More Than A Day

The man isn't in town. So we miss Thanksgiving.

But I had an awesome evening with 3 lovely girls. 2 big ones and a very sweet lil Missy.

Truth be told, I was completely exhausted from the work week. It's been a long couple of days. But this dinner at the friend's was something I looked forward to all week. The thought of it cheered up dreary hours of sitting in briefings after briefings.

All satiated from noodles, beer, strawberries, durian puffs and U.d.d.e.r.s' Kopi-C, it was just warm to sit and chat and watch lil Missy snooze, unperturbed by our loud voices. I drifted in and out of conversation. I was really comfortably drowsy.

I couldn't help but play with a very enthusiastic Latte. He's a little sweetheart lah. All that playing seemed to have tire him out a little. Well, it certainly flicked the 'sleep' switch in my brain!

If I didn't drag myself home, I was going to end up sleeping on the very cozy couch. Heeee.

More Than A Day

As Thanksgiving Day rolls around,

It brings up some facts, quite profound.

We may think that we're poor,

Feel like bums, insecure,

But in truth, our riches astound.

We have friends and family we love;

We have guidance from heaven above.

We have so much more

Than they sell in a store,

We're wealthy, when push comes to shove.

So add up your blessings, I say;

Make Thanksgiving last more than a day.

Enjoy what you've got;

Realize it's a lot,

And you'll make all your cares go away.
