LETS GET THE PARTY STARTED

Oh dear God, here it goes again, I have been nominated to host Thanksgiving at our home again for the third year in a row-thanks go to my five lovely sisters who selected me to be the hostess with the mostess. I wasn’t even at the family function when all of this was going down. “Her house is perfect-just big enough-3100 sq ft to hide out and get lost in”, “great steaming hot tub”, “an awesome, huge Sony TV for the football game and the huge kitchen”, “the kids can all stay up stairs and play,while the adults can hang low downstairs”. “a great place for a party”. Oh yes, I can hear them now sighing in relief that their homes won’t get ransacked this year– Cheers to me (: I’m really trying hard to force a smile here.

I guess it’s time to stop procrastinating and get down to business now.
