I know I said I was taking a break until the New Year and will likely have few posts between now and then. But wanted to share where my head is now.
I stopped reading the Washington Post. I stopped the subscription but because I pay a year at a time that won't end until May.
I glance at the headlines on the New York Times but not as frequently as before. No more morning email with all the breaking stories for me to read and worry over.
I've limited my participation in causes to Moms Rising, Americans of Conscience and Faithful America so get their emails which are not frequent now.

We had a snowy Thanksgiving here. Daughter and family from Buffalo arrived Tuesday night so no snow issues for them. But niece and family from Boston suburbs drove through snow on Thanksgiving morning. The 6 cousins enjoyed the snow once dinner was ended.
And dinner was delicious. Everyone contributed multiple items. The locally grown turkey was exquisite! My fears of whether it would fit in the refrigerator to dry brine and then whether it would be done in time were for naught. In fact it was done 30 minutes earlier than expected which was fine. Everything was ready at 12:30 instead of 1:00.
I didn't manage to get a photo of roasted turkey. But my plate dished up is below.
Addendum: Despite Anonymous comment below there was gravy on the table. I hadn't poured it on before the photo was taken.
