I could have made a couple more stops in Ohio and Kentucky, but I was afraid the trip would just about kill me. As it is I'll get back just in time to move from one house to another so renters can move into the one I am staying in now and then take off for two weeks to California for Christmas. This is so not like me. And I am not healthy. But I think it will be a good thing. I am looking forward to it. I need a change.

Edited to add: Re food, I have no idea. I am a guest. I will probably provide some wine and beer. Good beer. ;)

You keep your bud I will keep mine:) I would say lets buddy up and take a road trip together,but you are heading to the places I'm escaping from.

I've been invited to a couple of friends, but I'll probably just work in the yard and start putting up outdoor decorations.

Adding a harvest salad, mixed baby greens, diced apple, pear, gorgonzola cheese, roasted butternut squash, toasted pecans, dried cranberries, and cornbread croutons with a Raspberry Vinaigrette j/s

Two days of the year we close the store early. Yes, we are open 365 days of the year. The days we close early are Thanksgiving and Christmas. Usually we are open from 8 AM til 3 PM, but it is always hard to get out the door at closing because of the stragglers. It is always Bevi and I on those 2 days (our employees get a paid break) so we can greet and thank the customers who have supported our business all year long. There may or may not be some special coffee for close friends /customers on those days. When we close up, there are always offers to join others for their holiday feasts but the last 2 years we have found just going home and sitting by the Glenwood was much more relaxing.

I'm doing something completely different this year than Ive ever done!

Foregoing the insanity of blood family and ran away :)

On Thanksgiving day, I'll be eating turkey and giving LOTS of thanks for all of the good things that have happened this year and for the joy in my life.

We are cooking dinner here for the first time together and with our family in our new place. Should be fun.

Thanksgiving
 
Looks like I am cooking a turkey. Ugg.

Mel C. 11-19-2016 01:07 PM

Part of the day will be with family (blood relatives). I'm hoping a good part of the day is also available to work on holiday decorating. I could use a little bright n shiny right about now.

Okay, I am trying to wrap my mind around this. I bought a small turkey, stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, and a Sara Lee apple pie. Mom will be here to help me. I am really good at cooking meat so mom will help with the rest.

I will concentrate on all the things that I am thankful for.
I hope all my friends here find something to be thankful for.

Having the essentials for life & living is so much to be thankful for.

My chosen family...I am ever so thankful for.

My friends who are like family are what I am most thankful for.

Being able to get up again another morning is amazing to me.

Red is off all week from school so she has a menu planned that is a awesome. I know we are cooking the Turkey here and then the sides at my aunt Lou's and uncle Bob's house. I have to work Friday and Saturday so no long weekend for me. However I am so looking forward to the wonderful meal and fun time with my family. I am sure we will have others show up that need a place to hang out which always makes the day even better.

Love my family.

Peace!

Hanging with Mom and :dog:. :turkeyday:

NitroChrys_Butch 11-20-2016 09:10 PM

Spending the day at My parents and with My wonderful family ...we are up to 36 now..... My mother insist on making 98% of the food... the rest of us pitch in with snack-y things... desserts and salads for later when someone feels the urge to make a sandwich.... football and family ... doesn't get much better ...

Happy and Blessed Thanksgiving to everyone...

dark_crystal 11-21-2016 08:47 AM

We are having my parents over, and any friends without other plans.

I'm on the phone with Luby's

I have been thinking about how inward I have been for quite a while.

Depression can do that to you.

My LA daughter is having dinner with her dad and his third family. My other daughter is on the other side of the country with her family.

My mom is having dinner with my brothers and their families.

Boo hoo for me.

I am volunteering for a local soup kitchen that serves people that get their one hot meal a day.

No heroics, just time to look outside myself to people that are really suffering in this world.

For me, homelessness would be the worst. So many people in this country are.

I am fortunate.

Happy Thanksgiving.

Doing dinner with my family, and then taking the dogs in our RV to go camping on the Colorado River for a few days :)

TL1 11-21-2016 12:05 PM

Going to have dinner with family and some friends who may make an appearance. They have a tendency to break out games also. Both indoors and out. (Depending on weather)
