I have no idea why Thanksgiving is always on the 4th Thursday but it does give us a 4 day break. Extra days for family from out of town to join us. My children split thanksgiving and Christmas between grand parents this year I have both daughters and familys for Thanksgiving won't see them at Christmas , they will be with other grand parents, next year will have both for Christmas but not for Thanksgiving.

Nothing on the cutting table today. I've been getting to know Jack the RIPPER, and to be honest I don't think I like him much. Then I spent a little time cleaning the Studio. I've got one I'm piecing at the DM. And a few waiting in line to be quilted by the frame. Tonight I'll be working on crocheting an afgan and laying the hand applique aside for a few days. There will be little sewing for the rest of the week due to the holiday. Bummer. But I think I'll be able to take my Crocheting or my hand applique to the family dinner.

So you can have a four day weekend?
Is Friday a stat holiday?
Our Canadian Thanksgiving is a Monday. Most get a 3 day weekend, as it's a stat holiday.

Me too! .... I don't enjoy mob scenes and the TV shots always seem to look like just that. Sure, the savings would be great, but I value my life!!!!! And then to get there and discover it's gone. Not my idea of fun.
Canadian retailers have now started doing Black Friday here, to try to keep our people and their moo-la home!! Besides, I've never been convinced that the savings are there, by the time they figure their gas, hotel, food etc. as part of the tab!
