Kind of a bittersweet holiday. Daughter is at boyfriend's family. Started a tradition a long time ago of a bunch of us single farmers getting together for Thanksgiving. Food was terrible but no one can screw up Miller genuine draft. This year we were down to me and one other guys who is now in a county nursing home. Otis and i went to see him this morning and smuggled him in a beer. This getting old thing sucks

dr p can relate to the ‘bittersweet’ of the holiday.
Wife and I gave up on trying please families during this holiday, and actually all the holidays.
Got to the point of not enjoyable not matter if we travel to family(hers), or we hosted and family would travel to us. Her Mother would always want to leave early, ‘because your Father doesn’t like to drive in the dark’, which of course means the main meal was to be served early afternoon, so the in-laws were back home before 5pm.
For me, Thanksgiving over the years has lost a lot of ‘its luster’. What was once a celebration of finishing harvest(hopefully) and a profitable year on the farm. Nowadays ‘harvest’ is nearly completed almost a month before Thanksgiving Day. Kids are off from school the whole week now.
I tried to follow the science, but it was not there. I then followed the money, and that’s where I found the science.
