Thanksgiving Perspective

Posted by David on Nov 22nd, 2007

Last Sunday, Amber and I were sitting on the couch watching a professional football game. One of the commentators just went off on how much he loves Thanksgiving - really because of food and football.

He said, “I love Thanksgiving. You get to eat and watch football, and eat some more and watch football, and eat some more and take a nap. It’s like the greatest day ever. How could it get any better than that. Thanksgiving is like the greatest day ever!”

Amber was sitting there with me and laughed, “Oh that is such a man’s perspective.”

It is Thanksgiving morning as I write this, and she has gotten up, straightened up the house (I helped), prepared the turkey to roast. I prepared a smaller one to smoke on the grill. She has planned and strategically coordinated the cooking and eating schedule with her mom. It is a real science. She seems to be fine, but so far I don’ think it would be classified as the best day ever!

As for me, I am ready for a little food and football. Oh what a great day, at least from a man’s perspective. Oh ladies, don’t worry, I will help clean up the dishes.

God bless. Happy Thanksgiving!
