We started the day with a decree. Today is to be spent taking it easy, watching movies and wearing soft clothes only. (It's one of the perks of not going anywhere - you get to wear schlumpy clothing and not give a hoot. Plus it allows for unlimited grazing throughout the day.)

For the first time together we watched the Macy's parade. It reminded me of being a kid. We'd watch the parade at my grandparents' house while hearing the sounds of breakfast being made. This morning made me miss the sounds of scraping the burnt off of toast and a geriatric coffee maker. Ah, Thanksgiving memories.

Right now, I'm watching Miracle on 34th Street, my sweetie is making a sweet potato pie, Bean's asleep in my lap and I couldn't be happier. I'm grateful for these little things - this is what Thanksgiving is all about.

Happy Turkey Day, all.
