Can you believe it's almost Thanksgiving? I am stunned at how quickly the time goes by! It's hard for me and my husband to make the holidays what they should be...as we're both in the news biz and it can be tough! November is part of the normal television ratings period and that means time off is almost non-existent. That also means Mom and Dad have to work and can't travel home to see Grandma and Grandpa. Peter is almost 2, so he won't realize their absence yet..but the time will come. I think this is the time to appreciate the efforts of all of those who work on holidays. Think of the job emergency officials have on the holidays. I remember riding along with some EMS workers while I was working on Thanksgiving a few years ago and they covered horrible tragedies (car wrecks, heart attacks). It was very sobering and it made me appreciate just how terrific my job really is.... I may be working, but I'm surrounded by my family and my extended family here at KVUE. I'm truly thankful!
So, eat some extra turkey and enjoy your time off...because not everyone is as fortunate.
