Holidays are not happy, family times for everyone

@becsbuddy When I was in law enforcement, I usually took someone's shift if I was scheduled off at holidays, so they could be with family and children. When I was training racehorses on the racetrack, there was usually a special racecard on Thanksgiving, and the backstretch kitchen would put on a feast for everyone. Still giving as I can, in ways that I can.

Hi @gingerw, wow.....what a helpful mission. I would love the racehorses. What came to me was the need to focus on shelter dogs. I created an event titled “Christmas Eve for the animals” to bring more attention to their need for a forever home.

As the years progressed folks would bring their adopted dogs back for a bit of a meetup with others from prior years. Their stories encouraged more to consider adoption. Sort of like a special “Connect”.

So are you cooking for a crowd on Thanksgiving? Hope someone is cooking for you. Chris
