Thanksgiving
(Edgar Albert Guest, 1881-1959)
Gettin’ together to smile an’ rejoice,
An’ eatin’ an’ laughin’ with folks of your choice;
An’ kissin’ the girls an’ declarin’ that they
Are growin more beautiful day after day;
Chattin’ an’ braggin’ a bit with the men,
Buildin’ the old family circle again;
Livin’ the wholesome an’ old-fashioned cheer,
Just for awhile at the end of the year.
Greetings fly fast as we crowd through the door
And under the old roof we gather once more
Just as we did when the youngsters were small;
Mother’s a little bit grayer, that’s all.
Father’s a little bit older, but still
Ready to romp an’ to laugh with a will.
Here we are back at the table again
Tellin’ our stories as women an men.
Bowed are our heads for a moment in prayer;
Oh, but we’re grateful an’ glad to be there.
Home from the east land an’ home from the west,
Home with the folks that are dearest an’ best.
Out of the sham of the cities afar
We’ve come for a time to be just what we are.
Here we can talk of ourselves an’ be frank,
Forgettin’ position an’ station an’ rank.
Give me the end of the year an’ its fun
When most of the plannin’ an’ toilin’ is done;
Bring all the wanderers home to the nest,
Let me sit down with the ones I love best,
Hear the old voices still ringin’ with song,
See the old faces unblemished by wrong,
See the old table with all of its chairs
An I’ll put soul in my Thanksgivin’ prayers.
Green Party!!
November 24, 2009 — gogreennsaveWant to party at some swank place, but it’s too far from home base? Want to do a tailgate party without the hassle? Have a bunch of people who want to drink, and no one that wants to drive? Want to spend a long day somewhere, and dread the drive back? Want to a scavenger hunt, but don’t want to send 10 cars out driving around?
That’s okay. Rent a limo-bus! 
They can either pick everyone up at home or at some central location. You can party on the bus on the way to the party and on the way home from the party! If you do your homework and pick the right company they will even help you figure out your party plans.
The cost is extremely reasonable. Many of the companies can offer discounts you won’t find elsewhere because of their relationships with local businesses. This will make your holiday party a lot safer and a much greener option too!
Here in Southwest Florida I recommend First Class Limo Bus! I had a great time going to the casino with a group of friends. The owner is honest, fair, and responsible. They are a great company that I would trust with all my events!
Charity Shopping
November 23, 2009 — gogreennsaveDid you know you can do your holiday shopping and donate 
to charity at the same time? It doesn’t cost extra, and takes very little time to get started. Here are some sites you can use.
Of course don’t forget that when you shop at second hand stores, you are also supporting charity. Do good, feel good!
Did I miss any shopping for charity that you know of? Let me know!
