Thanksgiving --SFO Style

Spent Thanksgiving in San Francisco with the family this year. True to form, being the die-hard east coaster that I am, I needed a few days to get acclimated to the pace and habits there. Everything is just a split second slower....calmer....and unnerving when you come from the east (and work in an industry like mine). Anyhow, I finally did get into the California groove, ended up going to the spa up in the wine country, eating organically, exercising, and making sure that all that was consumed was discarded appropriately----recycling all glass, aluminum and paper products and composting peels and organic material. It was a true escape from my everyday habits of intense working, lack of exercise, eating what is readily available versus healthy, and tragically contributing to our landfills. Sigh. But I can't beat myself up about this---I've got too much going on. I'll pull out my victim card---I'll blame it on society or my dog or the astrological sign I was born under .....ahhh...I feel better. On to the next thing.
