I just heard that some of Minnesota could get snow this week.  Which makes my heart hurt and my mind is wanting me to head to Realtor.com to find a warmer location.  Actually, I'm pretty sure I can feel my fingers freeze as I am typing right now.  While I go find another layer to bundle up with, some huge news just showed up from a gigantic retail chain with stores in Minnesota, Iowa, Illinois, Wisconsin, and throughout the United States.  Looks like they are showing some love to their employees this Thanksgiving season!

I have a feeling that we are going to be hearing more announcements from other companies soon but I applaud Kohl's for being one of the leaders for putting their employees first this holiday season.  According to an announcement made on October 11th, 2022 on the Kohl's corporate website, they are going to close stores on Thanksgiving Day.
