If it is suppose to be pretty weather, think I will try to find a camping spot

my neighbor asked me over for Thanksgiving.... after less than a month of being here (at the "new" place)....I think she is feeling loner and wants someone to be there... even though she has children...they do not com over much

It isn't possible to meet my family in Chicago again this year, so I'm going to Plan B which involves a traveling companion and hopefully another wonderful time in and around Portland........

Thanksgiving
 

I have no idea what we are doing. I have some ideas but nothing planned yet. I will make it fun and different, that is the plan so far.

I am not a big fan of holidays.

In a phone call earlier this week I finally firmed up my Thanksgiving plans..:thanksgiving:

I will drive up to Portland and meet my Chicago Traveling Companion that'll be flying in. We plan to spend close to a week there, discovering new places and doing the things we just didn't have time to our last visit there.

Unfortunately these plans fell through, so it's back to the drawing board.....:turkeyday:

Spending time with friends and family during Thanksgiving in Chicago this year?
 

Make the most of your holiday in Chicago by adding these seasonal activities to your itinerary.Hop-on Hop-off Red Bus Tour, Christmas Market, ZooLights,
Thanksgiving Day Parade, Mag Mile Lights festival, and last check out the most amazing Holiday windows.


I've done all of the above and highly recommend all........

Add this to the list...

Thanksgiving is right about the time when Chicago’s famed Christkindlmarket gets going, a lovely tradition you won’t want to miss out on. It’s basically a combination of a Christmas craft fair and a German food extravaganza – two of my favorite things in one! It’s a great place to get some Christmas gifts and is a wonderful way to experience Chicago’s strong German heritage.

One fun tradition I particularly love is sipping on their delicious hot spiced cider, which comes in a collectible mug. The mug designs are different each year, too!

Getting In: Admission to Christkindlmarket is free.

BUMP.....just about two weeks now

having a few friends over..weekend is full

going over to my boss' house. To celebrate with her and her family. Awfully nice. I asked what to bring? she said something sweet and fattening... i said ok birthday cake it is... she goes oh good we can celebrate my(meaning hers) bday early. Boom I'm in!

It's a week from today so I think I'm pretty safe in saying it looks like I'll be spending Thanksgiving here on Green Acres with "Marie Callender" on cooking duty...:thanksgiving:

Looks like my fate is sealed. I am taking rolls and dessert. Now to find a bakery.

:cowboy:

"Happy Holidays" Everyone ~

Back at ya ~Ocean :hangloose:

Idk and truly idc.

I'm too damn stressed to even wanna help or even truly care.

After going on a morning drive, I will stay in my femme cave the rest of the day.

Will cook some turkey wings with string beans, rice, and some kind of dessert.

Will watch The Irishman on Netflix and binge and catch up on my favorite series, Watchmen.

Will chat with family on the phone and try not to cry when thinking of my sister.

And will count my lucky stars.

Happy Thanksgiving!
