Today is a day of thanks.   I am thankful for so many blessings.  I am thankful for all of you who take the time to read my musings each day.

I look forward to celebrating our freedom and gifts which we are given with family.  I do know this holiday can cause stress and exhaustion for many.  

I have some tips are links that can ease the upcoming calamity of the season. 

I am fired up and ready for the shopping Super Bowl tomorrow.  I will be providing you with all the upcoming sales and deals on my radar.

Until then…
