We are having Thanksgiving at our house so it will be hard core cleaning for the next couple days after work. The grocery shopping is done fortunately. Now I just have to strategize on what time all the different things need to get started cooking. My biggest fear is a super dry turkey and mushy mashed potatoes. My second biggest fear is having to touch the raw turkey. I tried to make one when I was pregnant and couldn't touch the gross bird. My mom will just have to come out early enough to get it ready for me or else tell Ben what he needs to do over the phone!!!
Madison has conferences tomorrow and I am anxious to see what her teacher has to say. She is a reading machine lately and is branching into adding and subtracting. I am glad the homework load has been light.
Ben and I are picking out new living room carpet this week. We moved a toy basket last night and discovered a melted RED popsicle on our light color carpet. It was certainly not a good color choice for kids as the little drips of milk and apple juice have left their speckles all over. Time for a little darker color. Three years was a little shorter than we had planned for this carpet to live but oh well.
It's 8:00 and both my kids are in bed. Not sleeping yet but at least in bed. I ran to the clinic yesterday morning and got some drugs for strep throat. Still a little wiped out but my throat is better. I forgot how much something as simple as a sore throat can make you tired.
Here's wishing everyone a great Turkey day, wonderful time with your family and remembrance for the many blessings we can all be thankful for.
