    My neighbor is having his usual open house Wednesday night. Snacks, beverages. I'll be walking there and stumbling home.

    Thursday at my sister's house.
    Turkey (I have no clue how big....I'm sure it will feed an army)
    Potatoes
    Stuffing
    Baked squash
    Turnip
    Cranberry relish
    Green bean casserole
    Pumpkin pie
    Peas in a Can pie (pecan pie....my nephews thought we were saying Peas in a Can so it stuck)
    believe it or not, we don't "need" anything. that is only the spoiled brat in us trying to fill some temporary solution to an emptyness that does not exist.

    3) Watching football with more drinks until I get hungry again
    4) Eating more
    5) Watching more football with drinks

    not very exciting. just going to my parents' house with my brother and my grandma. luckily my brother is inviting a friend of his this year, so at least it will be a bit more interesting. And we are frying a turkey for the first time, so we'll see how that goes! I've invited my friend and her sister to join us also, but I haven't heard back from them yet.

    4) Gym and hanging out again on Wednesday

    Thanksgiving

    8) Watching some football/any sort o
    9) Going to my other Aunt's house for Thanksgiving with my mom, dad, sister and my dad's side of the family

    heading to upstate with the fam to hit my mother in law's house...1st thanksgiving since my father in law passed...this was his favorite holiday so it will be a bear to drink through it...will be playing alice's restaurant every hour on the hour beginning at noon and not stopping until about 9-10pm. sounds silly, but it gets funnier each hour (and the cumulative cocktails don't hurt either!!!)
    I love to turn you on

    actully going for the big traditional feast this year...first time in a looooonnnngggg time. nowadays we usually do small/local, all adults, dinner out. this year, my local sis is going away, so instead, hubby and i are heading to my older sis's house in jersey, bringong mom and a cuz....see all my nephews, the whole shebang. not a fan of thanksgiving food, but it's been years since i ate turkey on thanksgiving, so it'll be novel. besides, lots of wine makes everything good...and i do love pumpkin pie. :mrgreen:
    Stay with me...
    Let's just breathe...


    I am myself like you somehow
