TAN #154: What are you TANkful for this time of year? (Page 50)

Oh dear!

And they really keep you stuck there 'til 5pm? on Thanksgiving Eve? Yikes.

Of course! The crumble topping is made with the regular stuff - just a gluten free flour mix instead of regular. Mmmmm!

Not me, I am one on those mean a(* bosses.  No fear though; I am letting employees go early.  Shhhh, don't tell them

Could you post or PM me the recipe? Some don't work well with gluten-free flours (what kind/brand do you use?) and I'd love to have one that does.

Heh. My students and employees used to live in mortal fear of me ... until they figured out I was a total pussycat. But by then ... they were pussywhipped.

Naw, they now that I am a push over and going along with most everything as long as the work gets done and clients are happy.  I run a pretty relaxed office to the point that my dog comes to the office everyday. 

Incredibly jealous.

Thanks for living it up so that those of us stuck in the office can live vicariously through you today!

Schpanks!

Yes, actually 6pm since I got to work late due to packing.  Janicewhokeepsmehumble and two of the Geezerettes are gathering in Atlanta as we speak. I will go over the river and through the woods to Grandma's house tonight after work. Geezerette #1 arrives tomorrow morning in Atlanta with the Grand Geezerette.  They will travel en masse to Grandma's for the big turkey dinner on Thursday. The GrandGeezerMa's turkey dinner at assisted living is on Friday. There is a schedule on a spreadsheet that has been distributed.

Chipotle!

Very strange that since I've been sick I've had a real hankering for pseudo-Mex, but I have.

BWAH HA HA HA!

I love it.

Sounds like our family gatherings. Gets complicated because certain members won't go if other members will be there, etc. but I don't do any of the planning--I'm on speaking terms with everyone and just like to gorge myself wherever and whenever. I can ignore whatever may be going on in the background.

It's funny--one place I worked was super relaxed, even encouraging about bringing dogs to work (mainly b/c the CEO and veeps all wanted to and brought their dogs ... oh and because it was called Mad Dogg Athletics back then, heh) ... but we stayed until 5pm on EVERY holiday eve, and we got Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's off. That's it. No 4th of July, nothing else, etc.

zzzZZZZzzzzz

Happy Thanksgiving to all.

I'm very sorry to hear of your Grandmother's passing, Kido.  *Man hug*

Hang in there.

My condolences to you and your family.

For what it is worth, mine passed away on Wednesday of last week and on the same day my other grandmother was diagnosed with cancer 10 ways from Sunday . 

Sorry Jim.  I have no doubt that she had a lot of joy in her grandson.  Celebrate the life.

So, I've been thinking a lot since last week and I am trying to figure out what I am truly greatful for (outside of basic easy answer of family and friends).  For me I think that it is training; you get to continually push yourself to a breaking point and sometimes get through it.  That challange, I think, is what I am greatful for.

Any thoughts, remember outside of family and friends?

Two things come to mind: My dog, and the fact that I am employed.
