Happy Thanksgiving

My good sleep streak ended because hubby snored so much and so loudly it came into my dream - haha, but not haha.  Up since 2:30 -- falling back into that almost sleep several times to have him give a HUGE snore burst.

Ugh.

That said, I'm going to rally to have a great time today.  Only "work" left is the mac & cheese and sausage stuffing.  All prepped, both should take less than an hour to pull together.

My son made my family's apple pie recipe and added a little oven fire from the drippings yesterday -- oops.  We all Face Timed for the turkey prep from a favorite go-to technique (food network years ago).  That was fun -- included, but far, far away from a raw bird (!!)  It's not Thanksgiving without a cooking story.

Made it to the dump yesterday.  We had to go to the real-deal dump though and it was kind of scary (!!)  No flat tire from DRIVING into the dump area and the chair is gone.  I hope big trash pickup resumes from home service at some point soon (if we need it).  Eye opening at the level of waste.  I need to do better individually.

I haven't figured out my outfit for today.  Dressing as Future Me helps me act the part and show up how I want to show up.  I want to be a little dressy, but it's going to be WARM in the kids' house.  Oven, crowd of people/dogs and big sunny windows.  Most of my choices are long sleeved and might be too uncomfortable.  I didn't end up trying anything on yesterday.  Game day decision and a little rushed this morning.

On a Christmas note ... the wreaths I ordered for the front doors are too small.  Guess this company measures from leaf span, not wreath size.  I'm taking 2 to Asheville, but had an extra so I "decorated" my office.  I'll get new wreaths for GA next year when the choice I want is back in stock.




I hope you have a wonderful day filled with good things.  I'm thankful and excited for some new traditions today.  Later gators.
