If so, you can DM me. My husband's work gave out turkeys and fixings and he had already purchased everything he needed. Not that he wouldn't use the doubles, but he would love to donate it to someone who could use it. He would deliver it.

Thanks!!

You are wonderful for offering, hopefully someone will be blessed with your gift. Maybe you could find a food bank to donate it to?

This is the kind of message I`ve been trying to get into peoples heads for quite some time now.

YOU and your husband are on the right track in helping to make a better society in our community. Helping those in need is a moral obligation for every human being, unfortunately there`s far too many out there who don`t seem to understand the common sense of this kind of a structural change
to help fix the mess this place is in.
With people like you on the Bandwagon, a difference starts.

THANK YOU and may God bless the homeless and those in need!

I would assume a lonely bum needs that Thanksgiving dinner more than a family (who have each other at least). Finding a bum in LV area is as easy as 2+2, or you are looking for some kind of "rag to riches" upwardly mobile family who'll retell stories about your Turkey generosity for generations to come sitting in front of fireplace in their 500k McMansion? Saying something like "If not for that Turkey dinner, attention, etc. we would never have all of this..."?

Not quite sure what you are saying here, but I am sure a lonely bum would not have the means to cook or serve the turkey dinner...hopefully there were shelters or churches that provided that. I was hoping to reach someone who was on the fringe...or someone who knew someone who was.

Thank you to all those who had kind words to say...I hope you all had a blessed Thanksgiving!

Kimba, what you did was a random act of kindness in which I also practice. I would ignore the former poster.

Sorry? Have you discussed this need to find fault with your shrink?

Or maybe it is just that you can't stand nice people.

Do you pull the wings off butterflies?

I am sure people were blessed with your kindness. When things look up for them I bet they will pay it forward.
