CTL Weekly 11.22
What are you up to this weekend before Thanksgiving? I’ve got a bunch of lists going and every day seems to include a stop at the grocery store, Costco or Trader Joe’s. Over on Instagram and Facebook I mentioned a little habit I have that makes Thanksgiving planning easier and it turns out a lot of you have the same one. And here I thought I’d invented it. Lol.
However you’re marking Thanksgiving I hope it’s a good one. And to those of you working on Thanksgiving to serve the rest of us (medical professionals, grocery store workers, movie ticket takers, first responders…), thank you! Finally, if Thanksgiving will be hard for you for whatever reason, I hope it lands gently.
Here’s what I saved to share with you this week:
