How did your Thanksgiving gatherings go? Did everyone avoid just politics? Anyone see any changes in their families outlook? Did you have any sore losers not show up this year? How did this year compare to recent years?
Please share your wins and disappointments. I think it's important we see the progress we've made. Maybe for some here, nothing changed, but I think it helps to know there's hope. Those stubborn people in your circle are going to see they're outnumbered.

Wow. I'm not sure I ever experienced that
Least harmful event was a paintball match where he(as a teen) heard the pop of the gun turn and then.. everything slowed down so he sat there and watched the paint ball heading to him and watched how its surface kinda buckled a lil with the wind pressure and it was wobbling lol.. then he just moved out of the way and it hit the tree.. I mean, it only takes a sec for that paintball to fire and hit but, he said it made him laugh at how silly the thing looked as it was flying toward him. lol. had all the time in the world to observe it, and move out of the way. Scariest was youngest sister when it went off the road and down a steep hill and was heading at a tree, things slowed down though, and she was able to correct the car to miss the tree and hit a barbed wired fence and thick bushes. Said she felt totally calm and her mind was calculating the amount she had to turn and hit then release break and .. again only took a few secs but, she had all the time she needed to avoid a head on with the tree.
