Happy Canadian Thanksgiving

This weekend is Thanksgiving weekend in Canada. Obviously, this year, this are very different for most of us. This is the first Thanksgiving I can remember when we will not be doing turkey dinner for the family. But, I am so very grateful that all of my family is healthy and happy. And, we will be doing a backyard coffee party, outside and distanced, with my daughter and family, which will be fun! I hope all my Canadian friends have a safe weekend.

Thanks, Anna! It will certainly be very different for our family as well but I am still looking forward to this weekend here in Ontario. The weather is supposed to be beautiful and the fall colors are gorgeous. Happy Thanksgiving, fellow Canadians!

This is the status quo for me. I haven't celebrated Thanksgiving for a decade. Thanks to the pandemic, I don't feel so left out.

Happy thanksgiving! I am thankful for being sober and I’m thankful that I will be seeing my daughter (physically distanced) for the first time since Christmas when my drinking comepletely ruined that holiday. Feeling very grateful.

Happy Thanksgiving, Canadians.

Now I want turkey and coffee.

Typical addict. Turkey makes me sleepy, coffee to wake back up.

Thanks!! I'm on a strict diet but get to loosen it for a nice meal. I can't wait to eat. Haven't even thought of drinks honestly.... because there will be none.

You guys are the best!

Puzzle, I am so glad that you are getting a chance to see your daughter. We make such messes when we're drinking and we hurt people that we love. I'm so glad that you are getting the chance to get together with your family, strong in your recovery.

Happy Thanksgiving Anna, and fellow Canadians.

We are passing on the family dinner and will celebrate quietly this year and made a donation to a church near here
that feeds the poor every single day.

I am grateful for so many things, and will ponder on my blessings and remember to say "thank You" that my family is safe and well.

Just my 2 cents, but we are not the best, you are.
