How was your Thanksgiving Day?

Went to church for Mass. Fr. gave a homily. It was probably a good one, but who can tell? Fr. is Mexican, has an accent way thicker than cutting it with a knife would do, you’d need a chainsaw. My ears are a bit slow. Can never pick out more than 2 words per sentence, on a good day. Just offer it up as a penance, and try to meditate on the gospel reading. God is good whether I can hear the homily or not. Thanks to all priests so we can have mass on Thanksgiving.
