was my 5th Thanksgiving in Germany.

Hoping everyone had a great one...
