Apparently this is National I am so thankful month
And of course, I am thankful for lots of things; family, health, work; all the old cliches. I have in the past sent the odd virtual card and I have received an email inviting me to send a virtual thanksgiving card. Of course I am not American and don’t actually know any American people in the real world, and if I did I am not sure I would be going down the virtual route. Apparently though there are plenty of things to celebrate during November:
Holidays…
23rd What Do You Love About America Day
24th Thanksgiving Day
25th Shopping Reminder Day
26th International Aura Awareness Day
29th Electronic Greetings Day
30th Stay Home Because You’re Well Day
November Is…
National Family Stories Month
National I Am So Thankful Month
National Adoption Month
National Family Caregivers Month
National Georgia Pecan Month
National Peanut Butter Month
Of course when they call something a holiday, I am assuming that most are not actual holidays, after all who ever told their boss they were taking a day off on 26th November for International Aura Awareness Day, mind you, perhaps it is worth a try!

You mean you don’t get time off work for International Aura Awareness Day here in the UK?

Not so far, but do you think it is worth a try?

Wow - the web makes everyone seem so close, I sometimes forget that you are in England. I guess you wouldn’t be celebratingThanksgiving, even though you certainly would give thanks. Does that make sense?
P.S. I tried some html in this post, let’s see if it worked…..

Well done Kim though I don’t really know the significance. I am up for celebrating anything really and I love turkey etc. Never tried pumpkin pie, but am expecting a slice from nemesis any day now!
