Halloween is over and my neighbors are putting up Christmas decorations! October is Halloween. December is Christmas. November is Thanksgiving, but what happened to Thanksgiving? It is time to thank God for all the good things you have, like family and friends. To make it simple and cost-effective here are some suggestions: Turn the jack-o-lantern around and now you have a pumpkin. Paint a turkey on the back side of your outdoor ghost and a pilgrim on the back side of your witch. Just turn them around and you have decorations for Thanksgiving. Use the bales of hay you already have. That way you can have Thanksgiving decorations and not have to buy or store more things. It is time to think about things you are grateful for and to be with family and friends. Please, let’s celebrate Thanksgiving with outdoor decorations. It is an important holiday also.

You cannot stand your friend's partner. Do they still get a wedding invitation?

You are planning a small wedding and strongly dislike the person your longtime friend has been dating. Inviting them would make you uncomfortable, but excluding only that partner would embarrass your friend.

Whose comfort should govern a celebration centered on you?
