We have so much to be thankful for. We went to a great Thanksgiving party at a friend's flat on Thursday night. About 15 of us piled into her small flat and shared a pot-luck style buffet of yummy food. Some faithful Amercians provided turkey, while some of the international students brought dishes from their respective countries. As a joke (and because they're all theater students), all the Americans did a short improvised play about the history of Thankgiving. We strayed pretty far from the true story by the end of it.
On Friday, we had just a few friends to our house for turkey. The best thing about hosting a turkey dinner is that you get to keep all the leftovers, so we knew we just had to have our own gathering. Good food and good company, who could ask for more? Although, we both missed our families on Thursday, it just didn't feel like Thanksgiving without them.
I started my new job this week and it went very well. There is a lot to learn, but they are pacing me so that I'm not overwhelmed. This week was mostly retail, but I start doing massage therapy next week. In the first few days I got very pampered because I had to learn all of the services by receiving them. So, I've had a couple chair massages, a make-over, a hand massage, and some aromatherapy. I love this job!
Peace,
Mandy
