Thanksgiving is my favorite of all the holidays. I love the cooking, cleaning and making plans to celebrate! We've had several very stressful holidays in my family over the past years, and for the first time in many, my entire family will gather at my parents home! I'm grateful they are making the effort to travel, our parents are elderly and have been ill this year, it's time we gathered together!
I'm on call, the holidays are a stressful, emotional time and I no doubt will be working.
This may sound lame, but hear me out? if you are alone and/or lonely, please try to find a community outreach that needs volunteers this day? I've never had such a wonderful experience (gut wrenching yes) as giving to those in need and being with those truly less fortunate on a special holiday. They gave to me, and opened my eyes. Try it, you may really like it 
Peace
