turkey

It seems that whenever there is a family gathering, the teenagers congregate to the computer room. I discovered that one of my nieces has an open dairy. She has written over 400 hundred entires. She is just like me. It was fun checking the history to see where they traveled on the net. Nothing bad just a few porn sites–just kidding. I let them read a few of my diary entries. The next day I made a few of my entries private. I don’t need my entire family reading my thoughts.

It’s monday night and I have a 10 lb young turkey in the oven, potatoes on to boil, Costco $5.99 pumpkin pie in the fridge, Stove Top stuffing waiting to be prepared, left over yams that no sister wanted to claim and take home, and an assortment of opened wines just waiting for me to finish off..You see I was so busy playing the part of “miss perfect hostess” so busy that I didn’t have time to eat on Thanksgiving. BB and I decided to have our own little party tonight.

I was up before the sun on Thanksgiving day and started preparing for the grand entry. Making the house company clean in other words throwing all the dirty clothes in the closet, all the “where does this cluttering stuff go” in the garage of course–nobody should be looking in there, putting all the bedroom toys away in the bedside table, no one should be snooping through there right? BB was assigned the task of cleaning up the yard, and raking the leaves. He thought it was kinda cool leaving the leaves in a big pile in the middle of the yard. He said it gives the picture perfect affect of a Norman Rockwell Thanksgiving. He also had the daunting task of ridding the magazines out of his son’sbathroom. He wasn’t to keen on going under the sink and reaching for them — some how they accumulated under there and we have been to afraid to enter into his sacred space and mess with his manhood. This bathroom was off limits due to sacred grounds.

I kept busy the entire time with 101 things on my mind and things that needed to be done. There was no time to hold the baby, eat, drink, sit and chill out with my beautiful nieces, hang with my sisters. I was so busy making sure everyone else was having a good time. So, tonight is my night to enjoy a yummy dinner and a movie -Bruce Almighty.- Happy Thanksgiving!!
