The Difference a Year Makes?

'Let us come before him with thanksgiving and extol him with music and song". Psalm 95:2

Helium, T-Day playlist, sunset view over Midtown, starches, and the best "We are The World" group karaoke jam Chinatown ever saw. Then of course what holiday wouldn't be complete without the inevitable discombobulated disconnect?

A year ago today I watched the Thanksgiving Macy's Day Parade alone in XL sweatpants and cried....
I packed up the bookshelves of years and memories past, moved onto the guest bedroom linens, and then a few never used Martini glasses in the ole so quaint, gotta hold onto Butler's Pantry cabinet. And told my husband matter fact, I was moving to New York City.

This morning at 5 AM, bundled with a healthy thermos of Irish Whiskey in the mornin, we perched underneath the balloons on Central Park West and viewed it together.....still wondering if our shared dreams of tomorrow have the same soundtrack.

Happy Thanksgiving. And Happy Anniversary to me.

Who says you shouldn't make hasty decisions when you're mad?
