    I used to be a night owl, but in the past 6 months, I have become an early riser. Used to go to bed around 2:00 am, but now I am in bed at 9:30 or 10:00, and I read until 10:30 or 11:00 and get up at sunrise, around 7:30 am. Like it much better!!

    🦃 How Do You Celebrate Thanksgiving? 🍂

    Hey MB! I was terribly disappointed. The only cranberries offered was in the form of a cranberry/jalapeno/cream cheese spread for crackers!! I am gonna get the REAL cranberries (shaped like a can) when I get my groceries next week. Maybe 2 or 3 cans!!
