At the Thanksgiving table, 6-year-old Tommy squirmed in his seat. “Grandma,” he asked, “did you have turkeys when you were little? Or were dinosaurs still around?” The room burst into laughter, but Grandma Bea played along. “Oh, Tommy, turkeys were *just* starting to replace dinosaurs on the menu back then!” Tommy’s older sister, Lucy, joined in. “Grandpa, did they even have Thanksgiving when you were young?” Grandpa Sam stroked his chin. “Not really. Back then, we just ate whatever we could catch—like squirrels!” “Eww!” Tommy shrieked. “You ate squirrels?” “Well,” Grandpa said with a wink, “only on special occasions.” Then little Mia spoke up. “Grandma, why do we eat turkey anyway? Why not pizza?” Grandma Bea chuckled. “Because turkeys don’t deliver!” As everyone laughed, Grandpa added, “And back in *my* day, we had to chase the turkeys ourselves—uphill, both ways, in the snow!” The kids giggled uncontrollably, and Lucy asked, “What are you thankful for, Grandpa?” Grandpa Sam smiled. “For questions that make me laugh, food that makes me full, and family that makes life worth living.” The table grew quiet for a moment—before Tommy asked, “But seriously, what does squirrel taste like?”

How are you feeling about the upcoming holiday season? Thanksgiving is upon us this week and how are you planning to spend it? Here in US , it's Nov. 28 this year and many people spend it with family, it may not be exactly as you see it on TV, big turkey with all the fixings, tons of family with kids running around. Perhaps you have attended or hosted something similar. Now it is 2024 and people have moved, perhaps you no longer live near relatives (like me), or you just don't want all the drama that some holidays bring. Or maybe you just don't celebrate it and only plan to go shopping. What ever your situation, Wisdom Warriors is here to support you. Here is a short video that I hope you enjoy. Then, share a your plans, or better yet share a memory. I have one that I will share in the comments below.

I finally got around to getting that video done I wanted to do last week. Just got tired up trying to get educated on how to better use all the technology we have at our fingertips. This is Age is Just a Number, let me know your thoughts. It started out one direction and ended up another. But that's okay. I figured it out better for next time.
