Thanksgiving Dinner on a Budget

Re: Budget101.com : Thanksgiving Dinner on a Budget

To me Thanksgiving was all ways about family gathering. When my kids are all
gone and holidays roll around and they are not able to come over to spend
holidays with their parents, I will then and only then go and help those that
are less fortune. In today’s busy life and schedules I find it a privilege and
a blessing that my family can get together on holidays.

I do feel sad for those
who are less fortune, and I have spent my last 18 years volunteering more hours
than people who work part time. But I do need to have family time. And we do
enjoy a good meal and having that on holidays is not a sin.

I know there will
be days when I will be spending holidays alone as my kids leave home, but now I
do want to enjoy their company and memories with them.
