Hubby got his leave. So thankful for that. But I still don't know for sure if he's going to make it home. He's trying to catch a MAC flight. Which is kind of like flying Space-A. Except it's on a military plane. So even less comfortable than flying commercial. I'll know about a week from today if he makes it on the plane. Cross your fingers and toes for me everyone.

My boy is not pooping. I'm not sure he's pooped in the last week. The last time he pooped was sometime during the weekend a week ago. He pooped in his sleep. Yeah. I guess I need to call the doctor and see what we can do. I have no idea what to do any more. He's still doing well in school and he loves it. He's got a cold right now, no fever but a runny nose and a cough. He will hardly take cough medicine but I can get some in him about twice a day. He will take allergy medicine so he gets that for sure.

I have a cold too. If someone gets a cold and is around me then I get it too. It usually turns into bronchitis. Yesterday I felt it really move into my chest. So I went and got the other kind of Mucinex. I love that stuff it really works. We're having family thanksgiving here. I don't really have the room but my mother in law's house is just short of being a hoarding situation and I really dislike going over there. Plus there is so that the booger can get into that he doesn't need to be in it's just best to have it here.

Christmas is coming and I am not looking forward to it or ready for it. The shopping, the decorating, the rushing around. I'm just not ready for it this year. I know part of it is because Hubby is gone. The other part is family. There is so much drama. Hubby's family well my MIL has 2 sisters, one is great. Love her to pieces. She has 1 daughter and 4 grandchildren. They live in the city and we rarely see them. Aunt comes up for major holidays but her daughter and family rarely come up. I do try and get down there and see them occasionally. The other aunt is a mooch. Well she's worse than a mooch. Because she thinks she'd doing everyone a favor while mooching. She lives with great grandma and doesn't help out with any bills. Her family has made the bills larger than normal, grandma is on a fixed income and is barely squeaking by. Aunt plays it as she's staying there to take care of grandma. No grandma is taking care of her. She's almost 50 years old and cannot live on her own they've been evicted out of almost every place they've lived since Hubby and I have been married. Their oldest child lives on her own pays her own bills and works hard for it. She's going to get married next year and is taking care of herself. The youngest child is worthless. He's a senior in high school, he doesn't work. He won't even mow grandma's yard without bribery. Hubby and his brother took care of it whenever grandma asked and made time for it while they were working. My brother in law worked as soon as he was legally able but still took care of mowing the yard and anything else grandma needed on his days off. I hate dealing with hubby's family. if I could just deal with part of them I would be much happier.

My family well we won't be without our own drama. We won't be seeing Mom's family for thanksgiving. They are having thanksgiving on thanksgiving and I just can't make it. But Mom and Dad are supposed to come here. Depends on Dad's new job if he's here or not. I know that my brother and his wife will show up but I'm hoping my niece will swing by, I mean I hope that my brother will be able to get her from her mother for a while that day.

My bestie is getting married soon. I'm excited for her, but I'm worried. She's only been with this guy for 3 or 4 months and now they're getting married. I have concerns but she says this is what she wants and she loves him. He's a nice guy I like him but They don't really know each other. He's 9 years younger, married once before and works his butt off to take care of his family. I don't know. I'm just worried for her. I don't want to see her broken hearted again.

thanksgiving, family, bestie, school, hubby, leave, booger
