I am Thankful for...

I am very thankful for Mythbusters marathons on Discovery channel and DVR'D episodes of Good Eats that engross the hooligans while I laid on the couch dozing and fighting the nausea. Child #3 feels great... Me... Not so much.

Also thankful my kids roll with change... Turkey Tomorrow!!! Hopefully...

Night before Turkey Day

Okay so the Turkey is brining, the Potatoes are cooked and cooling, the Dressing fixin's are cut just need to cook, Cranberry dipping sauce done, Pumpkin Cinnamon rolls are baking... I can't believe I'm so well prepped for tomorrow and its only 11:30 PM.

Of course I had to speak to soon...

Child #3 just came downstairs after throwing up in his bed. Poor little one. Guess we won't be doing Operation Turkey tomorrow or going to the park to play with friends. Best laid plans of mice and men...

A few rambling moments from earlier today...

Earlier I was listening to the foursome singing offkey and a smash version of Jingle Bells, Rudolph and a song I can't quite put my finger...

So I just spent 5 minutes chatting with Hubby on IM and Child #3 and Child #4 just wiped out an entire 2 POUND container of strawberries!! Seriously!?! The entire container? You'd think I never feed these hooligans.

Why we remember Veteran's Day...

"Their life's work is our security and the freedom that we too often take for granted. Every evening that the sun sets on a tranquil town; every dawn that a flag is unfurled; every moment that an American enjoys life, liberty and the pursuit of happiness -- that is their legacy." -- President Obama

Me about the same age many many years ago.
