How did your day go today? Did you get together with family or friends and have a nice feast? Did you say "Happy Thanksgiving" to a few people? Well, it is the Holiday Season again and I would like to remind everyone that while many of us are here struggling to sell real estate there are people overseas fighting for us who are "roughing it" a bit more than most of us are.

If you would like to send a holiday greeting card to an American soldier you can send a card to:

Holiday Mail for Heroes

P.O. Box 5456

Capitol Heights, MD 20791-5456

Postmark your holiday card to this address no later than Dec. 10. Cards postmarked after Dec. 10 will be returned to the sender.

If you would like to send a thank you, get well, Christmas, or other holiday card to an injured soldier you can send one of these anytime to:

Hi Derrick,

This is so nice of you. I am going to send some letters to both addresses. We don't realize when we are celebrating that others are still out there keeping our country free and safe. Bless you.

Derrick, great little reminder and I hope lots of people will respond! I do want to point out though that the address for Walter Reed Army Medical Center has changed - due to BRAC it is now the Walter Reed National Military Medical Center Bethesda (WRNMMCB):

8901 Rockville Pike

Derrick, I had a wonderful Thanksgiving Dinner with family and friends and I have a lot to be grateful for today. I would be happy to send thank you cards, get well cards and Christmas Cards to soldiers who are fighting in the war or who have been injured in the war. Thanks for the mailing address.

Derrick - You've given all a great idea to do something for others that are protecting us. Thanks for sharing the information so we can all send a holiday greeting to those that are serving in our armed forces.

I hope you had a great Thanksgiving :)

T for time to be together, turkey, talk and tangy weather

H for harvest stored away, home and hearth and holiday

A for Autumn's frosty art, and abundance in the heart

N for neighbors and November, nice things, new things to remember

K for kitchen, kettle's croon, kith and kin expected soon

S for sizzles, sights and sounds, and something special that abounds

That spells THANKS for joy in living
