Thanksgiving Weekend

This Thanksgiving Weekend was different from the last several ones. Obviously, my life has changed much with Dawn's reappearance in my life, and with it comes the need to balance the time among different parties: my family, her family and her friends. It's just that I have not had many acquaintances that I care to spend time in different occasions for a while.

So, this time we had Thanksgiving dinner at Dawn's parents, Friday and Saturday at my parents and another Thanksgiving dinner at Christie's (her roommate/landlord) parents. As busy as it was, it was nice to have the sense of belonging back.
