Thanksgiving is Coming Soon!

Wow, it seems like we were all still in the midst of summer, and now Thanksgiving is just only a couple weeks away and we are into the fall season!

Many of us may be wondering how we are going to afford a dinner this year, or figure out how we can cut corners on the dinner and still make it feel and taste like home. With many of those out of work, or not working many hours, it can be hard to come up with the money to celebrate the traditional Thanksgiving feast.

There are ways to save money and also still celebrate the holiday without being too down in the dumps about the economy. Many of us can still be thankful that we are alive, have good health, a roof over our heads, and have friends and family who love us. While employment and money may lay heavy on many minds, we still have the gift of life to be thankful for. ...

--As they say..."This too, shall pass.."

If you are looking for ways to save money on Thanksgiving, I do have a great article you can read for some ideas to inspire you... Feel free to check it out:

What would you write in your Memoir?

So if you had or could write your memoir, what would you put in it?...  

 Our life is full of so many twists and turns-whether it be sad and happy,--or full of adventure.  Sometimes, even just leaving behind a journal for our children or other future generations to read is a great gift.  Memoirs can be filled with your own life lessons, pictures of special events throughout life, or heck-even be full of your own favorite recipes that can be used for eating-and living! 

-If I wrote a memoir, I may include special birthdays, favorite holiday gatherings, people and family members that I admired, and perhaps my own advice for living.  I would try to pick out the best memories in my life-that would be able to help others learn a lesson or be inspired....

--At Edubook, I had to write an article on how to write a memoir. So if you feel like this is something you would like to do, feel free to read my article, so that you can begin writing yours :)
