What Ever Happened to Thanksgiving?

I am so excited today because #1. It's FRIDAY. #2. There's only one week until Thanksgiving Break!! #3. After Thanksgiving Break, I think there's only like two weeks until Christmas Break. :) Time is flying by this semester. I'm so close to being done with school but I'm getting senoritis really badly. hahah Good thing Stetson helps me to stay on track and get things done.

Anyway, So Stetson and I were at WalMart looking for Halloween stuff a couples days before Halloween and there was already Christmas stuff being put up! I couldn't believe it. What ever happened to Thanksgiving? It's totally a great holiday and where we think about our fore fathers from four score and seven years ago plus all the other presidents and soldiers and what not. ya know? I mean seriously it's the Grateful holiday where we should be grateful for the things we've been given and the people that have done so much for us. Why do we just skip over it all of a sudden? I've been plagued with this question for so much of my life.

I don't know even if there's a way to stop this madness but I propose a protest happen for the sake of preserving Thanksgiving and being grateful!! ok maybe not, haha but it was a thought. (We're covering the Civil Rights Movement in my history classes this week haha) So yeah. well I hope everyone has a Happy Thanksgiving and just relax and be grateful that you can relax without having to do crazy hard stuff like our ancestors. :)
