marinessHappy Thanksgiving to all who celebrate -- and for those who don't, may your food of the day be marvelous and fulfilling, and your day filled with happiness and laughter anyway.
The greyness I usually associate with Thanksgiving vanished a couple of days ago. The sun appears to be in an apologetic mood. From my window I can see pink flowers bursting determinedly from the bougainvillea that died two years ago and decided to return, the orange flowers of the honeysuckle that, unlike every other plant in the front yard, is growing completely out of control (the others mostly look sad or weakly determined) even though it's the one plant we really don't want to have growing out of control since it's near the mailbox, the first hint of red appearing on the red maple, and a cat deciding that really, when it's this cold (by cat standards) the only thing you can do is crawl into the lap of the nearest person and tap their arms with your little paws until the person stops typing and scratches your chin instead, which is enough to warm up any cat.
