Thankful

Most of you are probably at the grocery store right this very minute, hoisting frozen turkeys into your cart, and wrestling over the last bag of stuffing as you elbow your way through packed aisles of frenzied, frowning women. We know this, because this is what we do every year before Thanksgiving -- last minute, of course.

Not only is November a stressful joyful month for many mothers and wives, this November happens to also mark the the six-month anniversary of this blog. We wanted to take this time to express our thanks to you, our readers, for being loyal and supportive. We look forward to and truly appreciate every one of your comments, "likes" and emails. We want you to know that none of it goes unnoticed.

This blog had its humble beginnings as a creative outlet for us - a place where we could log our thoughts, frustrations, and laughs -  but we have discovered that what initially started out as something for "just us" has turned into something for all of us. This journey of motherhood, marriage, friendship -- this journey of life -- is one that we all share. We are in it together, and for that? We are thankful. Giving thanks wouldn't be complete without including our families, who unknowingly provide us with limitless fodder for this blog, and of course, who we are extremely thankful to have - despite the whining.

We are going to take the next few days off to be with our families/get fat/buy "doorbusters!" flat screen TVs, but we will each re-post a personal favorite tomorrow and Friday -- which, by the way, if you have time between The Muppets movie, eating turkey sandwiches, and re-heating leftovers, feel free to check them out. You can find lots of good whines under "The Whine Cellar" to the left of the post.

Thanks again to each and every one of you for your support.  We look forward to uncorking many more friendships with all of you.

Happy Thanksgiving!

Cathy and Patti
