Pros and Cons of being home for Thanksgiving Part 1

I've been travelling back home for Thanksgiving every mid November for several years now. All together over these years, I have amassed over 30 days of quality Thanksgiving holiday time. Without even mentioning the holiday itself, there are both good and bad things to this wonderful season of food, family, and more food.

Pro

Being back at home with family

Con

Looking like a zombie following the horrendously boring 10-13 hour drive to get there

(The amount of time depends on if I'm driving. Because, I guarantee you that if I am, I will get pulled over for going between 2-5 miles over the speed limit)

Case in point: pulling into Sacramento in 2010. Looking good...

2. Pro

There is a high of 68 degrees today at home

Con

When I get back to Provo, it will feel like -68 degrees.

3.Pro

Because my parents have recently purchased an elliptical, I can stay in shape!

Con

Yeah, let's be honest, that's not going to happen.

4.Pro

I have all the free time in the world!

Con

I'm already bored.

5. Pro

There is so much delicious food

Con

There is so much delicious food

6. Pro

Spending time with the people I love

Con

None!
